Half way home...

I have seen some of you guys talk about your truck being paid off or you just made the last payment and such. Well, I just wrote the check for my 36th payment on my truck, which finishes the 1st book of 2. Halfway there anyway. I hope I have as much fun and trouble free operation on this second book as I had on the first one, that's for sure.

Wait til you write that last one. You will think you just hit the jackpot...especially when you don't have to write it again the next month.

Hang in there and congrats on the half way mark!

They are doing well. Caylin and Kelly are still "doing the horse thing", yes. In fact we are up to 9 horses and Kelly is running a lesson program. Preston is getting into motocross and Caylin wants to as well, so we may be scaling back on the number of horses we have in order to better facilitate the cost of his hobby.

Sweet! Well I'm thinking that due to financial reasons I'll probably take out a second loan on my truck and put that money into mods and maintenance when the time comes.

And you only thought horses were expensive...... the reason I say this is because I know you, and y'all dont do anything half way (9 horses). youll have a custom trailer to tote the bikes, a new set of tools for the bikes, extra engines in case said bikes break down during a weekend of racing. Riding gear, tires, fuel, shall I go on...... I wish them well, and I know you will teach them right, and may your insurance premiums stay low.

It may be time to trade the camper in on a toy hauler, Hmmm, do I see a method to your madness.
