I hate you!!!

Just got back from the Jeep Rocks & Road Tour. They have a small course with mud pit for your enjoyment. A separate area with side incline, articulation trenches, logs, rip rap, tall hill for you to drive their vehicles. The wife and I each drove a 4 door Wrangler and the Cherokee Unlimited. There was a balance ramp with a Liberty for you to try also. There was road tests too. Rock climb, small jeep go karts for the kiddies. FREE too. Not much else there. Today is practice day for the air show so some of that was going on.

Tomorrow and Sunday you can drive your non Jeep on their road course and see the air show.

Ihop in wallyworld typically has some pretty decent scenery as well for those interested in breakfast. I won't be able to make it. That's just my recommendation.

I think the IHOP in Wallywold works well because it is about the middle of the state for everyone.

Tina likes the scenery there too. LoL...

She also likes the waitress that handed me a plate of bacon for her.
Who DOESN'T like Bacon???

Too bad I'll be working tomorrow morning.

ok so no breakfast tomorrow.

andy, NOTHING happened. pump truck got to us late, not that it mattered because concrete dicks decided we were not going to get concrete today. we did get some augers repaired, but that was just wasting time work. our only objective for the day and a big priority for the entire job was getting this one foundation poured. then to top it off it was nothing but traffic all the way home. monday will be an early day!
