Morning guys!
I had a good time VISITING (not camping, yet) the GTG in Monticello! I think I might have to go there sometime.
I got bad news yesterday! My pop had his Excursion stolen right in front of him on Sat. @ 1100 in the morning! He is furious! He can't believe it happened in the morning hours and while he and one of his operators were ten feet away. They were charging the track hoe batteries with the truck and all of a sudden the truck was flying in reverse, cables flying. He looked up and thought what the f#&K is going on. He looked at the guy and his first impression was a tow truck driver. He could not figure out why they would be moving his truck. The next thing he knew the guy put it in drive and peeled out down the street. He stopped a couple blocks down jumped out slammed the hood and peeled out again! The police said its probably gone for good. These guys sound like they knew what they were doing. He is waiting to here back from the detectives today or tomorrow.
