I was up by 04:00 and on the road to work by 05:00, at work by 05:30 and just got home a little bit ago.

Its like 6:10 PM, 13 hrs in the book and day shift to boot, glad I'm on the clock going to and from work, but its HOT in the hanger and on the flight line.

And I get to do it again tomorrow and all week trying to get these helo's done, so I can get outa here by the 18th or 19th so I can make the swap meet in Spg on the 20-22.

Pat you are in denial calling the craigslist "the list", but I like the way your thinking. lol

Won't hurt anything, unfortunately, I doubt if it'd help either . How's the MARRIED Boss Man tonight?

Evening everyone!

Got home this afternoon from Alley Springs. The kids and I spent Saturday on the Jack's Fork River with friends from the St. Louis area. It cooled down enough that we had a blast on the river without getting cooked. Here's a link to what pictures I managed to take:



My buddy and I were sitting around talking about tow vehicles and discovered that my van gets better mileage than his GMC 2500 6.0L - loaded, unloaded, everywhere. Kind of made my day, but left him just a wee bit irked.

Those Ford chairs would be cool to have, but I better lay low on the camping gear for a while. Maybe I need to start slowly, but surely building a Ford theme to the camper...

And the race begins to accumulate as much Ford merchandise as humanly possible, I'm holding off till I find those allusive Ford pj's.

Then I will buy every pair they have and re-sale them (to everyone on here) for 1/2 price, and have enough money to finally retire. LMAO

Except I need to buy ANOTHER Ford while I am at it, cause I was looking on "the list" and...... good evening to all there.

Its 04:00 Monday morning here I'm up and getting ready for work, again

Is $800 to much for a truck when all you want is the axles?

I know I'll like it, but I'm not sure how far I can get before the wife figures it out and puts her foot down.
