Yeah, it could have been up to 5-6 weeks ago, when I last checked the air in the tire!

Pat, Sorry to hear about the tire issue. That sucks.
Amanda, Glad to see you on here. Now get the old man busy! Glad to have you here. So that ride you took Sunday is it a trail ride or regular roads? I would love to go sometime.

Good morning everybody!

Afternoon, everyone! First day back to work after being gone nearly 3 weeks SUCKS! But I got through it, and am mostly caught up on the paperwork.

It IS hot outside...just puttered around the estate for about 20 minutes and am SOAKED with sweat. I think I'll enjoy my Cherry Coke Zero and the AC for the remainder of the evening...

It was hot, cuz i was sweating like a mad man in moments, but I never really seemed to feel the heat. It was odd, and deceptively dangerous. Good thing I didn't have much to do.

Well its back in the Mtns.. Kinda like Beauty Spot in Erwin.. but you can take your truck.. I never even put mine in 4 wheel drive.. Mom and dad had to put the 4 runner in it though.. We are talking about riding up there the next Sat or Sun afternoon Ray has off... Maybe we can make it a "family" event..
Just yell @ Ray or me and we can figure something out.. or I can tell you how to get there..
