a friend and i are going there tomorrow to bang out the dents in the bed, ray is up camping so we wont be hanging out there long. we just need to get that done and out of the way because we are in west point all week so we wont be able to get much done on it, then next saturday ray has a wedding. really all that is left to do other than the dents and fender flair is fix some stripped studs, remount the tire on the new wheel, and pick up some race fuel. oh and it needs a bath.

I didn't get to make it out to the GTG today. Ended up going to cabela's for a while with the family, and then out to dinner at Pepe's in machester. MMMMMMM, tasty! Found out that it is in my best interest to try to find a cheap south paw bow to get used to, since I am left eye dominant. Could be interesting. Guess I better go out and try to find myself some left handed scissors and knives while I am at it! HA! Football in the morning.

Good morning guys.
I'm off to go fix my dad's tractor, and then come home and cut the grass before it rains for 3 days again.
