He's back on the island. He's gonna graduate, but I'm not sure if he'll have to come back after his 10 days boot leave or not.

As for the hemi... I've got one at home. This one needs a tune up or something.

Neighbors were probably not happy with me at all. But, all down, cut up and at the street. I'm soaked and tired. Hmmm, maybe time to hit the sack again.

Mornin, Bobby. Yeah, I got out there a little early to beat the heat. No to bad, only took me about 20 minutes. Truck is not too bad off, two dents, a couple of surface scratches. Most of them will come out no problem, I rubbed most of them and they came out. There are only a few that broke the paint, they are on the roof...

Dents...

Hey, just looked out the window - - they have been here all ready and the trees are gone, man. Hurrah. But sad - - those suckers were not cheap. Just put them in three years or so ago. I lost three triples and one single so far. Two more on the iffy side.

OK, Hat - - yard all cleaned up, too? Ya did good, man. Nasty and embarrassing to have that happen on a borrowed vehicle. Just see if I ever let you borrow mine.

Cooled off, lunch, fresh coffee and I think I hear the pool calling.

Life is good - - - especially when your work is done.

I'm about to go work on the yard. Yeah, I know. I was just going to call my insurance agency. I am tore up about it. Heck, it was in his yard, his tree.

Not really happy about it, but crap happens. It's a newer truck, too. I washed it today, and I'm gonna do the inside, too.

Mark,

Youre welcome to borrow mine whenever you need, but dont you dare let something like that happen to it.... If you break it, break it good and it had BETTER be totaled, dont come limping that thing back to me.....


Crap happens Bud! At least it was nothing that caused someone to get hurt.

I've had problems with my PB account lately. It's keeps trying to log me in to the mobile version even though I'm on the computer. It won't let me load new pictures on it either.

Evening DTR, wife is on her way home right now. Having dinner with the MIL since she's in town for a visit.

Me thinks the Celtecs are going to have some problems if they don't start rebounding. I sure want the Celtecs to take it, but I don't feel good about it.

Lazy afternoon after all the morning activity. Wife was real sweet and gave me a good backrub and pushed me out the door to the pool. Now, is that a good one or what. Think I'll keep her.

OK, gotta concentrate for them Celtecs.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Nope, not too worried about Red...

Evenin, DTR. Sufficiently smashed, got both trucks cleaned, the brush moved, and the front yard mowed. Bout to beat it. Oh, yeah... knee is screaming for the first time since I've been on leave. 12 pack in, it's still singin. Small price to pay, huh?

Evenin' all!

Had a good day off today. Went to the gym this AM and worked out the kinks. Then did a few chores around the house before going fishing with the kids and wife. Had a good time even thought they weren't biting... Took the kids to the park afterwords to burn off some more energy.

Mama made some good chicken and rice for dinner. Very tasty.

Got to go help a friend pick up a 390 Ford in a bit. He's working on an old Fairlane and found the complete 390 for next to nothing.
