Stops on a dime, even got his E brake adjusted for him.

He has a 'clicking' in his drive line when he accelerates from a stop. Gonna check that out today. Then were gonna go to the badlands and shoot. If we are lucky we may even find a Chaikwa fossil or two...

My little sister in law took a picture of Aiden and Conners boots. Tel bought a pair for Conner (well when he gets here) and surprised me with em. Mary Katherine snapped a pic and it came out awesome. Tel entered it in a local photo competition. If yall would like to vote (those who have a FaceBook) just "like" the photo site and then post a comment on the picture saying you are voting for it.
There happy now???

Heck you'll forget all about it by tomorrow anyway.

Man I had to wear gargles just to get my back up cam routed the other day. Nothing like a 5lb block of clay to the eye to ruin your day!

Didn't even get that far. Mud truck died AGAIN just as we got there. Pouring buckets, got 2" of rain in 3 hours, almost didn't get the International out of the field, (took that to the mud run too so if anyone broke something I could help them out). On the way home the International 'bucked' a couple of times, like a gasser will do when it's cold, so now there's something wrong with that pig too. I'm ready to leave the torch burning under the gas tank of the mud truck, get drunk and say the heck with it all!

You've used that line before. Come up with something original next time or don't bother!

Another lovely day comes to an end.

May I have my head back please!



Evening Yall

Working on a new lil project. Putting a Double DIN radio in Dads '02. I got the radio to mount in the dash, now working on the finer points of bezel modification. He saw my new Kenwood setup with the dual backup cams and wants one. I think its gonna come out pretty nice... Probably do a write up too for the 2nd gen guys if anyone over there would like the info.
