Fiver, that sounds like an incredible trip !!! (all except the Jordan part ). One of the guys I work with just came back from there last week. Nice pictures .... most with some guy and a machine gun in them .

Be careful and enjoy yourselves .... I'm envious !!

Shortround .... them berries sound goooooood. I may have to take a stab at planting some here in a couple weeks.

S'posed to warm up today and finish thawing out ... good thing too, I was starting to miss the mud . Managed to get the top of the new FJ clobbered with some huge ice chunks falling off of a power line last night. Skeer'd the bejeezus outta me !! Gonna climb up to see if I have any dings or not. Less than 1100 miles on the clock ... I sure hope not.

Heidi .... a remote control TOILET ???? Ya know, a REAL sailor would use that space for storing their rum and just hang their butt over the side .

Gotta git at it ..

Wink I got your breakfast RIGHHHHT here, mophead...

HI TO CHAINSAW and welcome BACK TO KTHIEMANN......thanks for posting keep 'em coming.


Ohhhh Fiver! and to think you had NICE thoughts of that smiling devil ChrisR...
please let the girl breathe! wow what a fantastic time for you both! yeah, take the slow way around...(not in Jordan though) put some olive oil on your arms and face to blend in. hit a street market for me and smell the spices!!!!!

toilets.....hey Scott, mention my name and you'll get a good seat.

I love amish jerky, it's the only steer I can catch...

lazy Sunday, fiberglass projects won out today. maybe I'll take a pic of the backhoe-barn should warm up to 10 degrees- it is sunny out today

heh, 'any good sailor'...I am army, obviously. couldn't even finish an airplane size bottle of coconut rum on a romantic beach in Florida....some pirate I'd make....huh. I have been stopped by the Coast Guard once- that was enough; not looking to hang this bucket butt over ANYTHING...northern pike have teeth and can jump high out of the water.

with a more powerful toilet motor now, it did occur to me that I can now blow the dining room cushions off the seatbase......right over the holding tank/macerator. I reminded my dear friends of that. we laughed so hard.
they are going to stay on their party boat .....ya, they know me pretty well.

Let's make it a good week boys and CIN!! the DTR MIss Breakfast pageant winner..

Don't let him get you stirred up Bob. You are not one of Egypt's' antiquities. Once you spend all your money over there you'll just be an old fart that's broke. Then they'll be happy to help you leave. That sounds like another wonderful adventure Bob! Travel safe and have fun!

Think maybe that's nature's way of telling you "hey dummy, you shouldn't have sold the red truck!"

I'm strictly a land lubber, I'll dig a hole and hang my butt over it. You're starting the week on the wild side I see. Should be fun to see how this all shakes out.

Just a grab and dash on the pot of coffee. Nice day, high clouds, warm. Bagels were good coffee is hot and thick. Perfect start to a Sunday morning. Have to hit the wash rack and get ready for church. Later...

Morning all. Ive had an eventful morning. Woke up to the shreiking cries of my dog screaming. He tried to jump into the bed and didnt make it. He either just didnt have enough oomph behind it, or got tangled in the blankets and fell back down. Get down, poor little guy is yelping, obviously in a lot of pain and his left hind leg is just straight as can be. Fast forward, get him to the emergency vet finally and turns out it was just a serious sprain. He hadn't cried too much at all on the way down. He hates vets, kinda like I hate doctors so he was a bit apprehensive once we got there and became more nervous than when he had initially hurt it. So anyway, we got him all fixed up and got him some pain meds. He's just chillin now. Poor little guy, he was in a lot of pain. And the bill was mighty cheap, not like it would have mattered, but that was a big relief.

Oh well, kinda put a damper on my day since I gotta watch the little guy now. No working on the trucks for me. So I'll spend much of my day on here and watching the race. Anyone got any coffee? Its almost 10 and I havent had a drop yet. I need to catch up.

Gonna work on my business plan some more today and do little as possible for the rest of the afternoon. Chris that web sight American Cowman is a really neat place I put that on the top of my book marks and used the live links too it there is a pile of information there that will prove useful later on. Josh I just pulled two D-8 tracks down from the shop probably toping the scale at 5k a piece so about 10k for that and there is a bunch of other metal on there were fixing too haul out of here and my clutch worked flawlessly first time in a long time I have been able too shift with a load and it not bog down and take for ever too get moving. Also was the first big load on the exhaust brake and I had too speed up in 4th gear coming down long holler a big canyon road that winds down the highway to the turn off to my driver way
