Thanks deereguy, I was not sure.....maybe just confused

I won't make it friday night, work and all. Guess we'll head down saturday if I can get caught up on all my projects, a bunch of OPS around the house to fix still.

So where you guys want to do our end of summer meet? I know Mark is itchin' to have it up his way!! That's fine by me though, it's not real far away. So what day is better? Ya'll might as well bring wifey and kids if you want. I'll have my kids if we do this on a saturday.

Mark, hey Mr. Vp, since, you know, your up that way Think you might be able to find a park? With grilles/pavillion or something that we can use for the day or something? I know of only one place over near hendersonville, you can see it off of Vietnam Vets parkway, like exit 6 maybe?? I won't be up that way that I know of to get phone #'s or find out info on using said pavillions/grilles and such. So who wants to nominate Mark for the job say "aye"!!!

AYE!!! I can set a date or we can think about a date.....maybe I'll set a date if I wait for you guys it'll be our before our other leg gets in the grave meet!!!!

Um maybe the 1st week of September?

Just kinda throwin that out there.

If deereguy didn't say nothin, and o well if he did, there's gonna be a pretty good pull down in lynnville the 25th of august. I thik there was 7 or 8 diesel trucks at the earlier one, I can't remember how many farm stock trucks, quite a few, but if everything goes right he (deereguy/chris) is gonna pull his 12v.

I'll be all over that one in Lynnville. I love going to that one!!! Starts at 5pm if anyone needs directions IM me or just call me, 931-446-0433 and we could meet in Columbia and I'll show you the way. Great pull, just laid back and fun as heck!! There is also one in Hillsboro, Tn?? Anybody got any idea on where that is? I know it said down I24 somewhere. Anybody know of anymore pulls post it so we will know.

KVD, first weekend of September?? Nope, no good, Eagleville tractor show and ol' timey tractor pull. Can't miss that.

I'm a part time youth pastor so sunday mornings are out for me, but could probably make a sunday afternoon work. again, just let me know the dates you are thinking and i will set up the place. how would everyone feel about bringing $10 and i'll provide burgers/soda/chips or something like that? i would just need and accurate number so i know how much food to buy. i love to grill so i am open to cooking steak or chicken as well, shawn can tell you whether i am any good with steaks!

dodgeguy, Hillsboro is southeast of Manchester probly 10 miles or so. can't tell you much more only been there about 3 times over a year ago. They're having a diesel class friday night for sure but I'm not 100% positive about saturday night. I'll be there both nights more than likely.

Alright, the date for our next meet, or our end of summer meet. How does September 8th or 9th work out for everyone? I'm not on call that weekend. If we do saturday the 8th I'll have my three kids with me so if ya got kids bring em', wife etc. we can make a family thing out of it.....if your wives/girlfriends are up to it. Mark, I'm good with the $10 thing.......I better give ya $20 or something....my boy eats like a horse!!!

I feel a saturday is better though. Don't know about you guys but I like being close to home on Sundays.....kinda come off the weekend high, prepare myself for having to go back to that nasty word place!!!

My wife ain't a big fan of the pulls either. She gets bored of sitting there watching it. That's kinda how I feel about the food network when she is watching tv!!!! I think next spring I'll start a thread on the "other" section where us Tn boys/gals can post tractor pulls as we hear about them. I missed a few cause I did'nt know about them. Now that the county fair thing is kicking off there are gonna be pulls all over the place.

Well finished up my last car tonight. Been busy like mad the last month with cars to repair. I did just shy of $4000 in business with those cars. Unfortunately of that $4000 only around $1300 of that was labor. Minus, my tool expense, etc.etc. I figure if I could triple that, say $12,000 per month, Id be staying at home more!! But, car repair is unstable unless you have a lot of customers.

So where are ya'll at?? The heat make ya'll run and hide somewhere? You guys just want to see if I'll make another screen name so me and me can have a conversation over here!!

I made it to the pull in Hillsboro friday night but not saturday. Turned out alright in diesel trucks friday night. I think there were 8 or 9. I heard somebody say something about a pull next weekend in Woodbury? Possibly gonna have diesels but I don't know for sure yet. Anybody know anything about that one?
