It's doing quite well - I left it to itself over the weekend, so it could get familiar with it's new surroundings... when I let it out of it's box at the shop, it seemed very comfortable - although most of the time it just sits there!

Anyway, do you want me to "enhance" it with drills & taps before I give it back this weekend? Just let me know how many of what you want where & I'll Git-R-Dun...

Huh? What's this? Care to 'splain'........
Or is it a semi-secret HP enhancer for the weekend?

Well, I'm bringing the new LazarSmith airhorn to Alvarado this weekend, and I needed a 2nd Gen airhorn to map coordinates off of, in case we could just stock one part # for both 24V & HPCR engines.

Brian let me borrow his spare, and I can augment it to return the favor...

Just a friendly reminder for this weekend....

Not sure how many are for sure staying in the Trailer.....but please pack your own bed rolls, pillows, mats for the floor etc.

Im sure I will grill some of my usual walmart burgers at some point.

Charlie are you planning on any chili this go round?


So far it's looking like the weather will be cooperating.

And it looks like I will be the proud owner of a set of Lazarsmith Traction bars this weekend too!

I'll be trying out my new addition to my truck bed camping setup. I procured an EZ-Up to put a roof over my head. Not as fancy as Rob's setup with the full netting, but better than laying in the open bed.

They work great! As long as the rain ain't blowing sideways.

Will that be before or after you hook to the sled?

I wasn't planning on chili. The food at the arena was pretty good last year and I figure doughnuts for breakfast. The burgers sound good and we can all pitch in some $$$.

Justin....I was looking at those at Academy! What size did you get?
FYI, Alvarado has covered parking if needed. but they leave the lights on all night under the roofing so EZ up will offer nice shade!

I believe it's 10x10, but I'd have to double check.

This was a freebie from the g/f's step-dad. He has a few of them that he's picked up at garage sales or from auctions. I wasn't going to spend the money for a "brand name" EZ-Up, I was just going to get an el cheapo since this is my only use for it right now. But since he was offering, I figured I couldn't pass up a nice one. Guess I probably need to unpack it before Friday night and make sure i'm not missing anything important.

If that's happening, you won't even see me in the bed of the truck.
