Nah,,just a grasskhana,which is bound to be held..just with a Kiwi twist..Last year the swines hooked up an electric fence which the competitors had to hook up and unhook the ''gate'' before they could continue.. I gave my buddy a pair of thick leather gloves to use,,and he got a quick splash with a bucket of water to make sure he felt it... Shocking stuff... Yup,still here,,going soon..Will get pix..

Just got back from Florida this evening. Was in Orlando, went to the the Speed World drag strip one day. Also met my brother and one of our buddies and went to Daytona and saw the Gator 200 dual races and that same evening went up to a World of Outlaws dirt track..... that was an exciding race.
Found a new job if I ever need it..... see picture

Welcome back from down South, Tom!!!! One heck of a highly qualified pair of scouts, maybe the 7th Cavalry could use a new pair??????

This is all Severson's fault.......................he asked the question which FORCES me to do something to post..............................so I made a little trip today to pick up this pile of junk.......just what I needed, another Model A

Looks like your shop just got smaller

Yes, we can see the marks where he twisted your arms! ROFL..

Spent the day finishing fabrication of some simple traction bars for my '53. Was the first real use of my welder. Had not tried flux core before, welds came out sturdy but not as pretty as I would have liked. Got everything fitted, now need to take it all apart for paint. I have been taking pictures, once it is all done I will post them. All in all a good day. Tomorrow is my wife's birthday, we are going to see Elvin Bishop and his band at an afternoon show at a local club. Elvin always throws a great party:

Man, you guys make me feel like family-----I get blamed for everything by them, too!!!!!!

Well you know Dave...."If the shoe fits"

Well it's already another weekend since this started Dave, but I'm off this weekend! Trying to get the house ready, before leaving on Wednesday for Flaggstaff for a week. Had an old buddy drop in yesterday for lunch which lead to a few strong Pale ales, and no further work! Did manage the usual fun stuff of laundry and mowing the lawn, before he got here, but was excited to have today to myself to try and work on the truck, until the rain showed up, after three months of hiding. I guess it's planning to stick around until we get back from Arizona! It's a welcome relief to get some, it's been a record dry winter here and up in the sierras.
Bob that's a nice looking pile of "junk" you got!
Tom - great to see you on here too. How's the old goldwing running? Or the Model T?

Its POETS day here again,already,,,well,it is down here,anyway.. And I havent forgotten the pix,,just that the camera battery is flat,and the charger has said goodnight,so,until I get another battery charger,pix are unobtainable..But it was a good weekend..
