Nice Pic's John and realy nice shop.
I blew my engine in my 73 VW Bug that was all tricked out in Mojave. That was back in 1980 and I could have used a friend with a nice shop. Had to get a friend Sandy Gillbert to tow it back home to Las Vegas where he owns SRS custom streetrods and exhaust. He was allways telling me to buy a chevy. Anyway I had to ride the Greyhound bus back to Fort Ord in California. that was one fun trip Beautiful weather though.

300,000 people in the last 5 years? Damn, I wonder what it's like out there now. Don't come east of the US, where I live it's crouded big time now. Everyone from New York and all those northern states (mostly NY) come here for business, etc and it's way over crouded. They talk about all the time how it's too over crouded now and trying to pass laws or something about no more neighborhoods being built. 5 years ago where we live it was alright and not crouded at all but now the main street about 2 miles from us is so backed up in the mourning, I can't even get out of our neighborhood or nothing and even all the back roads are backed up too. Last summer was like that but would take back roads to miss it all and not many people took them and now all backroads are filled and homes being built all over. Crazy here too, I would rather live there in Mohave Valley, at least there's not trees there. :)
What We Have Trees And I Said The Next 5 Years But I Don't Think That Is Right Because When These People Spend There First Summer Here And It Get To 132 Degrees They Will Be Out Of Here I've Seen It To Many Times Me I Like It Hot The Hottest I've Seen It Was 136 Degrees That Why The Call It The Arm Pit Of Hell He He He :p :D
John ; I hear that all the time from people down here, about how hot it is out there and I just laugh. And they would tell me that I don't under stand how hot it really is. Again I would laugh, I used to run from Henerson to my gym Chet Yortons in Las Vegas , 25 miles away and back every day in 120 + degress. And I loved it and would still do it if my knees did'nt give out on me. I love the weather out there. Down here in Florida every breath of air you take you get a hot glass of water with it. You need gills to breath down here. After dark you have to tie a rope to your kids or the mosquitos will fly away with them. That's not to mention if some one has aids and the mosquitos bite them and then decide that you look more juciy and fly over and bite you. Now they say you can't catch it like that but I say take the S.O.B. that said that and
put Him in a room with 10,000 Mosquitos and a person with full blown aids. Lets see how long it takes him to run from that room!!! I'll bet 10 people could'nt drag him in it. HE! HE!
Just some thing to think about when moving to florida.
I wish I would have know all this stuff before I moved here.

I would rather be in 140 degree DRY weather than all this humid crap with misqitos (sp) like Vara4 said. Weather here sucks, I miss California and Arizona weather. I used to bike (not dirt bikes just BMX) miles and miles every day non stop from the time I got home from school until 2 hours after it got dark and would sweat but not bad like out here and only thing that hurt was my head where it felt like it was going to explode cause it was hot and your temples would feel like your pulse (I am sure you know how that feels when its hot as hell out and you are running or something). Even though I lived there and am real used to the heat I am used to the cold now, I love cold weather, it doesn't bother me anymore at all, I always feel hot anyways and always wan't A/C or windows down in the car when the rest of my family is freezing. heh.
yeah I couldn't live there I hate humid weather but last summer the humidity sure was high here with 125 temp it took alot to keep cool well not realy thank god for the colordo river I just about forgot I had a house I lived there so much I'm ready for next year though I just pick up another 17 ft boat it got a color tv /w satelite so I will be living on the river and still watch nascar race's watchin bikini's and drinkin root beer since I dont drink alcohol anymore but I do got to do somthing about my root beer belly :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: as far as a/c everything I own has that two 90 type A/C
Whata life John, whata life.
yeah I know It can be tough at times but I keep trying
How hard do ya try and get that root beer belly down? hehe
Hey John; Here's a storie for you about your colorado river.
Me and my big brother were in the boy scouts and went for a two week canoe trip down the colorado with our troop. My Brother and me were split up to go with a more experienced person, since neither one of us had canoed before. Since I was really to young to be in the boy scouts, they put me with this guy that had been in the scouts for 40 years and was about 58 years old. He was really a great guy, and taught me alot about canoing. Well they put my brother Kevin with a guy about his age that had a little experience. About a week in to the trip, my brother and his partner got in to trouble in some white water. Thier canoe sank with all my brothers and my camping gear in it. My brother and his partner were able to grab on to some bushes in the middle of the river, which was moving real fast there. So some of our troop leaders carried a canoe a little ways back up river. This way they could come back down and pluck my brother and his partner off the bushes. Well the plan went pretty good till they grabbed the first one of them and dropped them in the canoe. Too much weight I guess under went the second canoe. Now there was two boys and three scout leaders stuck on the bushes.
Now if we could flash to my parents home in Las Vegas who are watching a game on TV when a special report news break came on. The storie was about some Rangers trying to rescue some boy scouts off of the bushes in the middle of the colorado river.
Then they zoomed in on my brother with a camera. Im sure you can imagine my parent faces. I wish some one would have snapped thier picture. Any way they got every one safe, we lost two canoes and all my brothers and my camping stuff. But it was all worth it,we had a blast and I would do it all over again. Our parents take was a little differant. HE! HE! HE!

Yeah I'll Bet Good Story .There Is A Lot Of People Even Today Under Estimate That River She Can Be WickedQuote:
