Summertime crickets....chirp chirp....
Noticed its a little slower around here. Summer activities seem to slow us down. Anyway, maybe we should plan another meet again? Doubt I'll be able to get my seats in and console before school starts and kids are out of the house for 8 hours a day again.

Yep looks like our next get together will be the stripper party for jump_n's truck!

How was everyone's weekend? I had my birthday on friday, Cory and I took out his new boat I got a good ride in until I broke my binding. Then I went with my girlfriend back to her home town of Cherokee, IA for a horse show and watched her do that. Got back late last night and am in dire need of sleep but that won't happen tonight either cause its bowling leagues.

Next weekend I am going down to kc with a trailer to move my friend back up. And two weeks after that I am going to Rochester to move his girlfriend back as well. I will be putting large amounts of miles on the truck in the coming weeks.

I had to work again on Saturday. At the end of the workday I pulled my truck in and using a saw-zall I cut out the rear 2 larger cat's. Drove home with just the front 2 pre-cats and open after that. It was LOUD!
Going down the interstate with the 2 rows of cement blockade's on each side sure did make it echo! When I got home I gutted the cats and then I got them welded back up in there so the noise carries out to the back of the cab instead of right in front of it. That quieted it back down a bit but it still sounds pretty good now! Next on the list is to look into some lightning headers if I can find some and then get true-duals with an x-pipe installed. Will probably have zig's muffler do the work since he will give me a deal through work.

I dropped my truck off this morning to have the level kit installed, wheels, tires and alignment done. Now I just need to find out how much it will cost to get my speedo realigned with my new tires. I just put 3,000 miles on my truck and I will probably get the oil changed in it too.

As far as this weekend goes, a group of us (10) did the first day of RAGBRAI. The weather couldn’t have been any better. I am glad we didn’t’ continue onto the next two days, the weather sure did turn to crap in a hurry.
