Pretty good - didn't do much myself. Worked outside most of Sunday and enjoyed the weather. Got started on my spring cleaning around my property. Wish I had a few more days off though. Weekends always go by way too fast.....

Ya that happens sometimes.



So I went on a call with the sw fire dept. this morning at 4am for a few hours before had to leave to come to work. Something about some pipe bombs in a stolen vehicle. Saw the bomb squad and remote-controlled robot. It was pretty cool. Here are some of the details:

That is crazy, I wonder if it was actually a bomb or just something to look like one so people wouldn't mess with it.

Mine was crazy too! We went non-stop from Friday night until Sunday night, put on a total of 600 miles on the old Ford traveling all over NW Iowa and SE SD visiting friends and family. Looking forward to this weekend at home, so far it looks like it is going to be beautiful weather, lots of work to do but hope to find some time to ride motorcycle.

Ty-those tires look good, I bought my first set of AT's from Nebraska Tire back in the lates 90's!

Jump'n-Look forward to seeing the new interior work, should be pretty sweet!

Later

This month is chaos for me next month would probably work. I think June would be a good month to do it but we wait to long and we might just run out mild weather.

Noticed Ty went on a call with the fire dpt.. I really appreciate those guys. They have to face dangerous situations an have to be ready in a moments notice. Had to use there services a time or two and was really impressed on there quick response an the way they handled there job. If you no these guys tell them thanks. You never no when you might need there services. My hats are off to those guys. Another nice weekend coming up. Hope everybody is doing well.

Thanks for the welcome. I have a bright red 2005 xlt supercrew. Not to many mods on her except for a few cosmetics from the last owner. I did just put a HBS 3.5" leveling kit on it and a set of 295/70R17 Nitto Terra Grapplers.
not so great picture but you get the point.
