    Good morning 50's, Tstorms and raining here, sporting clays canceled once again. Been a rough summer to try and shoot. Bean fields and corn are liking it though.

    An old saying is once you turn 50 getting lucky means making it through the night sleeping and not having to get up to pee. It is my mind that won't shut down that is the issue with me most nights though. Unless I do truly get "lucky" then I usually pass out afterwards with no thoughts at all LOL. Hmmm it is Saturday now...

    Traditional pain pills kind of wore off on my old boy too. Couple of months ago the vet put him on Gabapentin. Seems to work pretty well and is an off label use for it. My youngest son that is fighting cancer and has side effects from chemo is on Gabapentin, it has some strange side effects but can be very effective as a nerve block. Worth asking the vet about it, highly recommend it.

    We made it through the night. Baby is up, walking around, and has ate some. She slept most of the night. Me? Not so much. Vet called. They found another med that should boost her cortisol level. (Cause of Addison's disease) We'll be headed to the vets office around 2:30 when the meds are delivered. :fingerscrossed:

    Good afternoon. Hope all is well. Made it how in one piece. Set this up today. Waiting for fall and winter in Florida. Wanted something that would set up quick and easy by myself to use a living area. I'll be sleeping the shell and using the truck transport me/bikes to different trails. Took less than 5 minutes with the "instant tent" although not fully set up. Should be good.

    That's black plastidip base with a coat of copper metallic. Not really sure about it. Probably go back to black until I need tire and then I'm planning some SCS Ray10's matte bronze. They look pretty good in that pic but are shinny in other light. A little bright for me.

    Everything from a 56 olds, gull wing, z8, p4, the 2000 gt's. Ferrari Spider, The race cars.
    Just to be perfectly clear. So there is no misunderstanding.
    I have said this many times.
    I do not own ANY OF THESE VEHICLES. I maintain them, rebuild them. DRIVE THEM.
    Any time I want. No questions. I can bring them home.
    I am entrusted to them. Like I said I have a responsibility to preserve these cars and to protect my buddy in the race cars. I take this very serious. I'm very fussy with my own stuff and I ramp it up on this collection.. How may people can say they do what I do. To have the ability to handle this stuff which one vehicle can cost more than I could ever make in my lifetime. I am blessed..
