    Well, since I do my best thinking while sitting at the table with a cup of coffee.
    Your truck should have some type of theme to it. The last couple of days there has been a lot of talk about Emt's. Thinking that Tim could make you a decal of a Emt holding a chainsaw.

    FYI
    I'm not at the table having coffee.

    Heh, appreciated, and you have a great Thanksgiving as well! Just another 10 hours or so today and then some Drinksgiving tonight! (Working for a grocery store chain this time of year can be exhausting, but we have fun too.)

    I'm gonna be following this Arkansas news as it comes together. Really hope to join in on those shenanigans.

    Took me a minutes... Ents. You mean Ents... Nope no Ents for me. I am thinking the TRD three stripe color for the back. Red wrap around with orange and yellow...

    I also thought an 8' strap would be too short, so I bought 2 and soft shackled them together when I needed a longer strap. Having more than 1 strap (and the accompanied snatch rings) will also give you the options to rig up a proper pulling angle.

    It’s a lot easier to make a long strap shorter than a short strap longer

    In case anyone is interested, I made a quick video of the fish market that's right at the fishing harbor in Taichung. There's some interesting fish in there. If you have the bandwidth, the 4k version is best. Cheers!

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    Nice day today. No breathtaking pictures but I think they still convey how nice of a place it was. There are a couple of you that might recognize where these pictures were taken :D

    Nice photos, that's one of my favorite places to hike in the entire state. When you stopped at Tyler Fork Cascades do you say to yourself "hey, those are my cascades?"

    It's been farrr too long since I've been in this part of the state. The U.P. has gotten all my attention for a while now. I will definitely be back seeing as there is soo much to explore. As for your question, allegedly when I saw the sign I said, "Hey, that's me!"

    Just amazing! I could hardly even guess at half of the difference species of fish. I can't imagine having access to such a variety of fresh seafood.

    I wonder what kind of money electricians make over there. :D

    I got my SS3 Pros today which I ordered two days ago shipping was insanely quick. I also changed out the interior light bulbs so now I can actually see the inside. These fogs are insanely bright to I can’t believe I’m saying this but I can’t wait for some heavy snow to really use them
