    I'd be happy to just go camp at Bearpaw sometime and hit the other forest roads in the area. Could always make a run to Elton and hit those trails. :notsure:

    We're heading out to our usual territory on Saturday. Probably check out that TWAT trail you guys were on by Bald Peak Ave. east of Fairchild.
    Anyone can join in if they're bored and have a day to kill.

    We have a new supervisor at work. I haven't met him yet. A young guy. I almost feel like asking him if his mom knows where he is? Or. Does he have to be home by the time the street lights come on?

    I've had a couple roll tenders, in the past, that were a good 10+ years older than me.
    Told the owner to stop hiring 'older than me' guys because those older guys don't like taking directions from younger guys.

    I worked at the same place as my dad. One day, the boss was bringing a new manager around, introducing him. When he got to my dad, my dad said: I hope he isn't too smart to learn something.

    Anybody remember this little trick when having starting issues. Just look at all that room in the engine bay.

    Finally got the truck scanned today. Something under the seat has been dislodged-my packing style clearly. Good reason to pull the seats and vacuum... I have a DeWalt, but also the mother of all shop vacs so my two bits on the vacuum discussion.

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    Just passed someone sitting at a red light about 2 and a half car lengths into the intersection eating with chopsticks. Good little chuckle leaving work. For a split second they made me think I was the bad driver and turned too close to their side of the intersection.
