    As you can tell with us it is always family first. Thank you for the update and glad to know your wife is making progress. Battling cancer is not easy and takes a lot out of a person. The attitude of the patient and everyone around them is the best weapon to battle cancer. A positive attitude is a must.


    On another note I have both projectors mounted in the reflectors and aimed. :thumbsup:

    Next week is adding the shrouds and CCFL rings along with JB Weld the projectors. I also have the BHLM to do and seal the headlights back up. Made a lot of progress this week.

    all the best for her. they have come a long way on how to treat cancer, but still have a long way to go. too bad there isn't a vaccine to prevent it. maby down the road.

    So good to see you here, Rob and to hear that JoAnne is progressing well. Emotional ups and downs are to be expected - she's going through a lot both physically and mentally. You both are in our thoughts and prayers!

    Cancer sucks!!! I just spent the afternoon saying goodbye to an old friend who is losing his battle with it - just a bit more than a month after Lynn's brother died. Rick is at peace with what's happening - so hard to say goodbye, though.

    Hello...I recall seeing your username on here, but don't recall if we've communicated. Any way, point of this is to add my thoughts and prayers for your strength and comfort as you battle the Devil Cancer.

    God Bless you both!

    Sincerely, Rob Anderson

    Prayers for Rick, Mark, saying good-bye is always tough...

    Morning Rob, Jim & all...How is Chet doing Jim?? Last we heard is he is doing much better...

    The community I live in, we (one of those over 55 er's) always have someone with one type of malady or another...my neighbor across the street is battling cancer and is holding his own but what I find most admirable is even with the ups and down with the chemo and radiation, he is always smiling and never complains... he has a very bright outlook...and still does what he can around the house...Ken

    Hi Rob, I am relatively new to this group too. Glad to hear your wife is doing well. Fun to have new friends all around the country. This Saturday has started out sunny, although a bit cool (30's). This coming week is supposed to be in the 50's and mostly sunny.

    Morning everyone!! Thanks for the good thoughts for Rick.

    Cold day here today - windy and mid 30s. Tomorrow starts a warm up, though, and we're supposed to be in the 60s all week.

    Tomorrow I'll be getting the DR Field Mower out of the barn and starting some spring brush cleaning. Woo Hoo!!

    Morning everyone. Looks like a nice day to get some outside work done - supposed to be about 60 but breezy. No complaints here, though!

    Anybody add a tow hitch to their trucks? I want to put one on to carry my lawn tractors and ATV to take them in for maintenance. Not looking to haul over 1000 lbs. I've been looking at the Hidden Hitch set up.

    Just wondering if I need to add another tranny cooler, etc. I'm thinking that I don't given the limited tow weight I plan to pull.

    Thoughts?

    There are a lot of sites for after market Tacoma add on's. You might find an easy bolt on type hitch. I wouldn't think you need a tranny cooler either. When you think about it pulling a trailer under 1000 lbs shouldn't be much different than loading the bed up with weight.
