    Quit spending your money on a 130 mph grocery getter and you can afford a Jeep with ac...

    Good idea.

    Good thanks Susan. Youngest cancer is in remission but issues with spine and chest bones. He goes in on the 26th to see about getting nerve blocks. Oldest is on final interview for a job in Boston he will be going out for a face to face soon. But still working for Apple in the meantime.

    I have that and several of the smaller stackable boxes on top. I use it to store my tools in the garage and the seals do seem to be weather tight. At least things have stopped rusting once I put them in it.

    Has he looked into Epic. I hear the first 7 years are a b&@$ but really take care of their people after that. Phenomenal growth!

    I'll say. :drool:

    Beats the red beans and rice with chorizo mooseburger mixed in ... although that made a tasty late lunch-dinner... made even nicer by sharing with Mitch when he stopped by after work to clean guns.

    He wants out of the Midwest and move to a big City on the coast. Verona, Wi. not so much but I'd like that better. I deal with their staff\programmers often and most are very happy.

    After 3 years of roll outs our last go live is right in the middle of grouse season. Again. It will be another Epic hunting season this year.... But then we are finally done with it. There is some talk of us selling our in house built imaging system to them it is the only one of its kind in the world.

    And socialization. When I got my first Toller the contract said that I would enroll him in puppy training classes as soon as possible. I was a bit miffed, I had trained several hunting dogs and didn't need no damn puppy classes. Ended up taking puppy 1 and 2, obedience 1 and 2, and agility. Same on the second one except no one had to tell me to sign up. Seem to always pick up something new each time that helps. And the socialization can't be done without other dogs it helps when they are the same age. Your wife called correctly on that one IMO even if she didn't know exactly why :thumbsup: Like everything else there are good trainers and bad trainers I hope you end up with a good class.

    When I was a kid Dad had a 1st gen International Scout and he had 2 rocket boxes in the back for chains, rigging and whatever. Now I have one and my brother has the other. Water tight, multiple clasps.I started putting mine together for an off road rigging box.
