    Thanks for the welcome Carl. Sure I will fill up that cooler but won't be able to drink any with you. :D

    Hi Jim,
    I'm about 20 miles north of Detroit in the suburbs.

    I still feel like I'm in my 40's mentally but physically it's a bit of a different story though I really feel a heck of a lot better since they fixed me up.

    Hope you have a great birthday next week.

    Welcome to the thread. By 65 you will feel like 60 or it might be the herniated disc I had at 65.

    There is also coffee and bottled water. A lot of guys were not happy when the coffee pot appeared. Congrats on the Tacoma.

    :cool: I work a lot with the troop our church sponsors. I have even participated in a few Eagle Scout review boards.

    Dave, we need to make sure we can have a space for a few bottles of wine in the new cooler. ;)

    Welcome to all the new folks! I'll stick with bourbon...no cooler needed.

    I hope everyone enjoyed their 4th celebrations! Had a few beautiful days here in northeast PA - supposed to be some rain today but then nice again for most of the coming week. I'm on vacation for the week so it's time to get some projects done around the farm and enjoy the pool!!

    I slapped a little stake bed together for my UTV. Think I'll eventually make version 2 and add a 3rd slat. First, though, it's time to build another shooting bench.

    Looks like I should have bought a double cab. But then I can probably fit 10 in the bed. :thumbsup:

    Thank you, I'll have a coffee or 10. I'm a coffeeholic, my only addiction as of now.

    For me , it depends on the beer and octane rating. :anonymous:
    One of these is enough...

    We get apple cider from the Benton Cider Mill in Benton, PA. The only ingredients in the container is apples. No preservatives, pasteurization or homo-gination:drool: and pure delight to drink. Only problem is shelf life is real short.

    Seeing that rotary dial phone brings back memories. One phone in the house and it was on a table in the hall by the bathroom (also used as a phone booth for privacy, but Mom had bionic ears and heard all). Time sure have changed.
