    I personally wouldn't want the word "trash" referenced in my team name. But that's just me.

    I could see why you would, since it would conflict with your actual name. Trashman Jernigan.

    I know it's all in my head, but I swear my truck grew 1/2 an inch while I was gone. I guess a week of crossovers and cars can do that to your judgement. Or the rain we finally got last week made it grow a little, :rofl:

    That's why I like handling baby carrots. After a day or two of that, everything else feels gigantic. :cookiemonster:

    Glad to hear. I was a bit nervous b/c I didn't really know much about those springs. I never touched them after grabbing them from @dcoursler

    Yea just needed a little clean up and new bushings! Just took a wire brush to them and painted them. But probably for you if you plan on adding a tent and rack on top of your camper shell plus a rear bumper those springs Arnt gonna hold alll that weight! I’d probably go deaver or dobinsons.

    To all,
    Know bow season opens tomorrow but anyone interested in a late season dove hunt at Swan Creek WMA? Three of us went there this weekend and dove were all over but we didn't have enough people (only three shooters) to keep them moving. We would shot at a bunch and they would fly to another part of the field. Field is planted in corn and knocked down as the picture shows. Field is outline in yellow. Need the following to hunt there:
    1. Alabama License
    2. WMA permit
    3. Swan Creek permit (free)
    If interested let me know and pick a Saturday or Sunday. Trying to get another 4-6 people.

    Hey fellas, I have one more question for those of you near Harvest/Huntsville. Any recommendations for a good vet? How about dog walking service? And lastly, doggy daycare?

    I'm bringing 10 lbs of anger-filled fur and teeth with me, so any personal recommendations would be awesome. Thanks!

    I am in south Huntsville and go to Pennington animal hospital. Can’t say enough good things about them but they can be a little pricey, but worth it to me.

    for the other stuff check out Rover.

    All depends on your setup, but I'd venture a guess its whatever truck they came off of. Mine are from a GMC 1500, so I'm guessing around 1200 lbs or so. But you also have to take in to account your shackle angle since that determines the amount of leverage applied to your springs. That's why its imperative to set that angle when there is weight on the rear axle.

    From Alabama WX

    WET: Beneficial rain will fall on much of Alabama today thanks to an upper wave interacting with a stalled surface front over South Alabama. Heaviest rain will fall over the southern two-thirds of the state, with 1-3 inches possible south of I-20. Amounts over the northern third of Alabama will be under 1/2 inch. A few strong to severe storms are possible this afternoon over South Alabama; SPC maintains a “marginal risk” (level 1/5) of severe storms south of a line from Demopolis to Montgomery to Eufaula.

    [​IMG]

    Rain will end from west to east late tonight, and any lingering showers will end early tomorrow morning. The sky becomes sunny by tomorrow afternoon with a high around 70 degrees.

    THURSDAY/FRIDAY: These two days will feature delightful autumn weather with sunny pleasant days and clear chilly nights. Morning lows will be in the 40-45 degree range, with 30s for colder spots. The high Thursday will be in the upper 60s, followed by low 70s Friday.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Moist air returns to Alabama over the weekend. For now, it looks like the best chance of rain during the day Saturday will come over the southern half of the state, but rain becomes likely statewide Saturday night into at least part of the day Sunday. Then, another round of rain and storms is possible Monday of next week as an active pattern continues; more beneficial rain is likely for Alabama at times. Afternoon highs will be in the 75-80 degree range for the northern and central part of the state; low 80s are likely for South Alabama.

    It is important to note that there are considerable differences in the global models concerning the timing of the rain this weekend. Understand the forecast can, and probably will change as we get closer to the weekend.

    We should also point out that the air will become unstable by Sunday and Monday, and we could see some threat of strong, maybe even severe thunderstorms along the way. Again, too early for specifics.

    [​IMG]



    @pat's taco you have a risk this afternoon of severe weather

    This afternoon around 4pm it's possible, maybe sooner. Just watch the weather
