    Well yesterday was interesting.

    Got off work and was headed home when my front bumper paid for itself. I was busting a u turn (legal) and when a did this black lady in a jeep liberty didn't see me and turned right out of a parking lot. I didn't even see Her until we hit... Her fault she claimed responsibility. Got out and her driver door was completely caved in. I think she swapped a little bit of paint onto my ARB. Didn't even phase that bumper at all. She didn't wanna report it to insurance and neither did I, so we just left Lol.


    Then on the lake last night it was a little windy but if we stayed on the south end of the lake it wasnt too wavy. Then my buddy thought it would be a great idea to run ton the north end, I questioned the validity of this idea, but he said it would be alright. Running with the wind wasnt bad. Coming back sucked dick. We got SOAKED. cold and wet he tells me we are almost of out gas. I say then we need to head back to the boat ramp. He wants to kill on more fish. I question the validity of this idea multiple times. He insists we will be alright. On our way back to the boat ramp about half a mile away we run outta gas. There is another boat about 150 yards away so we start blowing the whistle, yelling, and flashing a strobe light. The mother fucker lifts up his anchor and goes back top the marina. At this point we have drifted about another half a mile away. Then we tried to use the troller motor to get back. A wave went over the front and fried the converter from the generator and killed the power to the troller. Soo eventually we drift to land, in the middle of no where. We are completely soaked and freezing cold, and have a multiple mile hike ahead of us to the nearest road. We are lucky it was 40-50° outside last night. Buddy of ours got some gas cans and met us at the nearest road. Walked back and got the boat fired up and made or back to the ramp. Last night ended around 4am...

    And my damage from yesterday

    The big scrape is actually just mud. You might be able to make out a little paint transfer

    Spark plugs are not hard once you get it figured out. When I did mine it took about an hour and a half because I had to get my own beers.

    Looks good; I really like the way Hefe smells when it boils. I need to drink some more beer so I can boil again. :D
