Looks like an absolute blast.

Only Jeepin' we have done was in Colorado, we did the Alpine Loop. Absolutely gorgeous. Left out of Lake City. Dad LOVED that place. Need to go back soon.
They’re paying me big bucks to work part time and travel occasionally. We have a couple more big remodel projects on the house then I’m done.

Alpine Loop is gorgeous.

Thanks. It is a beautiful machine. Sounded good when he played it. I don’t have an amp yet, plus I need about 9,990 hours before some level of proficiency. It will be a journey.
Will you post monthly progress reports?

Both kids say it’s the only thing they want when we pass away - along with the Vette, beach house and our money.

That is so cool. I have a few really cool things from both sides of my grandparents. I treasure all of them.

Keep us informed on whether you are able to repair the clock. If you cannot repair it there are people that will be able to.

Sorry again Candie. Very sad.

Although that is a nice collection. I think it pales in comparison to this one.

Da Fuq is da Shine?

You are way over chicked by the way.

I went to Cars And Coffee this morning before going to the office to spend eight hours of preparing financial reports. There were too many awesome cars to even start listing. But my favorite, besides an L88 of a '69 ZL1 Vette, this is the Holy Grail of Vettes in my opinion. A fuel injected, four speed, numbers matching, NCRS certified 1963 coupe.

Golf tomorrow and Monday!
