Default Where Have I Been...............................?

It now sems like the only chance that I get to step in here is when I have a break at work. My life has been busy.

I have a GF. That should be self-explanatory Last weekend, we took a trip ~230 miles south of here and stayed at a bed & breakfast. I would gladly go thru Basic Training for the military just to do that again. The Bonnie did a beautiful job of getting us there round-trip.

For those who do not know, I am deploying to the desert this Monday afternoon. It came up a lot faster than I ever thought

I blew out the rear-end in my 91 Suburban. The 10 bolt axle is not very strong, IMO. That was yesterday'* and today'* project. For those who have never shimed a carrier, set the backlash, gear pattern and pinion shimming all correct, it'* an all-day job. It sucks!

You know it is really serious when you let a girl touch your AL7s.

Beautiful scenery in those shots. Quite a contrast to you next assignment.

Stay safe and keep in touch when you can, Greg.

Thanks everyone!

For those of you who do, please pray for my relationship and my safe return.
I would like to do the postcard exchange again while I am over there. If you would like, PM me your addy. For the members, I will make sure I apply the proper postage this time. Sorry y'all never got yours from Barrow.
