I loaded the 71 in the trailer today and proceeded to back the trailer right into a tree. 
Normally I would not drive right into a tree but it was on my blind side and I had a guy watching for me , directing me right into the tree. Good thing I had help or I might have missed the tree.

A couple hours of buffing and shes almost as good as new, which it is only a few months old anyway. This is its maiden voyage and when I get it back home, it is for sale. 24 ft 2008 Wells Cargo Enclosed, I want another gooseneck, I just don't like the bumper pull.
Soooo..... anyway....
I have to pack my suitcase and load the truck and its go time !
See you all Wednesday, I hope !

Hey, Wednesday ain't waitin on me! I don't even want to open my shop tomorrow but enough customers are ticked at me already. Not zackley the best time of year to close your lawnmower repair shop. They'll get over it. I'm ready to go NOW!
I'm ready to go NOW!
Don't forget your sweatshirts and jackets. Looks like it's gonna be a little cool in the mountains. See y'all soon.
I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas...

Over the weekend got "The Toy" as ready as it is going to get. Tonight worked on "The Silver Buckboard" so its ready to go. After work on Tuesday will pack and load up and hopefully be in the rack early.
Plan to be on the road by 5 o'clock Wednesday morning, pick up Wally (sundew) at 6 o'clock and meet Pete and Jamey on the road somewhere south of the Cities.
Are we there yet...?!?!?!? Drive careful everyone...!!!

"The Toys"...!!! Save the Wave! 
Got the erl changed. Hopefully, Fireboss will have either brakes or the new mod to remove the floor panel and use his Fred Flinstone feet to stop with.
I called tail end Charlie so I don't have to worry none about gettin' that ugly red paint on my fine black mosheen!!!
We're hopin' for Spielman to be in some time tomorrow and we're off ( no smart@$$ comments required) @ 10am on Wed!
Last one there buys the beer!
