HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!
« on: Jul 04, 2007, 09:11:34 AM »
So what is everyone up to today?
Mark's working on the Mammoth, of course, and we'll probably through some steaks on the barbie later.
Enjoy the 4th and be safe!   

 And remember - freedom is not free   :usa:

Well I scheduled myself to work knowing that the time I scheduled myself I wouldn't be needed. :gap:

I did go in and put up some 4th of July stuff and then made sure everyone showed and then went shopping for a new  :disturbed: ha, ha, bet you thought I was gonna blow it didn't you? Anyways tonight across the street from my resturaunt is Mesa Community College and they are having a big display at 10:00 so I'm going in to watch it. Afterwards I'll probably get swamped so I'll hang out to keep things rolling.

And of course... Mark worked on the Mammoth.

Hey, could someone ask me how my truck did while towing the trailer?

Why?  :dunno:  we already know that it went great, and you're just looking for another reason to brag on your truck.






Right?  :disturbed:


We were out on the lake all day (berryessa)  wakeboarding, and then went to the fireworks in Winters, CA, and set off some of our own



And because it isn't said nearly enough,  THANK YOU to all of our troops, past, present, and future, for giving us the opportunity to celebrate this holiday.  Without you, we wouldn't be able to enjoy it!! :usa:  GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
:usa: Its better to die on your feet than live on your knees :usa:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

hahahahaha yea, ya got me

I actually wanted to say "What Trailer". I head this while traveling to Rubithon last month when I radioed up to "craftsman" who was towing Marlin's 1980 Crawler Truck behind his brand new Chevy 1-Ton Dually Turbo Diesel up HWY50. I said "Hey Craftsman, how does that trailer feel" and he responded "What trailer?" hahahahahaha I was laughing so hard :yupyup:

My truck certainly is not a tow rig, but when it is towing just a Jet Ski, it can be considered one :rofl:
