Spent 4 days loading a budget truck, 5 days driving it from CA. to Nashville area, and about 4 hours to unload it. Got started with the new job (transfer), and I'm down to a half a garage full of misc. boxes. So far everything is going pretty smooth, I just need to find a new toy.
I'm not as good as I once was, but, I'm as good once as I ever was.

I don't remember from your other thread...where in the Nashville area are you?

Sweet, now you just need to hit up one of those lakes and check out the boat  :thumbs:

We are in Mt. Juliet. Lakes are waiting, got the shifter fixed (easy fix) on the boat, just waiting for a day when everybody is off.

Just minutes away from Old Hickory Lake or J. Percy Priest Lake!

yep and connected the shifter cable to the shaft. Then I forgot I had pulled the drain plug out of it before we put it in the lake. spent a little time on the ramp draining. still seemed to picking up water from somewhere not sure if it was just from not having the plug in it?
