thats sucks Tony, ask for the good pain killers, they go great will beer.

 

Won't get any slack from me b/c right now my sinus infection has my vocal chords so swollen that I can't speak at all. Hopefully I'll be able to speak by the time everyone gets there Friday night (even then I'll be limited). If I feel better in the morning-I'll be headed up tomorrow, if not, then I'll wait and see what I feel like on Friday morning.

 

I hope this isn't a bad omen... I've had a horrible day today, nothing seems to be going right, my truck doesn't have front suspension at the moment and everybody seems to be dropping like flies...

Oh well, hopefully I'll be back in action tonight. back to work...

3rd gen rear SR5 (black) mudflaps-$15 pair

3rd gen stock front shocks-$10 pair

Well, I just re-checked the directions to "tellico" instead of just murphy and ended up getting directions through asheville, which is fine with me because I know that way like its the back of my hand (well, to charokee). So, it looks like we might be able to join up in the a-town croud.

Call me anytime tonight if you want will and we can talk. I'll be up working on the runner.

Glad to see we will (knock on wood) getting some nice weather!!

I'll take the $5 tow hook. Mines a bit bent from the swimming excursion...

 

i think ive got a bad omen lingering over my head this week...im about afraid to drive up this weekend...ill probably catch the flu or get a snake bite

 

Tell me about it...

My best friend isn't talking to me, I haven't driven my truck in a week and a half, these f'n downey coilovers... I ended up having to cut the shock in half and grind out the screws from the back side and then press out with a 20ton press, I have an azz load of homework to do, and the girl I have liked for a long time just told me her ex just decided to show up today.. I feel greeeeat!

also, anyone heard from j lately? He hasn't posted in a while... I'll call him tomorrow if we don't hear anything.

One more thing before I get back to work,
I just checked crawford's map and the cabins are on the way to the trails, so it looks like it would be a better meeting place since there is a huge parking lot by our cabin. We can play it by ear, but its kind-a dumb for us to drive down the mtn to drive back up... we can discuss, but here is the map

 

Well, I won't be going. The company ain't going to help with my living situation like they should until the house sells. So money is too tight to be blowing it on wheeling trips.

 

aww dude....
sorry to hear that. damn... looks like your going to have to still owe me a foot masage for those decals...

 

uh, no thanks, we'll stick to the lunch as discussed. just give me some time to sell myself for a couple weekends and I'll be able to afford it. No I almost could kick myself for spending 50 clams on two t-shirts!

 

Need youre phone #
Pm me and I'll call ya!

 

i could spot u fitty bucks

maybe we can all gather around the campfire and bitch about our problems

 

Might be able to sell the t-shirts to Marc Z-zman2day. At least he was asking about getting one anyway.

 

Sorry to hear you're not coming-I really wanted to try out those 4.88's! j/k-maybe next time.

 

575 and 92 is woodstock, that is 3 exits south of where i live, that is exit 7 and i live at 14.

also, how do you go, just 515 up to 60? and then into murphy, and then follow the map up to the cabins i guess? (map from crawfords web-site, how long does it usually take you to get there?)

 

well, the next run I should make. it's the frickin home market in Houston, too many new houses going up and builders offering rediculous kick backs to both agents and buyers.

Besides that, I went wheeling tonight with Allen Stegall and on my way up a hill/wash I heard some strange ticking noise coming from underneath when I'd give it gas and put alot of load on the driveline. kind of makes me think I should to pull the 3rd and give the R&P a looksee.

 

preesheeate it but that'd give me yet another person to owe. I don't need 50 bucks. gas will be a little around 100 for the enitire round trip (I get 15mpg), then food. just not feasible at this juncture. I got some more junk to sell on eBay, kind of wish I hadn't gotten the winch, but my wife is getting better so that's the main thing, that was a long drive!

 

so how many people are offically going now?

and, can i park my rig on someones spot so i can camp in my truck.
