    First evening deer hunting this year

    Spent my first evening of the year in my stand last night. Within an hour had 5 bucks within range. Had to wait for this guy to come in the open. Arrow hit it's Mark at 32 yds and he expired 30 yds later. Not a giant around here, but he's still a dandy.

    Thank you so much for that! Can't wait for Lori to get home and let her read it. Tears will flow again I'm sure, but not tears of sadness. Thanks my friend

    Lost my best friend yesterday

    I'm not a real emotional person in general. But I cried like a baby when he closed his eyes. Reading all the thoughts and prayers,and similar experiences from a bunch of people I've never met in person, has kinda renewed my faith in mankind, and is really weighing heavy on my heart. Seems we all...

    I'll look for some old pics I have when he was younger. Up until he was about 9, he'd come running everytiEV I fired up the dart and stand by the passenger door. He looked so proud riding around in that bucket seats with his head out the window

    Lost my best friend yesterday

    Had to take our 13yo golden retriever in yesterday and and let him go to heaven. Found out 2 weeks ago his chest and abdomen we're full of masses. He acted normal, was always happy, and ate like a horse. The vet said he was showing no signs of stress or suffering but it was only a matter of...

    Building a 0 mileage warranty 340 shortblock

    Think I'm gonna get a new set of springs regardless. Also might try to find a NEW set of iron adjustable rockers and good pushrods. The old 273 rockers have served their purpose well, but I'll sleep better knowing there's new ones under those stock valve covers.lol

    I'm still trying to find the old paperwork from these heads to see what all was done. I know Dad spent a TON of money on them at the time when he was racing, but never installed them

    Building a 0 mileage warranty 340 shortblock

    Got the shortblock disassembled and looks immaculate. Took block and heads to machine shop that my dad used 40 yrs ago. And yes, still the original owner. Cane hear well, but he knows his ****.
