Do me a favour.....You want to quote me, no problem.
But dont be using me as a example for this bullshit comment about making us turn on one another.....Their not my friends, I could die in my sleep tonight they wouldn't give a rats ***
And you want to know why Dan the man?
Kitty and I needed another anyway when @Princess Valiant sent me a message about Vixen in north Georgia. Call it hobby if you will, but Vixen serves as an extra daily driver for us. She gets driven rain, shine, summer and winter. We cannot afford a new car payment and new car insurance and registration, so Vixen fits the bill. She just so happens to be something that we both enjoy. I sure hope no one is insinuating people on fixed incomes can't have hobbies.
Vixen is an inspiration for me. I always drove the 300 dollar commuters. Even though some guzzled gas and did 300 foot burnouts.
Thanks. She's one of those projects that so far, everything has turned out golden on. I'm hoping the recent body work will be the same.
Three years of lockdowns kept us from our western dream trip here in Canada when we retired. Finally, things open up but fuel is expensive.........We better not go until prices come down..........Ooops, I've got Cancer.......I guess we will never see the mountains, but I'm sure that the kids will enjoy the extra $1500 bucks we saved on fuel! (Fictional story, but you get the drift).......We went, and had an awesome time
The last vacation we went on was in 1995 when we were finally able to take a quick honeymoon after being married in 1994. That's it.
Good looking couple. Should have hung a left around Cardston.Three years of lockdowns kept us from our western dream trip here in Canada when we retired.

Thanks! BTW....The pic was actually in Hyder Alaska, just across the border from Stewart British Columbia. On a funny note, we got a big hassle from the Canadian border officials coming back into Canada. They were pissed that we didn't have the ArriveCan (sp) app. on our ancient phone. I got nervous when the rubber glove came out!

But if it make you feel better I've never Ben on vacation ever so we're even hahah actually I've Ben on 1 flight and it was from fairbanks to anchorage but I also started takeing care of my parents at 16 and at that time I had 1 chance to get a muscle car so I worked 3 jobs and painted a quadplex and gave 7.5 grand to my dad's buddy and bought a 71 demon with a worn out 225 and a rough a833 so I rebuilt the tranny myself, with cheap junk, and I bought the passion performance overdrive 18 spline kit !! and I'm almost done with an aluminum headed 451 weiand dual quad with two super rare 750 cfm 4150 6709 holleys.

Hey that why God made young guys! To help the old guys, then we learn stuff lift stuff. but most importantly to hold a flashlight right.. haha

That’s super cool. Good pull into the conversation.

Totally Agree. We were energy independent a few years ago.
You mean like in 2019 and 2020?
It is. When domestic oil production is squashed and pipelines shut down, oil prices will increase. Simple economics.

With age comes knowledge and experience. I was taught to respect my elders, but I believe in respecting everybody. As my dad would say, we learn by keeping our eyes and ears open and our mouths shut.
