Stop in for a cup of coffee

No edge left on this blade at all! LOL!

He did?...goddamn I'm tired!

I think that's why he was not going to leave till tomorrow. Would have been way past there by now...

I don't think alcohol makes a very good honing oil.

No kidding!

Plus I had a sinus infection that I was fighting since last weekend praying to get over by the time Tim got here. Just barely made it, I was home sick from work until Thursday.

Snow. Gee. Hope it wasn't too wet and sloppy. Sometimes driving in snow is better than driving in the rain. At least I think so, easier to see and as long as I was ahead of the salt trucks or someplace they didn't use 'em. (yea. that's rare now).
Well maybe we'll finally get a frost here and get some colors.
May the rest of your trip be dry.

I think I just went two clicks past 'toast' on my dial. I'm going to kill a couple of pieces of the leftover pizza and see you guys tomorrow.

Wow, thats a lot of snow.i would be concerned driving with tose tires, yet more concerned about the other drivers that forget how to drive when the first snowflake hits.
Last thursday there were collisions on almost every bridge in winnipeg.

Good to hear you guys had a fun party and M3 surprised you, that is so cool.

Don't plan to run my current Duster in the snow, but certainly drove these cars in it plenty back in the 80's. Never forget one storm we had. Lots of light fluffy snow. Roads were drifting bad. Don't recall why but I had my Dad's Duster that day. I think he went into work with someone else and I ended up picking up him and a couple co-workers. I was crashing through drifts at least up to the front of the hood on the way back. I knew they were fluff cause I had just come through the road less than an hour before...

My daughter just cracked me up. She was talking about you guys and then totally straight faced she said "I bet that Rick guy was a 'player' when he was in High School and college.

LOL!

She only saw him for a few minutes and had him pegged. Not much gets by her...

Being judged solely on my Richard Gere-esque good looks again! (not that I disagree with her tho)..

Crawling into bed now. Missed a voice mail from Tim earlier. Around 8:30 tonight he was past Memphis and still going. That's over 1000 miles from here.

He wasn't kidding when he said he was a driving maniac!

The cornering method in the photos we call "Dovetailing", regardless of whether it is full dovetail or half dovetail (bottom cut square, top cut angled).

We call it "knot" or "knot timbering" when the logs are joined together like that. Actually, the corner of any house is the knot to this day.

 

[360DartGT66]

Nope! We kept it a secret all along. He had a plane ticket booked long before anyone knew it. Nobody was told he was coming until they got here...and even then it was only a few minutes before he showed up!

Well played, Scampy!

 

[ScampMike]

g'morning - I think Keith was/is right - I missed the call on this morning and work.. I feel way worse today than I did yesterday - sure, I can call in sick, but I should have known enough to have asked for today off -

 

[ScampMike]

it's still BC-AM - before coffee morning time, hopefully some java sets me right-ish

 

[ScampMike]

Well played, Scampy!

it wasn't easy keeping the secret (there's an understatement!) - with the way these guys kept hammering at me about it and me knowing I was going, I guess several of my replies were less than convincing - but it was fun

 

[ScampMike]

You guys had a dizzy weekend.

fixed it

 

[ScampMike]

Wait a dang second..... I thought he was driving?!?

I did consider it - but did some research and found a flight and a car for a decent price - once I weighed in the "ugh" factor of driving there and back in two days (I figured my condition might be less than optimal for driving any real distance on Sunday) - it seemed to be a no brainer to fly

[dartnabout]

Wait a minute...Scampy was there? Oh yeah the conspiracy theory for Chris....BWaahhaaaa
