Hey there, How is everyone?

Good hear. Temp in the truck showed 119 today. Supposed to be hotter tomorrow, can't wait. Plan on sittin in the pool all day tomorrow.

Been having a good time 'round here recently. Went camping this past weekend with my brother, his old lady and a bunch of our friends. I pulled up my brothers toy hauler and the rhino to test out the new twins. Truck ran great. Got a little hot running up some of those hills. Truck's EGTs were great when I was on it. 7% grades w/ the 11k or so behind me when I wasn't being stopped by traffic allowed me to run 65 with relative ease....It was nice to get out of the valley however, relax and hang out with good family and friends.

Hope you all get the opportunity to do the same tomorrow!

Happy 4th, early

Josh

Talking Good to Hear from ya JBark!

must be something to have that kind of crowd and heat. Go hard ahead for your future, son!! heh where the Marines are now, that heat won't even phaze you........and don't call anyone! an 'ol lady'.....not if you are still looking for one!! East Coast Mom

got the tree tractor running fine, after a lot of head scratching and replaced return line. even 'burped' it and it started right up! helps to live near a truck stop or have neighbors that have farmed with diesels their whole lives...
got wood splitting to do now. Boat to get in the water after a once over the engines and a solid cleaning. got invited to a pirate party the 24th this month, they even have rules! all day event- most booty (bounty actually) wins. planning on coming out of the water in a dry suit dressed as a pirate on the inside. I am the only one that will come by boat, hehehehe evil laugh.

everyone hug their honey a little tighter, tell them your pleasant thoughts NOW, pay attention to your youngins ahead of them yelling for you to watch!
life is short, we don't get many reminders of that. God Bless!! Our troops!!

Mornin' all,

Flash Flood Watch
Independence Day: Showers and thunderstorms likely. Some of the storms could produce heavy rain. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 84. East wind around 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%.
Dieseldude4x4 here is the forcast in place of the current weather report.
To find the current weather isn Houston, I open the door and there it is


Happy 4th.
We are blessed. Our son who is in the Army is on leave and with us this week. It is good to see him. His is looking great, army life agrees with him.

, had to start another pot, the finest around, special blend, clean sock and all.

ChrisR great posts, will show them to our son. Shirley's bosses told her to thank our son for his being there. And she did. Thank you also CIN. now get that chocolate launcher is action.

jbjarko, listen to your "DTR east coast mom!"
Sound like a fun party, I miss Arizona, and the heat. 119 is a bit much. When it got that hot the tranny temp would read 160-175 before the truck was started. Whew, it is hot then.

Wannabe, so the pesky tractor is runnin great, is that the 3 cyl diesel you were working on?
Now get in your boat, and go for a fun cruise today, and enjoy the 4th.
What kind of booty do you need for the pirate party? If you post a list, maybe I have some booty stashed that I could send you. Now take care of your self. Life is short, eat your desert first.

Have a good 4th and be safe out there.

morning, how's this day off in the middle of the week treatin everybody? Sure would have been nice to roll this day into a long weekend, but dang, right smack in the middle of the week? Don't get me wrong, I'll take the day off, just hard to get much of anything done in a day. Well I put an extra scoop of beans in the coffee, maybe that boost will get a project done.
Whole hearted thank you to all who have served and are serving to keep our freedoms as they are, no matter what the politicians have up their sleave.

HAPPY 4th Of July Everyone Lazy day of what all I'm going to be doing, for once I don't have to get things done by a certain time other than maybe be in bed early tonight so I can go to work early tomorrow. I got a new trailer brake controller so I've got to go set that up. And I'm going to wander around Best Buy in a town about an hour away to see what all they have that I want but don't want to afford.
Thank you to the people that have and are allowing us to be able to take this day in rest, the American Service Man.

Morning, all. Final drill today, we won. I did good, platoon did good. Feel good about it.
Happy 4th. Be safe, everyone. Remember, beer and fireworks don't mix. You might spill your beer and put the roman candle out...

Enough celebrating... back to the paperwork...

Cool, me too. That's how I decide whether to ride the scooter in the morning or not. The weatherman around this area can't predict their way out of the office, the weather changes so fast.

You're not in on all that flooding I hope.

Wink GREAT NEWS- running on empty Senior drill!

very nice to hear! what a wonderful thing to have papa duck so proud of all the little quackers, er marines! seriously, extreme pride up here in the north for you!! who was your mentor? go find your family and muster out for a month!

THANK A VETERAN TODAY! hold the door open, stop them in the parking lot to shake their hand; I, personally, kiss a few cheeks when I see the ballcap displaying their pride! God can Bless them but we should let them know how we feel.

CHRISR- you got the right post my friend, good job!
nice to see the new faces in here, please have some macaroni salad, cake and hold a sparkler....

yeah davey, a mitishubishi 3 cyclinder, kept getting a small amount of air in the lines but didn't know from where. start from one end to the other, only way to do it but didn't want to. lotsa power now, new head gasket and glow plugs. now I have work to do so I better get to it.
pirate stuff has to be stolen, begged, traded or won from another party go-er. heheh I am sooooo ready for a day of fun.

ice cold drinks in the cooler, picnic spread over on the table- enjoy tonight's fireworks friends!
