I didnt get mine out hardly any last year and I regret every minute of it. I think I had it out maybe twice during the spring. Thats it. This year has been a lot better. Been out in it almost every weekend in 2011. It was down for two weeks waiting on a starter solenoid. The boat is getting some TLC. Gave her a bath earlier this afternoon, but the list goes on.

Make the trailer road worthy
Fix the live well
Get some type of electronics in it. Mostly for depth
Get the engine tuned up
Rewire all the current electronics.

Fixed the lights and starter this past weekend.



I like that Procraft. My buddy just sold his 2001 model. I wish I could have bought it.

Over the past couple day I found out what kind of community I live in. I really thought I would be busting my *** trying to clean up, help, fix etc... people houses, but everyone around had the same idea. By lunch time Thursday (April 28) everything that could have been cleaned up had been. It really put it in perspective what type of people I live around.

The storm went just south of my place, but I have many friends all over the lake.

This was a metal building





Thats it across the road



There is nothing left of the Military base


And here is the bad stuff. The neighborhood a good friend of mine lives in.












There used to be house there ^^^

Behind my friends house


Someones boat


Used to be a nice dock right here.


Now my friends place. He got really lucky. Every tree in his yard had been blown over, but they only took out his deck






His neighbors house completely off the foundation

Tuscaloosa is pretty much like that, leveled. I had to go and take some food and cash to a friend[she usually just uses a debit card that no one can take in town due to no satellite, telephone lines not working, cell towers on overload]. I really was wanting to avoid the President since he was in town and got lucky enough to get there an hour after he left. Our friend is the store manager for Rack Room Shoe's store in Midtown Village. She was there when it hit. They have holes in the roof, windows knocked out on the store, her car lost both driver's side windows and got scratched up. I ended up taking a tour I didn't want to get there. The police were rerouting traffic away from there. The detour put me through some neighborhoods with minor damage[trees down, tin in trees,etc], ended up at the University Mall[the one in the U Tube video where the guy recorded it from a vehicle]. I was able to walk across to her store and take her food/cash. While I was there, we all finished rearranging the shoes away from the roof leaks and finished securing the store. She actually spent the night there after the storm with her regional manager who happen to be headed back through. They had no way to properly lock the store up with the door broke, so they guarded it all night. Good thing too, had several people walk by and pull on the door she said, which stopped when they shined their flashlights inside. I won't go back, way too many people just walking around sight seeing. I came home and stopped by another friends house and started cutting on her trees[5] in her driveway. Knew her since grade school, just couldn't leave her completely screwed. I feel for the people in Tuscaloosa, but I'm starting with home area 1st. I have to drop the saw off to get fixed and a new chain to finish the last 3. The best thing they could do would be chipping all of the limbs for mulch and send the trees to the lumber mills, they'll need every 2x4 they can get.

There used to be three houses right here. My friends house was on the far left. She, her husband and their 3 y/o daughter were in the house.

Got me a brand new slant dash B yesterday!!!
It needs a little TLC, here are some pics of it and then the trouble areas I have identified so far;




















It also comes with a full set of matching front and rear cultivators;

Also got me a “new” John Deere L yesterday too!
Here are some pics of my newest family member and some pics of missing/broken parts that I have found so far;















Anyone got a line on any of these missing/broken parts?

So I've been trying to sell my 2009 factory 20's and tires for awhile now, until I found a post on my local craigslist entitled "WTB: 20" Wheels and Tires for '06 F-250." So I contacted him, told him what I had, sent him a few pictures of the setup, and told him make me an offer, or I'm open for trades. He replied and said "Well, I'm kinda low on cash now, because I just got out of court for 8 tickets. I've got a bike I'll trade even with ya." I said, OK, let me see some pics, and what kind of bike is it? To be honest, I wasn't really interested, because I have no need for a bike, and I don't want anything else sitting in the garage. he reply's with the picture I will list at the bottom, and says, "It's a 2002 suzuki gsf 1200." I was like, "Holy crap, I want this thing." So I give him a call and here's the lowdown on the bike:

2002 Suzuki GSF 1200 Bandit
-15,000 miles
-Yoshimura exhaust
-Brand new upgraded carburetor jets
-Recently cleaned carburetor
-Brand new tires
-Two 2" long scratches on the body
-Otherwise in perfect condition



You think I made the trade? :hehe: I'm gonna go pick it up this week most likely. Probably just gonna sell it though.
