Good afternoon all. We ended up getting in a nice ride yesterday up to Crystal River and stopped in Crackers for some seafood. My friend Fred and a female companion were playing out on the deck. They sounded awesome, the food was fantastic and we ran into some friends from the golf club.

The plan is to paint the cab and doors white and put the insignia for each branch on a door.

Just got off the phone with the VA about my individual unemployability. He says I'll have the results in around 2 weeks, but that whoever made the decision didn't look at my age, work history, or education. I'm hopeful

Talking about knives. So one of the kids on Jaxen's football team is a Weatherbey. I was chatting with his father at the game and forging came up. Apparently he makes knives from out of spec Weatherbey barrels. Some sick *** knives but the price is something else!
