Default Re: GUYS CHECK THIS OUT!

Tom

Thanks for the reminder! But "SLOW DOWN"??????? Now that's funny! Maybe I should explain...at 2347.miles on the new truck, the check engine light came on last night. On Star says there is something wrong with the fuel line. Not wanting to cause farther damage, I didn't feel it wise to drive the truck 40+ miles this a.m. And, because the cops are just a bit too familiar with Muffin, I had no choice but to take the "other" Camaro.

Well, by the time I was done at the grocery store, and the grain elevator the trunk was full. Not to worry, the two bales of hay I picked up from a local farmer fit perfectly in the back seat. The real trouble came when I stopped at an antique store and discovered the rocking chair I simply had to have wouldn't fit in the passenger seat. However, a farm girl is never without baling wire and in a few minutes that ole rocked was anchored solidly on the roof.

I got home,(without getting arrested this time)unloaded the car and put her back just like she was never out...I got most of the hay out of the back. The scratches left by the rocker and baling wire are hardly noticeable after I hit them with a little bit of rubbing compound. And the trunk looks real good too since I hosed it out to get rid of the mess the exploded soda cans made.

Don't spend that bail money yet... After such a good trip, I think I am going to drive her to a hog roast tonight. You know, one of those deals where everyone drives out to the middle of a big field......
