My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
I have a list in the for sale ads. I have a few other odds and ends on FB marketplace. If you need any of my stuff I need to know by Monday when I load up for the trip. I'm getting underway Tuesday to stop in the Daniel Boone National Forest for a couple days on my way north.

It’s going to be a close thing for me being able to attend. It depends on when my military pay drops from this last drill weekend and unit inspection. The holidays always manage to screw with that some. So, it’s going to be a last minute decision.

I was thinking if @lil_Blue_Ford still wanted the Bronco II canister fuel filter assembly and @sgtsandman didn't mind getting over closer to you I would bring it if it works for both of you.

I also don't mind bringing my Dorman fuel line kit if anyone needs any nylon fuel line repairs... The tool works really good. Grab the parts you need and we will push them together. If we use any of the parts from the kit just pay for me to restock the kit. If no need for it though... I would rather just leave it all in the garage.

I'm also going to take the final head count Monday/Tuesday next week to determine what supplies to bring for campfire pizza.

I'm not going to be able to make it this year. Too many things going on, and I've got a laundry list of things I'd really like to do on the truck before putting it through another road trip.

If I can make the trip, he isn’t that far out of the way to make a stop.

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!

I may be picking @lil_Blue_Ford up on the way out there and dragging him along.

I'm also sad to say... the G-Unit isn't gonna make the trip. The to do list is too long and I'm just making slow progress with it. It doesn't help any that I have had to refocus my energy to this new flipper house to get it move in ready.

I'm actually at the new house fixing a leak in the sink drain and replacing the bottom of that cabinet. The I'm doing base cove moldings in the living room because the fresh paint is now dry.

I can only work on my hands an knees so long as I'm up in years little buddy.

Up in years? You're in the prime of your life. Retired and still alive. Go get 'em, tiger!
