My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

So.... my trucks ugly step-sister showed up for a visit and well, it was such a special occasion I had to take a couple pics of them mingling.

It is a 4 cylinder automatic with the same paint, tape and interior codes with that northeast rot going on.




Edit: yes it was snowing yesterday so the white stuff is messing with my pics

You guys do realize that for all the money you spend on all this gear and getting it ready and setting it up and taking it down, you can stay in the Holiday Inn express for about 10% of that.

I spend about 2-3 months a year in a Holiday inn. I spend most of my free time when I’m there planning my next camping trip lol.

I’m going straight to hell!

Very frustrating stressful week. Weeks. So I was driving the red 97, got done with my last thing, I was heading home, and I needed milk and a couple things. Then I had my evil idea, a moment of weakness, I’m scum!

I bought a pack of Klondike bars. I hope He forgives me. My Doc, he thinks he’s god.

The Lord above was watching, tested me. They were out of dark chocolate, I’m a weak sinner, and I bought them anyway, the original, not any of the weird flavors. Yeah, I know it’s not soup...

I hope He forgives me, cuz I’m still going to eat one, the devil in me....

Sir I know my smells. My truck may have smelled like rotting clams, a sardine orgy, partially digested captain crunch, armpit onions, and the farts of a 14th century street urchin, BUT NOT OLD PEOPLE!
