Is Laredo better than AL?!?!?!

It's the dash for the cash, Murray. If I'd gotten one call before the other yesterday, I'd be heading to Miami right now. I've got a friend in West Palm and a sister in Orlando. Woulda been a fine weekend :)

Gonna work my way up to Ocala for a shower. Then hang a bit in Gainesville. But it's Friday so I doubt I'll be anywhere too long.

You can swing by our place and cut the grass. Lol. We are 1/2 mile off 75 in Gainesville.

Too tired to go anymore today and too hot (Laredo) to sleep in van. Going for a room now; rest up & hit it tomorrow. Currently at J; a couple Bolts, a Pen-sky, and a whole cathouse full of two-headed kitties.

Aww, darn. I blew right thru there. LOL!!
My deadhead ratio dipped too far below 30% so I'm just gonna head North.
Moving targets are hard to hit but I've got deer-damage to fix.
Found most of my parts for just under $200.
Core support, grill, TS assy & fender.
And all new, but not genuine GM, parts.

We have always been good here too. How to not spend the weekend here.

Hope you get out of Elvisville this morning. I'm DHing a lllooooonnnggg way home.
I like the fact my wife and kids need me there at least on the weekends. I spent a lot of years not being needed at home at all.
But that's enough about me!!

Ok, been busy this weekend due to my plowing through Mr Major Speedbump (6-point deer) Wednesday night.
New core support.
New left fender.
New grill.
New turn signal assy.
Yep, I even painted the fender myself. Rustoleum did fine. A little "orange peel" but I can live with it.
No insurance claim and about $225 including the new headlamp and can of spray pain.
NOW to get some revenue back on that biotch!!!!

Good for you to be able to fix yourself. Not bad total for all of that. Thankfully not worse.

I was truly fortunate that the strike didn't happen in a curve. That alone could have made the outcome MUCH worse. Seeing how the deer ended up under my left rear tire, the "airborne" effect might have been just enough for me to panic and make a bad move. Let's face it. People can tell you all day what to do and not do, but when you have about 1/10 of a second to respond it's more about "hold on" and less about a 12-step program. LOL!!

The weekend is over. Had fun and interesting weekend. Visited a gun shop/factory in Durham. Great people there, friendly and knew what they were talking about. That in it self is strange for retail these days.

Now it's back to work today. Picking up near here today, heading for ON. Then, assuming all goes well, Tues it's ON to MI.
