    So last night I pulled an old outboard out of the garage, I bought the motor at a garage sale 12 years ago. I have never started or used the motor it just sat on the floor. I brought the motor down to the shop pulled the spark plugs and poured some startron in the carb. Cleaned the plugs and the damn thing started and idled. Had a beer and it started back up on the first pull. 1970's Evinrude 9.9 hp sportwin possibly the worlds most bullet proof motor.

    My parents property, the family lake. This place right here is where all the best times of my life have happened. It doesn’t get any better.

    My oldest was approved today to double major ( I didn't know you needed admin and course approval)! She should have 8 classes knocked out of normal curriculum thanks to her being a superstar in HS so instead of talking it easy she is hitting it hard and will have 2 BS's.
    Tough Rd but we were never much following paths, more for making trails.

    I used to look at old timers who sat on their porches and say, "man that looks boring". Now as I get older I love it. Sitting out in the heat with a beer or two and listening to nothing but the wind and birds is perfect.

    No chit? Next time you head that way you should hit me up. You'll be passing right by me I'd guess.

    He started mowing our lawn last week. Now, he is moving the third neighbor’s yard. He has
    Made $50 in the last week and I am retired from mowing. Not bad for a 9-year-old.
