Welcome aboard

So far it has been more work than play...we are trying to unload this storage unit before we leave town on may 9th...don't know if we can get it all out, we will try, hate paying that 99 bucks every month...\
good luck

I know there are many behind the scenes decisions before these things are scrapped, such as economics,cost of overhauling vs.buying new,service life reached,etc.,but that ship looks to me to be in good shape,but I know we don't know the full story.

Kind of awesome the way they just run it aground like that.

Kinda reminded me of the girls docking their Sea Raycers that we rented yesterday. We had the lake patrol pull us over 3x during an hour rental. . My PPST credentials were of no help.

Not my adopted son, I don't know anybody that would claim him. As has been said here before, his own mother tried to get the neighbors dog to take him and the dog ran away. Poor Ms. Amy was just unfortunate to have a thing for taking in "lost causes". My hat is off to the lovely lady.

Truth be known, he lives in one of the outbuildings on his property.

BTW. he talked about moving out of the state next year. You don't suppose
he's getting run out of the state by the authority's, do you?

From what I've heard, he will be escorted out of the state in shackles & chains. Statewide celebration the same day.

Don't worry Turbs - we can hide you out here. Lots of small towns around here.
