I have had computer trouble for a while now and the ONLY site I can't access is these forums. I'm really irritated that no one can figure out what happened. Anyway, I'm on my wife's lap top, which sucks, but I wanted to post some pics of the car I bought last week. It's still in Florida and won't leave until t...

Unfortunately with my new job and other things I have planned for 2011, I can't commit the time I need to for the club, so I won't be running for president. I wanted to make sure it was known, so someone can step in and continue on where we have left off, and most likely help us grow even more. I will be more th...

Looks like my work is 'cut' out for me. That pine was 25' tall, good news is it missed the house and other trees. If it would have fallen the other way, in the street, the city would have picked it up.
