Yea. I'm 51. When I'm out riding, I feel like I'm 21. After a long day on the bike I feel 21 years older than 51!

Out and about today
I saw this for sale

[Chevyland]

Not a small block
But a v6
Even had a vin sticker from AZ=street legal

[Chevyland]

Quartzsite has a lot of rock hounds, so Anne signed us up for the
at the local gem and mineral club

Our first practice, was pretty fun

[Chevyland]

But this was really cool
My grand parents were avid rock hounds
And started coming here in the 60's
My dad told me, they gave this club some of there equipment
When We went into the shop, I saw a large rock saw in the
saw room
It was behind a door, and you couldn't go in. I asked one of
the guys to go read what the plaque said on the side of
the saw. He read it to me
It said who donated it
I told him that was my grandparents, and I have great memories
of my grandpa using it
He said they call it big bertha (because it is there largest saw)
He let me in, And he took my picture with it

Hi Rick, yes I'm sure it would be a bit chilly up there. If you and your wife want a break, we have a room for you down here. I noticed you have been collecting parts for your truck on the board. I just missed that green dash pad. But it will probably look better on your truck (being all original). Hope you are well. Eric

Hey Dale, we almost hit you up for that beer on our summer Roadtrip. We ended up coming I5 to 80, and driving right by the Budweiser plant. But my son was so excited to get home to his girlfriend, he wouldn't let me stop. Plus it was our longest day driving the whole trip. You know how it is at the end of a vacation. You just want to get home. When I get back to the Bay Area, we need to get some truck guys together, and hook up. Eric

Really happy with the truck, drove it to all my HS football games and it worked great. Currently in the shop to replace the cab corners and headliner like you suggested.

That is cool.Gotta make you proud of your grand folks I bet it made your trip.Thanks for the offer, man that warm weather is tempting.Rounding up some parts for the 72 might go to some car shows this summer.If you have some extra time look on S.Dak. Craigs nice 72 on there says originally a Califonia pickup.I bet it would look good in Sonoma!Tell Brad hello from me.

That makes two of us.I've been searching for a K series burb for a long time. I grew up where I'm at. But have a place in Sierra County too. I'm currently negotiating on a place in between Carson City and Fallon. California gun laws make me want out!!!

Thanks. Took a cruise this afternoon.
I'm in Petaluma almost every week. The redevelopment down town is now quite nice! Not just a cow town anymore. When did you leave?

Down here. They are very proud of their gun laws. Many people carry guns concealed and open. When I'm out and about you often see people carrying. When I was at DMV last year waiting in line, a guy finished his business, the clerk then came around from her cubicle, walked him to the door, opened up a lock box. He reached in, pulled out his 44 magnum and stuffed it in his pants. And left.

I'm not a gun buff, but my brother likes anything that makes noise or blows **** up. Last year when he visited, he broaght an arsenal. We would just go out and shoot.

This bad boy was a thrill to hold on to !!

[Chevyland]

Although, I did buy 1 gun

[Chevyland]

Has anyone ever seen one

[Chevyland]

Of these?
