In leu of the Corona Virus Pandemic  I have made the hard decision to retire and close the big shop. I plan to work only on personal projects with an occasional other side job taken on under certain circumstances. It is a tough decision but under the circumstances I think it would be the best...

Just to pass along a tip I just found out, many of the QT gas stations now carry non ethanol gas. I gave up the search for it many years ago in the Austin area but a counter guy at a local parts store informed me the QT stores have it. I now know where I will be buying gas for all my vehicles...

Just crossed paths with you in Wilcox Az. LOL! You were heading west on 10 while we were heading east . Boat looked good!

Well my new boat finally made it in. I think I am gonna need a bigger carport though....................................................at least I wish it was mine!

Look what decided to ride home on the boat after being in a slip at Lake Whitney. :smile20:

Judging by registration numbers it looks like it has been to Cali and back. https://austin.craigslist.org/boa/d/marble-falls-rare-carlson-css19-speed/6895942044.html

Almost forgot..........while I was in Michigan this thing hitched a ride back!! :smile27:  I'm almost catching up to how many boats Patch has!!! think.gif  :smile14:

I just got back from a quick little drive up to Michigan. While I was there a buddy of mine introduced me to Peter (the owner of Skater) and took me on a tour of the factory..  To say the least it was an extremely interesting experience. Afterwards we all went to lunch and discussed boats and...

Guess what new pontoon owner I automatically thought of when I saw this picture. Thought maybe there was  a squirrel on top of that pole!!. think.gif :smile14: :grin:

Looking like I will end getting this for a spare tow vehicle and other trips. It doesn't tow as well as the suburban but it is a lot more comfortable!! Yet another one of my parents left over toys. I think I am catching up to you Steve.

Made some reservations for 4th of July at Rio Vista in Kingsland and looking at the map it looks like it is between Inks and LBJ. I've never been on either lake so I'm looking for input and info on that area. Can you boat to both Inks and LBJ from there or is there a dam between them? Anything...

Saw this on FB. I think the owner is from the Grand Prairie area but I don't have much information on it.  Hate seeing this kind of thing happen but at least everyone was alright. It was a nice boat that I painted several years ago.

Saw this on FB. Funny but true!!! :grin:

First a Ford and now a jet boat. Im thinking I may need some counseling!!! crazy.gif

Not boating related just a little bragging on one of my grandsons. They sent me this picture of him practicing in Cali with his new Honda 450 for his first AMA motorcycle race. He will not be able to actually race until after the first of the year since he is only 15 now and turns 16 on the 24th...

Went to the boat parade on Lake Tavis  last night. There were a lot of decorated boats there but here are a few that were over the top. It was a good time.

I was at Autozone yesterday checking out and overheard this lady asking the clerk what kind of oil and antifreeze  her car needed. She bought a couple quarts of oIL and I  recommended she buy the universal premix antifreeze since she didn't know which one was in her car. When I was leaving she...
