    Default Finally got her on the road!

    Well, I finished cleaning up the wiring, installed a keyswitch, fuse panel, hummer tail lights. Fired her up and went for a spin with my son and neighbor. This is the 1st ride since I bought it back December, other than driving it off of the trailer.

    All I can say, is wow, that was fun! I had the soft top off and even though it is only in the 40's it was plenty warm for a trip around town.
    Thanks, George

    For mid February, today wasn't bad at all. I live in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago, and I'm happy to see the snow starting to melt away. Not a bad day to test drive your truck. Glad it worked out for you.

    Thanks guys.

    Gun deer season was good in that my son took a nice deer. This is his second, and the big smile is still priceless. I got down from my stand and helped him track it. It didnt go far.

    I didnt shoot anything, but it wasnt from a lack of opportunity. With my son tagging one I dont mind being a little selective. I let quite a few pass, (some small) to prolong the season.

    This last year was the busiest year at work, and the first year in over 10 that I haven't bow hunted. I never got the time to practice this year, and despite the flingarrows name, I wont hunt unprepared to make a good shot. It was a bummer sitting out bow season, but I did get the truck running.
    Thanks, George

    Sounds like a great season to me. Iv not hunted the last 2 years only taking my daughter. Says a lot for a guy that would ask for a lay off in Oct and stay off tell broke or season went out. Same problem to busy at work not enough time to scout. She missed a doe( excited) but iv never been more proud when she watched a very nice 135+ buck walk wating on a good shot. Planing on doing some early bow this season. Freezer filling but mainly scouting for her. If she dose well maybe then I will hit it hard?
