My oldest and his best friend stopped by and hauled off his old S10 pickup today. Glad to have it and some of his junk out of the garage gone. The S10 had been here for over a year and also I need all the room in the garage for my junk now that I got two big projects. I will be hauling home another truck load of parts soon. Looking at pulling the motor and transmission out of a 1947 Dodge Power Wagon a 230 flathead and putting the later 251 flathead with a few upgrades in its place.

39th anniversary today, took the wife to Shane jewelry store, breakfast at first watch now. Laying out by the pool later, with beverages and smokes. Congratulations buddy, that’s one heck of a milestone! Wishing you many more!

Heat wave continues at a very unprecedented rate here as today’s temperature expected to top out at 118f. With all the dryness I suspect our forest fire season will begin a lot sooner also. Out of the frying pan into the fire.

The big one south of us is just on the other side of the Verde River. If it hops Highway 260, we will prep to leave. Praying for you. Thanks, Ron.

So not having fun. Had a massive heart attack Friday night. Have had 3 procedures since being admitted to get me stabilized. Hopefully will get out of here by Tues. Much rather be in my own bed. 😀

Wow Eric,
I am so sorry to hear that, I hope that the damage from the heart attack wasn’t too extensive. While you are hospitalized, have someone else be your eyes and ears also… good to ride herd on the goings on… trust me, they make mistakes in the hospital.
I will pray for a swift recovery, and a quick return home for you.

You had a close call, so let's get this problem under control and you back where you belong.

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate the thoughts and prayers. Sounds like I am going to be moving pretty slowly for the next couple weeks. My wife was telling me she contacted our contractor guy to finish my mancave as that is what I have working on the last several weekends. She said I am in no condition and she will have him get it done. Yea for the wife. 😀

You know you have reached that special time in your life. When you can shuffle your way to the bathroom in nothing but a untied hospital gown while two pretty nurses watch you from the back. And all you can think of is "Get off my lawn". 😀

Has anyone heard from Dewayne lately? I have not noticed his posts of late. Yes thank you for the reminder he sounds like he is doing well working long days in the saddle. I will let him tell the rest of his story.
