NFA-ADK Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I cleaned out the rain gutters yesterday WOW those dam bugs bread in thier!!! I was going to finish the rest of the house today but with this heat I think I will bring my cats in my room and turn on the AC and post on here like dave... Days like today I am happy I decieded to switch trades over 15 years ago, because working on a 230deg + vehecle in this heat sucks!!! And dealing with chevy customers was not much better mainly due to horrible products...

You know how to use a shovel right.. Yup, did landscaping, etc when I was in college. Played a double header in men's softball last night, it was a beautiful night. Did'nt sound like we were crying,just some chating.I love to be outdoor's no matter what the weather is would'nt want to be in a stuffy office all day. I agree. That's why I am happy I only work a 35hr work-week with 6+ weeks vacation my friend. The rest of my time is spent outside, fishing, golf, hunting, softball, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
