No wildfires out here, but this is what part of I70 on the west side of Indy looked like when I went home about 3 weeks ago. I crossed a bridge over a river that topped its banks and all of sudden it was like driving to Key West only lower.

We were on our way home from Donnelly, Id. this afternoon. Highway flashing sign said, "Wild fire ahead 29 miles." Mike said, "I know where that's at. It DB's ranch. I drop you off at the house Mom, grab my gear and get a fire truck. That was at 2:30...It's now going on 8PM. Winds have died down up at this end of the canyon which is a good sign. I'll leave a light on for him. Say a pray for all of them. Mopar Mom

Well I got around to building a spray boom to put on the fourwheeler today. Did my math wrong though. I have a 1gpm pump on sprayer and thought I could safely handle 5 nozzles without overworking the pump but the pump is to small to handle that much flow requirements. Aside from that it works great. I have a ten foot boom and only 70 dollars in it. But will have to upsize on pumps which will be another fifty dollars. - - - Updated - - -

Annual convention held in Texas this weekend, ushered in new president Jim Porter.I like what I read so far about this man.Statements so far include: 'fake president', Barack O'rabidly unamerican' attorney general Eric HolderWill hold all congressmen/senators ON RECORD who voted 'anti gun' in upcoming electionsHas made statements about training all US cititzens with 'standard military firearms' for the protection of self, family, and a tyranical govt....Has paralleled recent administrations as " Northern Aggression' (not unlike past Civil War) One thing for sure, he will certainly FAN THE FLAMES on both sides of this issue!

Alright, looking for anyone who lives in Missouri. Need to see if you have seen or heard anything on the news about this:Just recently, within a few days or so ago, my wife had some of her extended family murdered. I guess it was 6 people murdered and the guy was shot and killed by the police.If anyone here lives in Missouri and remembers hearing about this, please, I would appreciate a link to the story to share with her family.

My daily driver is squealing with the brakes... I'm really disappointed with the serive life of the pads that my mechanic has been using. Honestly, I don't drive slow but I believe in inticipating my turns & need to stop & prepositioning my vehicle in the corrrect lane... coasting off speed (like getting free gas) before finally using the brakes. It seems like every year I'm replacing brakes & the shop charges are not cheap. So, I'm going to just stick new pads on it myself. But what to get? The prices are all over. I'm out of touch with the better/lesser grades. What to get? Where to get it?Thanks, guys!

Well I'm back from the jet boat races. I was manning a safety boat so if there was any wrecks, stalls, etc. We could get out on the river and save the boat crew and the boat if possible. So this year 1 boat wrecked on test and tune day (Friday). He broke his steering and launch right up the river bank and rolled it back into the water. Both driver and navigator were fished out of the boat. The navigator got a bit injured and is at Boise, ID in the hospital. Then on Saturday races started and where quite fun to watch happen from the river bank. We had two jet boats power by Jet Turbine from helicopters. Average speed of the course was about 120-125 MPH clearing 8 miles of …
