Cool, be nice to meet another local! You gonna camp or just come out for the day? I was there Friday morning doing some GPS runs and trying to figure out why my engine likes to spit oil at me!


Brad- You're bringing the steaks!

 Yea, The motors back in it, just need to finish putting the pump back together.  But the trailer has some issues.  One of the bearing buddys flew off somewhere, it has 2 flat tires and the fenders still aren't mounted.  :banghead:

ok, put the pump back together...

you dont need no stinkin bearing buddy!  ;D  ...go to west marine, outdoor world...any RV supply place...they got them.

how bad are the flats? slow leaks? get yourself a can of fixaflat....better yet....take them down to your local tire place and have them float them in a bucket of water....could be something as simple as a bad stem.

and fenders can be mounted in an evening....

do i need to bust out the SCJB pom poms too?  ;D
