Hello Crew.
Sorry for the absence. Been sort of crazy lately.
I had the pleasure of driving a Friend's deuce & a half in our Christmas parade.
The one theme or rule if you will, is your entry must be lighted.
The local VFW & AMVETS lodge puts the lights on the rig every year but this year they
had to draft an old truckdriver. Their regular driver was not available.
We had so much fun I'm going to shop for "after new year sales" discount lights
so we can enter the M37 next year.

I thought that you and Lori had won the lottery and forgotten about us..............
Glad to hear that you are still here. Nice picture, thanks for sharing.

No Way Bert!
Even when we do win the lottery you won't be rid of me that easy.

Re: 2016 Christmas Parade
Hey Bert & Gary.
Along with our M37 & the Willys Jeep, I ran across yet another "I can't live without it" toy.
"We" purchased an old "sandrail" and I want to build a replica of the ones the Navy Seals used.
Soon as I get things squared away in the shop (and a few other details) I'll get a few pictures posted.
My Lori's "M" will always get tour undivided attention but a boyzzz got to have his toyzzz.
