well, not much to update as far as the truck goes but I did get my MBA finished up. That should free up a little free time this winter to finish up the rockers, cab corners, doors and other little parts of the cab.

Due to the National Guards mismanagement of field grade promotions I am forced to wait until next summer, or later, for my promotion to Major. I moved into the job last spring and will lose over $10,000 this year because of their problem. But I still have to do the job so no sense in whining about it... This extra money was going towards body and paint, promised by the wife, but will have to wait now.

I did renovate the kitchen for her over the past 6 weeks so it should win me some "bonus points" to use in the garage this winter... 2st pic is how we bought it in 2006, 2nd is our semi-cleanup that we've had since then and now the final... spent about $3,000 to do it all, including granite.
