Thank you chris!

How about that latest prototype home page drew has worked up, have ya seen it??
 
Well the cards have fallen for the month of December and unfortunately I won't be able to attend the IHSTO Christmas party. Even though it was on the calendar first it got trumped by a church event. It would be so much easier if my wife was into wrenching.

I could fight it and go solo but there would be a price to be paid. Sometimes it's better to choose our battles. :nono:

if things change I will post it. But for now looks like I won't be spreading any Christmas cheer at the party.
 
Well then drew it looks like ya will never see yore dam sweatshirt agin until the bee next summer!

It's in tha trailer now for delivery. Should I give it to someone ta use for a dawg flop???
 
I got okra and maters and turnip greens packed! That's a real sacrifice on my part but it is for the greater good.
 
For those of you who missed the annoucment on the bb, I will not be able to make it this year, as I can't get out of work. No worries however as Dad will be taking over in my place.

Hope you all have a great time!
 
We hope the annual IHSTO xmas shindig was a success! We didn't make it but half way!

Lost a passenger side front wheel bearing while jerkin' the trailer house. Found it smokin' when we pulled off for alkeegazz at brownsville. So a quick call to the rv roadservice hotline and we were onna IH rollback and headed home by the time the chow line opened!

Kathy emailed the raffle item list to lyle so he could give away iou's for the goodies we were bringing. We'll make certain the stuff finds it's way to it's new home when lyle tells us where to send it! The big box of canned items we gathered will be given to our local food drive so the stuff will go where it needs to go.

Stuff happens, that's life, we'll try agin next year!

Merry xmas to all!
 
Yes, we had a great party. People were inquiring about you and kathy. Someone even had money for you, Mike.

There were about 60 in attendence, with a number of new faces.

As in the traditional IHSTO fashion, we had plenty of great food and desserts, only thing is, I never made it to the dessert line. ): too busy with the raffle drawing. But I'm told there is still some desserts left in the church fridge. I will have to check it out tomorrow after the worship service.

Many thanks to all who attended. Also, thanks to those who helped set up, in the kitchen and cleanup. Also appreciated were the raffle prizes donated by the members. Thanks to all of you!

A great event to start off the Christmas season.

Merry Christmas to all,

lyle
 
Money for me?? Could be chris???

Hope he didn't write that check with drew's methodology...disappearing/invisible ink! That would be the hot tickee right here at santeeclaws-time!

I'll hold them crank pulleys hostage for now...but I better get 'em up to him soon or he'll hold our trailer hostage too and then wanna negotiate a prisoner exchange maybe in silverton??? At the roth xmas tree farm/body shoppe/boneyard?
 
We had a great time. Good food and fellowship. This having been our first IHSTO chistmas party it is now on our yearly list of must do's.
Thanks to everyone involved.
 
Great that yawl made the event wes!!!

You were the first person I thought to call to come rescue the raffle prizes and food (and kathy!). When I searched my phone for your number, nothing came up! Can't believe I don't have ya in my dbase, I have over 1350 folks in that memory card. I had your card sitting on my desk but never entered the number!

Your number is in the phone list now though!
 
Mike
would have been there in a heartbeat for you. I was even home early and was only about 10 minutes away. Glad to here you made home ok though.
 
Somehow I knew you would be available wes! That's why you were the first I though of, didn't need a tow, just a way ta git tha xmas goodies up to the pardee!

Anyway...now I'm boxin' all the "time-sensitive" raffle items and gettin' 'em shipped out. Tha grub....I done ate it over the last two days, afterall...it wuz "dessert" stuff!

Yawl find sum time durin' the holidays ta come up for a carbswap session anda visit! Tha guest room is ready, Matt g. Didn't mess it up too bad and tha sheets are clean!

I verified that revulcanized rubber from 34-year-old spring bushings comes out of your hair after 4 washings! But yes, my head was clean when it hit the pilllow. :)
