Ahh, springtime.....

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 04 25, 2019 •  [Post 1]

And a young man's fancy (well, not really young) turns to love, the glory of the changing season, the trees changing from blooms to leaves..... Ha, no not that... it turns to big blocks :lol:. It's finally a nice enough day in Western WA that the old rust bucket gets to shake the winter cobwebs off and give me a ride to work tomorrow :D.

Bryan, no I haven’t. I really only do 4 or 5 a year in W WA with all I have going on. She does do well here ;)

Pretty!!!!
She does look good.

At one time I wanted to put together a muscle car or an old pickup. That urge passed with my brother. He was a 69 Mustang nut. He had three more mustangs he was working on and a few more "carcass starts.
Heck I don't even get to fish I'm so busy,..

Red looks awesome. It looks like we have a sprinkling of good weather ahead, so Red can be out more.

What the hedoublehockeysticks happened to the wood grain panel siding and Texas Longhorns we put on it for you last year ???? It is almost like you don’t appreciate our efforts.

RJ talks a good game about WapitiTalk bumper stickers, but do you see any on his Red? NO! He still has a dozen. Put one on each door and two on the trunk lid. :D

Red has lots of show
Just curious if Red has a time on 1/4 mile and top end 8-) just seeing the valve covers on Red sends shivers down my spine
GM products and dark haired girls were never my thing, however I do appreciate beauty!!

I still have one bumper sticker left that is not on the pickup. Maybe I can stop by RJ's and place it in the back window of Big Red. It appears that RJ is not paying attention to the forum, so maybe he has taken Red to work. I don't know if I can go on base to decorate things.

Just curious if the coal Christmas sentence can run concurrent with the ones I have already acquired? Otherwise I may have to buy some coal mining stock.

Do you have asparagus in your area Whitey? They should be coming out soon. We had them over where we lived near Winthrop.

I just saw where I was adding to my coal sentence. I am glad I got back to edit it, or I would be a long time washing dirty Christmas socks.

I found a few stalks of what looked exactly like asparagus growing in my woods, but it was pinkish purple. Did not eat, but i thought about it.

Where I found the asparagus was right by the irrigation canals near home. I never ran into any in the forest. I never found any purple asparagus either, and like you would pass on the purple stuff.
