It is a little different having a real job,can't be here as much as I like.I check in from time to time on my Iphone,but it is really a pain in the ass to post on it.As far as the job,I hit 5 auctions a week.West Virginia on Monday,local Tuesday,today I was in Columbus,tomorrow Washington and Friday to West Va. again.I average about 1500 miles a week driving,and even though hotels are paid for,I opt to leave early in the morning.Today I was up at 3am and still had enough energy to cut my grass when I got home at 5pm.

At least I got the weekends off,and the money is nice but it's not the same. Guess I should be happy,as people would love to have my job,but I just ain't myself anymore.

We miss you too Gary. Seems pretty quite around here without you. That's a lot of miles to put on every week. Take the money while you can and keep your eyes open, you may see another opportunity. This is probably a good way to make some contacts that may be useful in the future. Hang in there and good luck.

It does seem quiet around here without you. I know I'm spending less time on here too with working on the road these days. Looking forward to seeing some pictures of your completed car. Take care and be careful with all that traveling you are doing.

My car will be done this weekend.

I will post pictures Sunday.As far as another car,I am registered at the Carlisle auction for next week,so who knows?I am looking foward to getting away for 4 days. Nothing like getting away from the daily grind and attending a car auction.

Grandsport ,you will adjust and be back to abnormal in no time .Be careful out there and check in when you can. Im not here as much either as Im in the middle of a honeydo list that keeps getting longer. Me and Joan got 3 sides of my shop painted over the last several days ,gathered more parts for the truck project ,mowed the what seems like 10 acres ,got my garden tilled and partly planted .We took off wednesday and thursday to recoup from the Bob Seger concert and wound up working harder here than we would have at work .We get another day off tomorrow for a couple of Dr. appointments and then we play on the weekend.
