It sure has been a beautiful weekend here, Spring has surely sprung. My wife did a lot of yard work, and I watched. My son in law pulled up 11 large cedar hedges out of the front yard by the driveway, and got the large holes that was left filled up this evening. My wife is really tired. I sat on my 4wheeler, or was in my Diesel truck waiting for my wife to hook and unhook the log chains from the old hedges, as I pulled them with my old Powerstroke to the gullies, around the woods!! It was truly a beautiful day hanging out with my wife, grandkids, and son, and SIL!! ;D ;D

Yep it`s been really nice the last couple of days. I talked my dad into going fishing the other day for a couple of hours. We caught one each on roostertails. Opened to popup camper up yesterday by using a floor jack and some land scape timbers. I broke the main cable by over winching it a while back and it`s finally got pretty enough to try to repair it. Took 6 hours yesterday to get it open and propped open. Found the broken parts today and got stuff to fix it. Hope to have it repaired tomorrow.

Good luck with the repairs. My workers comp trial is schedule on April 13, and I hope when it's all over I can get my knees replaced. I want a camper so my wife and I can do some camping, and take the grandkids with us. We hope to get up to the Smokies this Summer too..

Yea I did a lot of yard work yesterday and then went on a 90 mile motorcycle ride in the mountains. We are going to Oklahome on the bike to a casino today as it's going to be another great one here weather wise.

I used to play slots at the Naval Air Station in Sicily. I usually came out with what I went in with. Back on the ship all we had was card games LOL.

Bike ride sounds great. Haven`t ridden in many a year. Probably hurt myself if I tried now. Haven`t ever been to a casino.
Got the popup camper fixed today.

You've just about rebuilt it haven't you? Go get you a Golden Passport and you can take it up to Loyston Point or out to the county park and camp for half fee.

I think it's called Golden Access Passport. It's for senior citizens and the disabled. Basially it's a card that allows you to camp on any federal campsite at half fee as well any national parks which charge fees it's also half price IIRC.. Back when Munchkin, me, and the kids camped out she had one. I think you can get them at O'Connor Senior Center in Knoxville or maybe city recreation office.
Loyston Point is federal land and so is Anderson County Park because it is leased to the county.
