Froader and Section coming to Texas

Let's think about this. Why would we swap in the same motor? You know you want to throw a five oh in there someday. Why not skip a step and do it now? Jamie takes VISA, MC, Discover, IOUs, and favors.

Well, we bought new homeowner's insurance just for this special occasion. :p

Not really, had to get it for our closing, but I did find out what's covered so we should be pretty good. ;)

I am calling our contact today, to make sure that this particular weekend will be good for a little engine testing after the swap, at Comanche Ridge.

22 days and counting...... :eek:
 






Comanche Ridge is Booked

Ok, made my phone call today.

Comanche Ridge is ours,

along with a few full-size Broncos to make it interesting.
:D

Please let me know, like 410, if I need to add more. ;) We will have my son's room, fold out bed, air mattress, tent, .75 acres of land, or if anyone wants there is a little cool motel called Lost Pines Inn, like 4 miles down the road...just didn't know who was staying with us or what the plans are.

Now I know that Zavaral and Babygirl will be joining us, but they live close to us. Need to get hold of hiridin though and get his truck down to the house. :D
