Sons

 These are my sons. 15 years difference between them . They both remind me of myself at their ages. I loves these guys. 

Out in Pisgah

 Out in Pisgah National Forest with the family. This is one of my favorite spots. to streams of water come together here. Makes for a great place to day camp, ( no night camping here).The trail from here is one of the best i have meandered up. Follows the river( creek) for a while.

Adventure with Kerry

 Yesterday's was a adventure. i decided to try and fix my Van . so i did a bit of research and from what i read on forums. i should start with this part. it is called * Idle control Valve *  . on a van it is not that easy to get to but i was able to get it changed and it seems to of fixed the issue. Now that it is fixed, off to a friends house i go. He lives about a hour and 1/2 away ( due to traffic issues on the interstate). I take back roads. So i get about  45 mins from my house and i have a insta flat. I pull over and ... no spare, and no jack. so i call said friend and he come to save me. also a hour away. We walk down the road to the Mexican restaurant and get back in time for him to show up. We get the tire off and see the hole in it is about the size of my pinky finger. three plugs side by side fixes this issue. Now we are on our way ... again to this friends house. I notice a roaring sound that is getting louder now. yes  yes. now the wheel bearing is going out, But i did make it to his house and home. very loud roaring now. nice Adventure huh?
