Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

I love the small campers. I'm disappointed I missed out, due to not being able to buy right when I saw it, on a newer bugger one. It was a tandem axle with squared lines from the '70s in pretty good shape. It had been stored under a carport all it's life. It was probably as short as you would find in a tandem. Not all dented up, the interior was ok but I would have redone to suit me. Would have been perfect behind my '72 K2500. Oh well. I'll build one if I don't end up finding one to buy that I like

I have never smoked, and I have never given anyone a hard time about their smoking either. I will say I feel I couldn't be any healthier at 67 years of age and one of the many things I credit for that is not smoking. Heredity plays a large role in many health issues. What I know I have in mine is heart/artery issues, diabetes, and aneurisms. My dad smoked for many years, but did quit many years before his passing. He passed due to the diabetes, he had an abdominal aneurism repaired, very late in life, he had two heart attacks back when he was smoking (in his 40s) and had his corroded arteries cleared, also late in life. He passed away at 79, about 11 years older than I am now. My oldest sister smoked many years, up to a point. She was always very health conscious, except she smoked. She died from a brain aneurism bursting at 2 weeks past her 40th birthday. My grandmother (Dad's mom) also passed due to a brain aneurism, but at a fairly elderly age. She also smoked. I could be next, but I believe my chances are better in all this risks due to living with the belief "health is our greatest wealth", and adhering to that with my lifestyle. I hope I didn't just jynx myself!
