Took a trip to Randy's yesterday
Well my self and dieselwrencher's brother nick, left the homestead at 7am saturday morning headed toward meridan KS. The trip was good, nice weather and no problems, and we got some nice goodies from Randy. As always like to thank Randy for holding onto the stuff for us and it was good to seem him again. We also got to meet some new people and find some new roads(lol). The only complaint is my back is a little sore from riding in that 1 ton all day. Yes we made a day of it. We got back around 10:30 last night and helped Ryan work on his new building for a bit.
I almost forgot to mention the food. We stopped there in Bethany, MO at the legendary Toot Toots, for some nice grub. Any way if y'all ever need some nice parts and don't mind a road trip then get a hold of Randy(Teeitup) and point her towards KS. He always welcomes ya and has really nice stuff.

Glad you guys made it down and back without any major hiccups. It doesn't hurt to take the scenic route once in a while. I've done that a couple of times myself... MAPS? Real men don't need no stinking maps!!!.. ![]()

Hey Mathew, it was good to meet you and Nick Saturday. Glad you got back OK. The driveway will never be the same, but there was a trans under that protective dirt shell. Take care guys.
