Rip Van Winkle projects
How many of you have had your project go to sleep for more that a year? Pictures required.
One of mine at 5 years. I almost want to tuck it in and put a pillow under the front end. One of my good intentions and got busy with everything else. Its amazing how something that big turns invisible for that long. |

Re: Rip Van Winkle projects
I was diagnosed with cancer just days more than a year ago. All my projects have been asleep since then and I'm just now starting to believe I'll be picking them up again.

Re: Rip Van Winkle projects
steve were praying for your health to return! as a cancer survivor also(18 years) the old vehicles kinda slide down the priority list a ways.
