Doing good, just working my A** off. Hard to get all the work done and build a shop at the same time. Almost done with it though. If you want to see some pics check it out here:http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=160444

You can just skip to the last couple of pages and see how it turns out.
The Camaro is about scarry fast now, it can break the tires loose on the freeway at 70 mph.

Now that we have finished the shop, wife gets her payback with a house remodel

Holy crap Michael, that facility looks absolutely fantastic!!! I first figure that you were goimg to be using it for some of your equipment and a little fraction for the toys Hahahaha. I admire you dear sir I am hoping I will be building shop, not quite as big, but one that functions just like yours. And the Soda fountain, FREAKING LOVE IT!

How'd the pecans season do for you this year?

Thanks! When I started planning years ago, believe me it was nothing like it turned out. It just kinda blew up.
My daughter is having her 15th birthday party at the shop this weekend, my hope is she and her friends really enjoy it.
Pecans on the farming side were great, Big Guy upstairs really blessed us with a great crop. On the shelling side it never really stops, prices took a big hit in the fall, but blessed again and smelled it coming and did not get hurt.
How have you been? I hope business is good.

@ Michael:
Well business is a tad, well lets say it took a halt unfortunately. I can only stay positive during this time at the moment, so here's hoping. Yeah the prices took a slight slump since last year but we still had a good season except for a 1/3 of the batch being premature and small. The late freeze didn't help any, but we were able to get em shaken and picked up before the winter snow had hit so that was a marathon in itself hahahahaha. In the end from what we had paid out very well still at about $2.43 lb., so that helped out significantly with the finances and bills till better oportunities arise.

Congrats on the kiddo's 15th, I'm sure they'll have a blast in the shop. Especially up in the soda fountain. However if I ended building the shop at a caliber like yours I would have totally put in a couple of old school arcades and a pinball. But that's the kid in me hahahaha.

@ Vince:
How's your car coming out Vinnie-Mac? Oh and Happy belated Birthday to your little one brotha!

[PIANOMN]

Thanks! He is so big!! He got to see the car today and he didn't want to leave the shop.... Just kept running around saying "vroom vroom VROOM!" lol poor kid cried when they left... I will see it today around 4.. Hopefully it is finished by then, but they said it could possibly be tomorrow now after a couple of dash warning lights went off... Update coming soon!

In other news... someone at NMSU pushed me aside for someone in the ROTC to sing the anthem at the basketball game on feb 4th... I'll keep my personal comments about what I think of the staff at NMSU to myself... But I don't understand why the White Sands color guard is going to do it when they obviously have a ROTC program that could handle it as is the case with the national anthem.... /endrant

And yet in other news I am waiting to hear back from the Hard Rock and MGM in Vegas about being hired to perform out there in March!!

[PIANOMN]

I am performing at the ramada inside the new passion lounge from 6-8 on Friday night but after I'm free. What are you thinking charlie?

[PIANOMN]

Things happen for a reason, maybe something else I planned for feb 4 idk but I do know that things always work out for the better
