What a day it was! My Parents, brother and neices came to visit our beautiful home in S.C. While my Mom had the kiddos out shopping for school clothes, my dad, brother and I decided to tinker with the truck. I already had the distributor out so we had to find its timing from the start. I changed the oil and it poured out like water all over the garage floor. We took the inspection plate off to reveal little rust and to make sure all the lifters, pushrods and rockers were moving freely. We put oil in it, reinstalled the distributor and ran the battery out before it even sounded like it wanted to start. After the battery out of my SUV, a can of ether, and alot of turning the distributor, IT CAME to LIFE. It blew all kind of black carbon and rust out of the tail pipe. The first time it was short lived, like maybe 2 seconds. After the shimer of hope we kept at it until we were able to run a squeeze bottle of gas through the carb and actually created heat throughout the motor. After Chandler got back we acted like we hadn't got it started yet and put him in the Cab to turn over the motor while we poured gas in the carb..... VVVVVRRRRRROOOOMMMM. He had a smile from ear to ear. It simply amazes me knowing this truck has sat for 15 years and we got it started in an afternoon worht of work. Enjoy the pics. </div></div></div></div></div>Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-56598576336360300302009-08-15T07:01:00.000-07:002009-08-15T07:22:11.047-07:00Pics worth sharingThese pics are from just after we got the truck home in our driveway. Chan and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Rylea</span> were both very excited about this old truck. They washed and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">vacuumed</span> the truck in our driveway, a friend of Chan (Shawn) came over and worked on both the trucks side by side. Chan changed the coil, spark plug wires and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">gaped</span> the plugs "inside" the engine compartment. The first time we showed Jen the engine, her response was "what is missing". So much room, the way they used to build them. Emma even lounges around with the kids while they sit in it and listen to the AM/FM radio.

It was a huge chore but thanks to friends with storage and the Goodwill store we cleared over 25 boxes and saw the 2 car garage come to life. We put the truck up on jacks and removed the tires. 15 years of sitting creates alot of area for "Creature Comforts". We removed so many spider webs and spiders it was kinda creepy. I am sure we haven't seen all of them.

It is a restoration Ford F-100 that will keep Chandler and I busy for the next couple of years. He just turned 14 and I thought it was a great buy to work on and hand the keys over to him on his 16th Birthday. (As long as he can keep his act together) Over all the truck is super solid and has great potential for minimal body work and paint. My initial plan is to lower the ride height a little, put a disc conversion kit on it and redo the body. Currently it has a 240 inline six cylinder that doesn't run. It was a new short block installed that never got completed. No plans at this time to do anyhing more than get it running and make sure the drive train is solid.<br /><br /><div></div></div>Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-73627020094747780892009-03-27T18:58:00.000-07:002009-03-27T19:10:59.988-07:00Harleyville MX and new Digital SLR camera<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6O_vDo9kJrZwyNXimrtCuYMVEpbagoNonrMKXkvjc-NgvH5MA6iDelA4qIWig_3V9GmIGwkUpkrW9zHg8qug2Lsbk2lZsSLmeeVJZUWlMz6l3iEBMn1whuALjPGbBfvhs0R9eM5f61nM/s1600-h/DSC0815.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318053372272433762" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 134px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6O_vDo9kJrZwyNXimrtCuYMVEpbagoNonrMKXkvjc-NgvH5MA6iDelA4qIWig_3V9GmIGwkUpkrW9zHg8qug2Lsbk2lZsSLmeeVJZUWlMz6l3iEBMn1whuALjPGbBfvhs0R9eM5f61nM/s200/DSC0815.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZyR3qbcQP2lnlFGHQvYMfINoMjZciA-DEuYYSoFjFY-9PNYcKJEbcVGjZRqaZTVkU5OnBz5Sob1I-4h8aeCpLPB-hxVRr7Phv8WTQFxMBp1Itm4CVPzNXzI-o-XYpSzV6mZJIbWU5TIw/s1600-h/DSC0809.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318053367909588322" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 134px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZyR3qbcQP2lnlFGHQvYMfINoMjZciA-DEuYYSoFjFY-9PNYcKJEbcVGjZRqaZTVkU5OnBz5Sob1I-4h8aeCpLPB-hxVRr7Phv8WTQFxMBp1Itm4CVPzNXzI-o-XYpSzV6mZJIbWU5TIw/s200/DSC0809.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKvjDmbyMXC0eDauw7pHYLRLhHbkTEFDHK5cCLajvCjfaJ0uSxj2I90tywHY8WqZjMOraW4W3d7IZZHpHxf0IcFUuORr5b-Ej0-PBumcFmoN11Tl56KeuieiS-GXylb2mM52eKWK-Dxr8/s1600-h/DSC0806.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318053357258935138" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 134px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKvjDmbyMXC0eDauw7pHYLRLhHbkTEFDHK5cCLajvCjfaJ0uSxj2I90tywHY8WqZjMOraW4W3d7IZZHpHxf0IcFUuORr5b-Ej0-PBumcFmoN11Tl56KeuieiS-GXylb2mM52eKWK-Dxr8/s200/DSC0806.jpg" border="0" /></a> <div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>We found a local track just down the highway from us called Harleyville Motocross. It is a fairly new track in the area and this was the first time we got to see the gates open and bikes on the track. I decided to try out our new 10.1 megapixel camera on some of the riders to see what kind of quality I could get with different settings. I think the pics turned out great and will only get better with more use of the camera. The camera has more settings than I know what to do with. I sent some of the pics to the operator of the track and hopefully he will use them for his web page. Maybe he will ask me to be the track photographer for races. Who knows?? </div></div></div>Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-86953113512303000262009-02-24T19:01:00.000-08:002009-02-24T19:20:25.667-08:00Altanta Supercross<div><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKU-LFY-yJaU510fyWcisL62jg5R2Kl4CdCAU7AfUcyJJCNGS9BK8Twm_eIgJMlf0vECOsBPTRufUTlHAy276JJhGWs9xqUktI9hdIoAL4BtNm-lfiYDQ4uWAA9pZ7yO20GOC_hWfUuV0/s1600-h/100_0117.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306568722496925426" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKU-LFY-yJaU510fyWcisL62jg5R2Kl4CdCAU7AfUcyJJCNGS9BK8Twm_eIgJMlf0vECOsBPTRufUTlHAy276JJhGWs9xqUktI9hdIoAL4BtNm-lfiYDQ4uWAA9pZ7yO20GOC_hWfUuV0/s200/100_0117.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc2ckSwzTW8KmJindgBikduqyqx2FYr1FIhzAt4w_HHAj5e6E6_TI_1F3EFl8umInazoTnh-HmTZ5gFSbe9gu5imjGH3_rURwlnu9fhuHcNtA0nq8UaF6HAfCCu72KiOFaMDwZ6bSnD60/s1600-h/100_0105.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306568721388996786" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc2ckSwzTW8KmJindgBikduqyqx2FYr1FIhzAt4w_HHAj5e6E6_TI_1F3EFl8umInazoTnh-HmTZ5gFSbe9gu5imjGH3_rURwlnu9fhuHcNtA0nq8UaF6HAfCCu72KiOFaMDwZ6bSnD60/s200/100_0105.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWSxvItsqyblqvtse2q2FF57CL7N49v2LnnHjYgXKqVLTCETZuZj1bBoEGAGTV5TLpG0d34428hvS9ihyphenhyphenYNCZENYhl0OLW5wxOA3y4dWvHNxVOVTlUuMRUCVl0nBLUAHDITRZyg1hpEKE/s1600-h/100_0092.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306568719047447202" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWSxvItsqyblqvtse2q2FF57CL7N49v2LnnHjYgXKqVLTCETZuZj1bBoEGAGTV5TLpG0d34428hvS9ihyphenhyphenYNCZENYhl0OLW5wxOA3y4dWvHNxVOVTlUuMRUCVl0nBLUAHDITRZyg1hpEKE/s200/100_0092.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3EwlFBhR2NpDUhUzK8dhaA8bQzhj2ahTNctuAnTz9wO2__dIw2XiBHnTiaPQF9iiXq5CkRl5eCbItvDORJMV62mfxpU9_0mp3bASLcMqP5UJzWgyPlOmL61-9_g291jihgX3u7LXdoKw/s1600-h/100_0205.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306568730178800802" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3EwlFBhR2NpDUhUzK8dhaA8bQzhj2ahTNctuAnTz9wO2__dIw2XiBHnTiaPQF9iiXq5CkRl5eCbItvDORJMV62mfxpU9_0mp3bASLcMqP5UJzWgyPlOmL61-9_g291jihgX3u7LXdoKw/s200/100_0205.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZhqKG6fKNsxAJENoNR69P3qqh_lYPx7Ihx_6ePnM93isjFv2QK7ESIu2vuFmEj15UhoE_xwSBYKUOy_yBsBEDjDdl_goA8oUOiw_jl8n7ShbV9Zl-eFgSsE6dJv48YERq2ffBew6mpDg/s1600-h/100_0178.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306568727186561042" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZhqKG6fKNsxAJENoNR69P3qqh_lYPx7Ihx_6ePnM93isjFv2QK7ESIu2vuFmEj15UhoE_xwSBYKUOy_yBsBEDjDdl_goA8oUOiw_jl8n7ShbV9Zl-eFgSsE6dJv48YERq2ffBew6mpDg/s200/100_0178.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Chan and I had a boys weekend together in ATL. We left friday mid day and hung out with Professional riders from the Yamaha team that night at a local motorcycle shop in Conyers GA. Chandler bought a Monster hat and got James Stewart's to sign it. Saturday we hung out all day in the pit party with all the teams and riders and watched the race live in the Georgia Dome that night. It was a long day, but well worth it. Chan was way pumped and took alot of pictures of the factory bikes/trucks and some of the riders. He tried to chug a Monster Energy drink like a rock star but came up short. All in all it was a great weekend together. Enjoy the pics </div></div></div></div></div>Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-33851851120337012202009-02-08T17:30:00.000-08:002009-02-08T17:46:12.722-08:00Welcome to High School Sports (A Year Early)Chandler makes 2 baseball teams in 1 week. We have a potential All Star on our hands. We are so proud of Chandler, he has been working so hard lately to stay on top of his game. He played in the fall ball league as soon as we got to Charleston SC. After the season was up he attended 2 hitting clinics and competed in a hitting league at Pro Level Sports. The big pay off was the news we recieved this past week which was: 1) He has been selected to play on the Pro Level Sports travel team and 2) A call from his future High School (Ashley Ridge) to play on their JV team. The High School coach was anxious to take a look Chan but told us not to get high hopes because the number of kids trying out were around 40. He made it through 2 cuts and is now a part of their active roster. The school is new for this year and we are looking for Chan's team to bring home the first JV trophey for the school. Way to go Chan "da man" !! <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300604128001925218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 221px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 178px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDh-hRU2O3WKdDtHaNaZfl16dF8h9dfvjliH4MlWos0Ki0gvKGGXtdU1k_ZSDocHM0ejfqwQbHfNAkj5nSjHpHsOY0kQpmQ5aRlH4iwETAs9iIc-BPutKm6Kg5-VMQEztN4Ofq4_focTs/s200/2fer+in+1+week.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div></div>Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-86666472448426335032008-11-21T12:32:00.000-08:002008-11-21T13:28:10.596-08:00Chan's new assault weapon<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq7WC8t7Su_hWhUCmiXeRn9nSTsLXcJoqh2A-Z5RZerESeLI0Zo5t4ESDdtOe-_MNaLN8LH3Z7rQ-wO2s7YIuplMXn_vihLAQtmYq6RX6_UWdujoUmXxB14VSPKREUMaslO7T78MdIjCU/s1600-h/105_0089.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271215785904206674" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq7WC8t7Su_hWhUCmiXeRn9nSTsLXcJoqh2A-Z5RZerESeLI0Zo5t4ESDdtOe-_MNaLN8LH3Z7rQ-wO2s7YIuplMXn_vihLAQtmYq6RX6_UWdujoUmXxB14VSPKREUMaslO7T78MdIjCU/s200/105_0089.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD5Xw3LPh5eEhL9Kf7dhoGwai2BX0lMxD00qNb3Vdoa8YwMx2QCb7QYEVPWT259Vgd5zIBDiqOBk6x5ON9YQbLGGCCV5xoRxRkXxH1jBAB8wO-4PyTP6aTPjgShBiAakN6_QvAb2vbOFU/s1600-h/105_0086.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271215780034679698" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD5Xw3LPh5eEhL9Kf7dhoGwai2BX0lMxD00qNb3Vdoa8YwMx2QCb7QYEVPWT259Vgd5zIBDiqOBk6x5ON9YQbLGGCCV5xoRxRkXxH1jBAB8wO-4PyTP6aTPjgShBiAakN6_QvAb2vbOFU/s200/105_0086.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQE8XJjGtT8rkowwp9C9pknr1ZPycB5PPwQwigxIg411QUIjSsyJWI60RKdtSUPvr1JIgi2yKRtqj3JIPKfqqdGTtuVEpKP0FpSnqRKhEtTDu2KTqf7R_nlPdJRMcMisPJP1I3gK7FBsg/s1600-h/105_0085.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271215769992748898" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQE8XJjGtT8rkowwp9C9pknr1ZPycB5PPwQwigxIg411QUIjSsyJWI60RKdtSUPvr1JIgi2yKRtqj3JIPKfqqdGTtuVEpKP0FpSnqRKhEtTDu2KTqf7R_nlPdJRMcMisPJP1I3gK7FBsg/s200/105_0085.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Check this thing out, I added a couple of pics and a video so you can see the quickness of this gun. Chan can put more paint down range faster than any gun I have ever seen. It is capable to shoot about 25 balls per second (BPS). It runs off of nitrogen and has multiple shoot modes. Chan is shooting in semi-auto mode here and empties his 3/4 full hopper of about 150 balls in 12 seconds. That is around 12 BPS in this mode and he is still new with the gun. It has a Halo electronic hopper on it that is capable of feeding 20+ balls per second. The total cost is that of a real hunting rifle, but this is what he wanted and he paid for the most of it.

Chan played left field the entire game and went 2 for 3 at the plate. The action was very quiet in the outfield as winds gusted towards home plate around 25mph keeping the balls shallow. Another reason was we pitched our best pitcher and the other team couldn't hit off him. Chan struck out his first at bat going after balls over his head, his second at bat he was patient and earned a walk, and the third at bat he drove one up the middle for an RBI. (a real confident booster). I skipped school tonight to attend the game. After 6 rainouts already I didn't want to take the chance of missing this one, because weather is in the forcast for the rest of the week.

What can I say I am a very proud Daddy. I went solo with the kids this wekend to KC Missouri for Ryleas Cheer competition and we had a blast. OK, i fibbed a little, I wasn't totally by myself, I had help from my parents and my grandma that met me in KC. They were a huge help. (Thanks guys) The days are long watching all levels of competition and sometimes even having to fight off sleep a time or two. But when Ryleas squad called the Cougar compete, you can find me on the edge of my seat. Nothing can substitute watching my only daughter putting everything into her routine only to be awarded a first place trophy at the Nationals. She was such a trooper having to perform twice and even with a headache the second day. Here are some photos of our weekend in KC. enjoy..., </div><div> </div><div> Ry and Jen are off to Chicago this weekend for their last competition of the year while Chan and I stay in Nebraska for Chandler's Earlybird Baseball Tournament.</div><br />.Father and Sonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01133173724491925903noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453484392873079008.post-63332001161131263802008-03-22T21:38:00.000-07:002008-03-22T21:52:52.388-07:00Hitting the Long Ball<p>This is what makes me proud, I found this on my computer from a year and a half ago.

It was harder than he thought and he had to trade his first snowboard for a shorter one. But like his dad, it didn't take him long to hit the lift and head to the top. They had a big air competition while we were there (NO! Chan didn't enter), but we did get a good pic in front of their Mini Cooper.
