  1. I have a friend in Thomasville, He runs Ricco Fastners on Highway 84 (Smith Ave) on the East side of Thomasville, that is a nice little town that is growing fast. You also have to watch out for the farmers coming out of the fields on their tractor, they will pull right out in front of you at 5 mph.
  2. People need to understand that children with special needs don't have an illness; so, there is no cure and it's not contagious. They only want what we all want, to be accepted. Most of you probably won't copy and paste this. Will you do it and leave it on your status for at least...an hour? It's Special Education week..

  3. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, we had the memorial service today and for a young man that said he did not have many friends the chapel at Strickland funeral home in Pooler was full today, proof that he was well thought of, it really made us feel good that so many people thought that much of him to take Saturday afternoon to go to a memorial service. Although we were sad at the loss of this life we know he was a good person and it was proven today. Jonathan I have no idea if you could see or not, I certainly hope you could see the tribute to your life here.
  4. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
  5. I call him my grandson, he is my son-in-laws son from a previous marriage, we are still not sure what happened but he died last night about 6:30 PM yesterday, 3 witnesses say hit and run, police can not make up their mind. His Busa had a flat tire when he came out to go to work in the AM so he was riding his fathers motorcycle, he had gone to work, went to girl friends house and was on the way home on I-95, the tracks indicate a sharp left turn from the left side of the center lane and then bike sliding to the center median, he slide straight down the center lane of the interstate. He was a really good person, everyone that has said anything about him has only had good things to say. I will refrain from stating what I think in regards to the hit and run, it is over and done, I just hope that someday if this is true the person that may have done this will get their just punishment. All you folks that ride bikes out there be careful as there are people that will hurt you and keep on running. R.I.P. Jonathan Holifield you were a great young man of only 22 years, you had a full life ahead of you but it is no more. God Bless and keep you forever.
  6. Welcome back, glad to see you back on here.
  7. I missed it, lost my dog yesterday and after I buried her I did not think about it, was home in plenty of time just mind elsewhere.
  8. I had wondered what was going on, I did not think you would take it down in the middle of the day for maintenance, glad it is back up and thanks for all your hard work. Hope your day at the beach was good, you deserve it.
  9. That is a nice looking trailer. He will have to stop in SE Ga first.
  10. WOT (Web Of Trust) safe browsing tool, gives ioffer.com a good rating, seems to be another ebay type place. I have no experience with ioffer.
  11. x2 I buy it at Home Depot by the Gallon - it's relatively inexpensive along with a spray bottle. I use it fully concentrated and I spray it over the entire deck, cushions etc. IMO it works better at cleaning stains on the deck and with less effort then Starbrite. Home Depot is where I got mine, spray bottle and a gallon of concentrate.
  12. Is there any place in your area that can test what you have to see if it is good or not, just in case you can salvage it.
  13. Most any bought on land is at least E10, don't know about Costco but Murphy here sells E10. There is a label on the pump that states the fuel may contain at least 10% alcohol.
  14. Just a thought, do you have straight gasoline or the E stuff, if it is the E then the alcohol would have absorbed a lot of water to make it useless anyway wouldn't it.
  15. Sounds like you have something to work with, I would consider rebuild myself. With mine I had replaced the tongue with a new square tube but when the axle broke I found a used aluminum trailer in good shape for less that and axle would have cost.
  16. Simple Green, I had a mold/mildew and leaf stain problem, tried this and it worked, wet, sprayed concentrate on the bad areas, put some in my boat wash bucket with the boat soap, it took all of it out. It did take several applications on several areas but it did work. I used plain Simple Green, I see there is a Marine version of it also, no idea what the difference is other than price, the word marine raises the price automatically.
  17. Just be sure and check the frame rails, the tongue, the axle and springs for rust as well. I say this because of a steel trailer I had, first the tongue broke, square tube rusted from the inside, the the axle broke right at the spring ubolts, that is where I bought used trailer.
  18. That is bad, sorry to hear that. I still have my wife but she has no job, hers went away just before Christmas and went thru a divorce once so I kinda understand how you feel right now. Keep your chin up and I will be hoping that good things come your way.
