That's a bad mother fucker right there. You still have your plane in Parker? That was by far one of my best flights ever, yes including all of my lic time. That was fun man.

Yes I still have it. It's sitting in the hangar collecting dust. Just too busy to fly it as much as I would like. :(

I'm glad you had a good time, we should do it again.

One of the Cracker Box pilots decided to buy a new truck with his projected winnings from the Lucas Oil Pro series. ;)

I had seen that Jesus guy with the cross before on Rice Road a few years ago. I guess he's still doing it.

Love these pic's...grew up on horses...amazing animals. Lived in a small farm town in Indiana where you rode your horse to school, we had a bus but you could ride there if you wanted.

25 dollars a horse to break, that was huge money for a 12 year old kid.

Mom with my last horse and her's.....Masada was the best horse I have ever known. My mom's horse was the smaller sister of mine and the most Bad Ass endurance horse I have ever seen, she had a standing bet for a thousand dollars ridge to ridge, about 12 miles...no one ever came close.

Thanks again Wheeler. :thumbup:

Wheeler, would you happen to know the name of this trailer park? I was just going to check it out online, park model prices, rentals etc...

One of my River neighbors bought in there recently and is selling his place in Echo. What do you want to know? Same owners as Echo like mentioned. No store or bar but water front. All the patios are in line so you can look down and see what everyone else is doing.

I'd go with the Socata just for the fact that it's faster. :thumbsup

I'd tell the other two friends to find their own way to the river. :)


beech tbm
272 knots 320
Normal Range
226 knots 316

Lol it is faster by a lot. Just something about a twin engine beech that has always had my heart! When I was little my grandfather and his business partners had a c90 and later a b200 after that they did away with the turbo props

They just looked very nice & I was curious as to what those park models were selling for, that's all. I'm always browsing small condos/park models in Parker & Havasu, but what I've noticed is this: Yes, the prices of condos/park models are less than a house in town, however by the time you add 'space rent fees or HOA fees' you're better off expanding your price range & buying a house, because the monthly mortgage would actually be cheaper + aren't those space rent fees or HOA subject to increase? Idk, it's just that I'm always thinking of buying out there & it would be nice to have somewhere to go & get away from Orange County, a few times per/year, but I don't want to get myself in any debt, doing so. It's hard wanting these types of things, a boat, tow rig etc... on a single income.

This is what i get for $550 a month, comes with bed, shower and view from couch. If you waited until now to get something or lost a few like me, pretty steep to get anything deeded or even close to water.

Wheeler, I've looked at that condo many times, over the last week or so & that condo was what got me thinking about property. I know nothing about that complex or if $135k is a good buy, however after a google search the complex does look extremely clean & would be a cool little pad for a single person like myself, especially since 20% down on 135k is so affordable, although is does say OBO, so I sent him a pm last week, haven't heard back yet, I don't think he comes on RDP much, which is fine, no hurry with me, I was just curious about a few things. It does have an HOA though, so that's why I had asked about those park models etc....

I use to own the place across from sand piper with the Jacuzzi on the roof, people that lived in condo's, one guy in particular that owns a boat shop in parker use to get the neighbors all hot because he used dock and beach which was private to the homes there. Always hated the shit smell but have heard they fixed that issue. Seen them for sale recently for 70k which is a small unit but a good price when your a weekend guy and renting it out.

I almost always have a extra room and plenty of space on the boat. You can buy in Havasu for same monthly payment. But we are in a community, in Havasu I would be bored or launching solo. At Echo I rally a crew or jump on a neighbors boat. A lot of good looking Ladies in our crew. Let me know if you want to roll out sometime.

I have missed several trips already this year. Have to head to the dump shortly and dump a trailer so it can be loaded tomorrow. Let me know what days. Try and plan it. Just started a big job so I can schedule in some trips. Putting off jobs or I would miss summer a lot of work out there.

What's the story on the boat and trailer off the road over the embankment just above echo Lodge? We passes a guy standing on the highway with his dog and a chp . I couldn't see a truck . I wonder if it became unhooked and took a solo ride ? Hope everybody is ok

Lol....that band is terrible

Yesterday the band announced they were done and started breaking down their instruments and Fox's boss immediately appeared and told them to get back to work.
They had a hour left on this set and two hours more to go after that he reminded them.
"You just got off your 30 minute - 10 minute break BTW."
It would have been an excellent You Tube video.

I was sitting at the bar with the Skull Brothers. The Skull Brothers have run a marine construction business for over 40 years.
Insanely successful but the two cheapest guys I've ever known. Indescribably tight. So pathetically cheap they can't hold on to women and just can't figure out why.

They argue who's going to pay for two $3.25 beers, zero tip.
They will be the richest guys in the graveyard.
