  • Almost pulled a festyboy

    I was standing talking to my sister-in-law's boyfriend about my brake swap, wheels, tow hitch, etc. And not 10 feet from cream puff this tree split and a huge third of it fell. Luckily it fell between the houses. Didn't hit ANYthing!

    In this pic you see the tree past the festy it has peeled down. It is under the basketball goal to the right of the pic.

    It fell between the houses.

            Same thing happened to me a few years back, except the split tree was a huge oak and it fell on my bass boat. Ended up having to sell it for parts :'(.

            Can't stand fishing ever since.

                              Yeah, I know she is sitting a little crooked. We took off the front left wheel to install a new tire yesterday morning and set her down on a 6x6.
                              No festiva for me ATM...
