    I love you guys, you're family, but when you're fucking homeless, the last thing on your mind is wheels lol....

    I'll hold out until somebody in a warmer climate throws out an offer lol.... I'm fortunate in the fact that I work at a firehouse, and any time any of the guys have went through this, they're always welcome at the station. I've been no different. I've lived at the firehouse. Couldn't imagine having any other job, and where I'd be right now without my job. I've looked at quite a few places to lease, and shops, but I'm not jumping at the first one, ultimately I'd like to find a house with a shop behind it lol. The search continues. And yes as far as the truck goes, I bought it right
     
  12. The decisions God makes for us are not always readily understood, but down the road they will become clear!
    I rented a shop 14 miles from home for 20+ years ('83-04). In '03 I got divorced from #2 & told myself I needed to sell the house in the suburbs & find a place out in the country with a shop on the same property as I lived....Best thing I ever did! The 6 months paying two house payments, insurance, etc until the other house sold was rough, but looking back I wouldn't change a thing!

    You will find a place just like I did, keep positive & keep looking, you will be led to it! If you don't keep the pickup, I'll make ya a good deal on my 57 Pontiac with the speedway straight axle & disc brakes I was going to build. You could stick your big block in that!:D

    I am always just a call or text away, don't be afraid to call anytime!

    God Bless
    Bill

    If this year was any type of indication, I can't wait until Lloyd fest #2! :cool: Too soon?
    I find a little lightness in the dark helps you keep your bearings. Keep the faith brother.

  17. The question is will there be a Lloydfest 2024? I know it's early and your dealing with a lotta crap in your personal life.

    The first one is in the book but will you have to start from scratch and find a new venue? HRP

    I regretted missing this years party! It's quite a commitment from this corner of the country but I really would like to.

    Atta boy!

    This thread has been as frustrating as an atheist stopped behind a car at a green light with a "honk if you love Jesus" bumper sticker on it. o_O:cool:

    I always say "when the shit hits the fan - the strong give up and leave, the week give up and stay!" Glad to see your moving on.
