Been off the board for a week

[Chrisj CMA]

My Mother had brain surgery in Colorado so we drove up to see Mom and Dad.  We didnt take the Valkyrie, it was 3200 miles and we needed to be there as fast as possible.  2.5 days there 3 day visit and 2.5 days back.

Surgery went fantastic, all is well with Mom 

We stopped by the Duck Commander and I brought them a wooden M&M machine for the duck call room....look for it on the new season....LOL

So were back and all went well except one big bird committed suicide by flying into the front of my truck at 70 mph.  And there was a horrible dirt storm in north TX with blowing dirt and raining mud.  Had we been on the bike we would have had to stop for 2 days, it was not ridable

What's an "M&M machine"?

What's an "M&M machine"?

I make lots of them.  See the pic.  You put the M&Ms in the jar and when you pull the handle you get a hand full

Dude, I made one those dispensers in 8th grade wood shop.  We put gum balls in it.  Haven't thought about that in 37 years.

I'm sure your craftsmanship is better!

Glad your Mom is doing well.
