Your a smart man CP!

I'm a bit older than you and trust me you are doing the right thing. I spent time with my boys. Caught a lot of sh.. at work for going away as much as I did with my family. But those times are precious. F work ( I say that as I sit in my office working)

Yea things are backwards, you need a bigger house and more family time when your young and have children, instead of the other way around.

Muddiest I've ever seen it! Holy s***! Got sideways drifting into camp and took out storage box on the trailer. But we got in. When I say we don't cement camp I mean it

When did you develop that smart side?

That is definitely the toughest part of life.

Underway for first weekend back locally.
Just my daughter in my rig we're jamming out! Everyone else is there or shortly behind.

Nothing any more important than spending time with your children when they are young.......
well maybe except for embarrassing them!!!!

It' may not be good for us later in life though. We have very little and live day to day. I'm not sure how we'll do but I do know the kids had a good childhood. Not sure where the happy medium is.

My kids are all gone now and yes, I was that dumb parent that left work early and was at every practice and on every field trip and took trips with the family when we had to sleep in the rig and stopped at grocery stores to buy a loaf of bread to make sandwiches. My wife and I figure that we are only going to have to work until we're about 72 to be able to afford to retire but did I say that the kids have left home?

I don't regret one minute of the work that I missed to be with my kids at the times that they needed a little bit more attention.
(and maybe just a little bit of embarrassment of always having Mom and Dad around)

Besides the memories for my wife and I, the best thing is to watch our children doing the same and even more with our grandchildren.
Life is a big circle and truly, "what goes around.....comes around."

Tried to switch to used set control arms but threads bungled a bit.

That snow covered hill is our Big lookout it's a 30 mile ride from camp. This lookout is 1/8 mile from camp.

Huge hail but still great Mother's Day weekend!

 

[CumminsPusher]

Quad back up running is well worth it. Been people riding all weekend but it's a bit like pulling teeth. Pioneer is so much fun. Something about tunes heat no rain and lights makes adults and kids choose it.
Hey @Montecresto you were worried about being too close to town. Here's st.maries from the hill. Nothing but woods my friend.

I don't think that your rig will make a good wood splitter CP.

Those views are worth the price of admission!

Must have been fast with the shutter 'cause it certainly couldn't have lasted very long!
