[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3926997, member: 15054"] I worked at FAA for FKW at the time which was a contractor out there and lived in Spencer. 5 years of that drive and I would take the pager on weekends for fix it calls and many times i would work 2 and 3 shifts. Feed me and I can stay awake and work for ever back then. Wife went to the Spencer public schools and talked with the teachers and staff to see what kind of place it would be for our 5 year old. No ac in many rooms and the teachers did not even want to talk with her just cold shouldered her. F them. So she used her dads address and drove them to Yukon. We ended up buying a house in the same neighborhood as her dad just 1 street over. Of course some weekends when I did not have the pager I would hit the lock 16 in **** and drift the river for catfish. She had driven 67,000 miles in 11 months and I quit counting as I knew she had me beat on miles driven. I drove a 78 Nova mostly and she had a Ford escort. Sometimes she drove the Nova to crest just looking to get into a race with someone. Other cars we drove but not as much maybe 12-15K a year 1977 Indy pace. Look that one up. Not stock. 1981 280ZX with Not stock 240Z engine. 1978 Skylark 2 door. stock. 1980 Pinto. Not stock. 1982 Mustang not stock. 78 ford 3/4 ton Not stock. 1987 V45 Honda super Magna. Stock 1985 V65 Honda Magna Not stock. The V65 ran 11.51 in the 1/4 with my 200lb butt on it. My Nova would out run it. Fun times. Looks like I tweaked most of my vehicles. I am glad I thinned the herd a little bit . All that auto insurance is a killer. [/QUOTE]
