Well damn nice to finally hear from you again, Tim. We thought you short tipped a waitress in South Phoenix and were planted out in the middle of desert somewhere...

So, Let me picture this, Tim in Saudi as a field engineer working on military hardware? Hmmm?... Let me ask you - did they let you take your Sawzall and cutting tourch with you? The first thing that comes to mind, is a crap load of cut-off parts laying around the Saudi desert right now...

Well, good of you to check in Tim - be safe... See ya soon.

Come on man, you know I'm a fair kinda guy,,, I always give em what their worth,,, to me that is,, anyway, yeah I got bored,, believe it when someone says you'll get bored if ya retire and just sit around all day,, goin to the gym and wheeling every now and then just doesn't cut it. I'm goin back to the area I was at before for 10 years, same place, different company, different job, got a few different opportunities that were and still are presented to me over in that part of the world,,, but gonna stay outta the war zones, did those already, that's not good duty, no matter what the pay is,,, so I figured I'll work in the neighboring countries and find myself something to fill my day. It's a new program, with what looks like a long future ahead of it. Anyway will still be lurking around and watchin you all,,,,, you all try to keep it rubber side down and off the lid. Talk to ya'll later.

Good hearing from you Tim...how long are you planning on staying out there, and what did you do with your Jeep?

Well, that'll all depend on what goes on over in Saudi, sometimes these contract jobs are a really good deal and sometimes ya bite off on something ya wish ya would have passed up. It's a new project with new equipment so usually those initial contracts are for years then with a follow-up for the same amount of time as the initial contract. As far as the jeep, it's restin it's bones in storage. No problem, jeeps get better with age. Remember, I had a Toyota 4x4 truck that lived in storage for 10 years while I was in Saudi from 91-2001, all was good when I got it out.

East Side! Yesss.... I just wish the place was at Uncle Bears (Germann & Dobson) where they will allow you to reserve patio seating specifically for the Jeep clubs. Plus the big ass dirt parking lot where only 4wd vehicles can park makes for an easy Jeep lineup atop the dirt hill.

I agree with Skumbag...the parking situation at San Tan is a bit hectic, especially when it gets busy. The parking at Uncle Bears is perfect for us....
