The chev got stuck

Then the Ford got stuck and the chev unstuck when the dodge showed up but the dodge got stuck in the tractor rut that eventually pulled out the ford.

I've been listening to Corb Lund. Awesome musician from our backyard... kind of a rockabilly/bluegrass artist. His stuff ranges from setzeresque like the Big Bitch Butch Bull Fiddle, to very countryish, like that listed above. Excellent, lots of energy, tight wicked arrangements.

Anyway, back to the field tomorrow. Just for a day or two though, so not too bad. Also blowing up a big bomb... wheee!

Going somewhere as yet to be determined with Karen on Wednesday. That'll be awesome. I'm excited to see where she picks!

Excited for thanksgiving. Not going to vancouver island which is a bummer, but It gives me the weekend to hang out with family and to work on the second prototype of the Fox Longboard. This one'll be 5 ply, 1.25 inches thick. I'm hopin the extra wood and a bit of extra curve'll really stiffen it up. If this one turns out good I'll also do a first test of the artwork. That'll probably be come spring though. Chris is workin on it for me now, but it'll probably be pretty cold by the time I get the board ready for it. Course, there's always chinooks. I'm pumped to play on sunday too. I tell ya, missing a few weeks really brings back the passion to play at the Church. It's such a gift to have the ability and means to play, and I love getting to use it to lead the congregation.

Anyway, gotta be at work at 4 tomorrow, so it's bedtime for me!

Ah yes, Corb Lund. My favourite is "The Roughest Neck Around."

You know Corbie? Sweet! I'm torn, he's got so many good songs, I can't pick a fav... maybe 'Always keep and edge on your kinfe'?
