Work never seems to slow down for long. The Triple EEE Project is getting work done I don't have the skills for.In Vegas that means you generally wait awhile because it's not a priority to most places even though you are a paying customer. I picked up this beauty of a German Shepard.Her. And is Bella (short for Bellatrix). Smart as a whip and at 10 months is the first dog I don't need to walk on a leash with. She will stay just ahead of me or to my side. Comes when you call her and is always ready to go.
I bought his 05 CRF 150. It is an all original bike with less than 5 hours riding time. I'm terrible on a dirt bike but I'm going to use it as a trail bike. Took it up to Logandale last week and it is great for just following my daughter around and the occasional "I think I'm 18 again" short rides. Picked it up
For 800$.
My old Ford spit a spark plug. Everybody said to get rid of it then. Will admit I got lazy and didn't change them as recommended. I traded it in and picked up a 2015 F150 4x4. Love the truck, the 4 door gives the kid and dog tons of room in the back. Should of done this years ago. My pilot pipe has fracked mounts so I pulled it and will get it fixed and probably take the Pilot to Logandale and hopefully get a dune trip in around Memorail Day.
Hope everyone is doing well, ride hard and be safe.

Your dog is absolutely beautiful! Have you ever had a GSD before? If not, you are in for a wild time. You will soon understand why they are considered one of the smartest dog breeds there is. I have had a long succession of them, I wouldn't own any other breed. By 4 months I have had my puppies following advanced commands. GSDs can be shown something once and they have the propensity to follow.

Now if you've had one before..I'm preaching to the choir.. BTW, nice bike and nice truck!

A few updated pictures. Got most of the front end sorted out. Had to swap out front calipers as one of the pistons on the left side just kept sticking. Battery and battery cables as well. Will be sending the hood out to get the fiberglass repaired and painted. Slowly coming along.

File comment: Picked up a battery and all the cables. If you don’t make your own Battery Cables USA does great work. Pricing and shipping is more than fair. Just about anysetup/length/style you want they can make.

Whoa :shock: what a beautiful buggy! It looks mint, job well done. I would love to own one of these one day, I have never even seen one for sale on the east coast.

Thank you, I have to pull the trans back out to have a couple parts made to help it stop leaking. I also recommend the Mikuni fuel pumps. The old one quit working and when I installed the new one it had fuel pulled up to the carb and running in about 8-10 seconds. Here is a short video of the start
Up after the pump was installed.https://youtu.be/PX9q3jH2cCI

And another. https://youtu.be/VKBtoL5IFJg

Timid ???
My Possy used to consist of 2 rotweilers ,a couple bull dog mixes and a female Shepard (Abbey,short for Abigail ) (pound rescue,was about to be put down and my girlfriend adopted it immedietly,)
She was the most loving dog,so affectionate and smart as they come.
One day a cat had kittens and we didn't know until Abbey came up with one gently in her mouth and started cleaning it. Abby had no interest in being top dog,she stayed out of the politics of pack life.
She was by no means soft. I never saw one hint of agreesion but a few things to note.
When my Possy would go hunting they would come home slashed up from wild boars and on one occasion a panther.
All of Abbys damage was on her head neck and shoulders. The bad ass dogs always had wounds on there rear sections.those were very expensive vet bills. My female Rott looked like a porcupine with all the drains coming out of her wounds.

Guess u can figure out who fought and who ran.

A boar gouge looks like a high powered riffle exit wound to give u an idea of the damage they would take.
Abby liked to kill armadillos and lick the shells while watching the other dogs out the corner of her eyes. She would do this for hours and the other dogs sat around watching and some times make a gesture like they were gonna make a move and she wouldn't flinch and they never made any attempt to take her prize.
Besides bringing up fond memories I hade a point,,,,,
The guy screaming and shouting he's gonna kill me don't phase me.
It's the guy who just smiles and nods that I got my eye on.

She is a beautiful dog and I hope u guys spend many years sharing life.

I just have to add I had a pet racoon (Foxy Roxy The Racoon) and she would come with me and my Possy walking through the woods,was a sight to be seen. She would hop along behind them almost looked like she was chasing them. Not one of my dogs ever gave her a second thought.
Just had to throw that in.

She (Bella) is a very reserved dog. One more inclined to watch what is happening and then get involved when the time is right or to her advantage. Her sister Athena is the exact opposite. They are great dogs, take every ouce of grief a 13 year old girl gives them and will run themselves ragged keeping up with her then sleep at her side. Bella is as big as her brother at 80lbs and Athena is 70 lbs. I’ve had dogs run up on them while walking and when they see the both of them ready to hold their ground and not run away they just change direction. Here a couple more recent pics of them.

File comment: Bella in the background Athena in the foreground. Bella is short for Bellatrix. The witch from the Harry Potter series. She can be a witch at times and has the size to back it up.

Too. Funny Abigail was named after the first witch burned in Salem.
They are beautiful dogs. You can see there personality all over them.

Well I absolutely love that buggie (that thing is absolutely amazing!) I would have a difficult time getting that thing dirty! The pictures of your dogs caught my eye. Look like awesome dogs, and I'm a sucker for any large breed dogs!

I hope you don't mind but I had to post a couple of pictures of my dogs here. I lost one (Bull Mastiff - Penrod), and then the other 9 days later (Lab-Shepherd - Yogi). To say her and I were both heartbroken (still are) would be an understatement. I'm sorry to hi-jack your thread but needed to post a few pictures of my old friends tonight and just write a couple of words about them - miss them like crazy! I'd trade all my BS toys in to have them both back here with us! Sorry to be a bummer, hope no one minds.

No worries, those are great pictures. My last dogs passes away in 04 and that was tough for me. Went 13 years until I got these 2. Always by my side and keeping me busy.
