LOL secret skides huh

I am fortunate, Heather is on the other side of the coin. She always wants to know what I want to do next. I told her I was buying a new tube bender to get started on the bumpers, all she said was "cool"

YaHHHHOOOOO!!!!!

Thanks Stan! This will work out perfect!! I can have the skids on before the wife knows about it!! Ooops! Now to keep the kids quiet about it Saturday. Drats foiled again!

I would have made it if it weren't for those meddling kids and their dog!

Makayla said that she would help run interference, so you can get them on.

Jesse and Shannon are cool. It's Anna the 6 yr old that tells mama everything!

Just kidding Jamie (wife) is cool about it.

However, I did buy a 23' sail boat and tried to hide it from her at Wind Creek for a while. All was going so well, until the 3 month slip rental came due in the mail.

I really did not think she bought the excuse "Yeah, honey, a boat company does let you test it out for three months before purchasing it."

It reminded me of the episode of the show "Coach" where he had bought a motorcyle and was hiding it under the porch. He and Dauber would sit on their bikes as they laid under the house.
