i know there are some that dont care for me and the feeling is mutual as far as i know....lol

but here is my update:

i moved up to washington state right after i got the boot from the Marine corps for my leg. (for those that dont remember i was in a motorcycle accident that left me crippled for the most part, or so the Marine Corps thought.....

UPDATE on my condition.....i am back to about 80%...maybe more, i have gone skateboarding, just not to the level i was....

remember the Jetta?

i had to fix just about everything the previous owner did.....right after i got it i had to put another 3500 into it to fix his awesome work....how it sits now:

and the wheels for the jetta:

the motor is gonna be nice too:

i went through the entire motor and if it needed anything it got it....also deleted the P/S, and A/C......should be getting it back from paint real soon, so i have the rest of the fall/winter to get it back on the road. then comes the interior....that's still a secret

Glad to see you back, I don't like some people on here either, but we keep our boundaries, for the most part.

As far as the PNW, I love it up there, my Grandfather lives in Sequim, Soon as Erins done with school, we're jumping off this sinking ship and more than likely heading that way. Its green, everyone is much more mellow, housings cheaper and I hear the local economy is doing very well. How are the gun laws up there?

Yo, whats up Ed. Long time no talk. I don't think I even knew about your accident, sorry to hear but glad you're healing up well. I havent been on the forum too much in the past two years, but been trying to get back on every now and then. Again, glad you're healing up well bro.

Eric, Net....all im missing is Dan and Tracy....LOL

Lon it was only a select few people, they know who they are.

i have talked to one via pm and basically said i have nothing to say to him...and i plan on keeping it that way.

im only back to make sure my friends are okay, i might stick around, but if the shit talking starts back up i will leave again....

Hey Ed. Welcome to the North West. I am not quite in the PNW but close enough. Glad to see you're keeping busy with the VW's! I am impressed and jealous with the toys you have and it looks like a lot of fun. If you ever decide to take a trip come on over, you would like it here. Glad to see ya back on the boards.
