Redneck Anniversary

If you goto a Tractor Pull for your anniversary..... well you know. Troy and Julie celebrated their 11th anniversary Saturday , but we just happened to be going to the Super Pull of the South in their home town , Chapel Hill Tn.

Here they are pictured in front of a tractor with my favorite engines , the Allison aircraft engine. To Cool.

These motors were used in WWII fighter planes and at one time they said that you could buy them from the military for about $250 bucks.

They were used in racing boats for a long time and then made there way into the pulling tractors. A lot of fun to watch a vintage 12 cylinder motor that has been around longer than I have. More to come.
Patsy is feeling much better and is mean as ever.

Julie looks a little miffed as if she would have rather spent their anniversary at the Chapel Hill Pizza/Video/Tanning Bed/Hardware store.

Good Luck with the no smoking Patsy! I'm sure the captain is going to support you by dropping the cancerettes himself, hmmm?
