Oh nice! I like the Yellow Rose Mitchell. I need to get 2 of them - o e in North African Campaign sand color and The Yellow Rose.

Did they have the red, white, blue Commemorative Viper there?

Oh yeah! Too hard to get pics of it flying with my phone. When it did it's first high speed pass, it gave my goosebumps. So damn awesome! I found a perfect place to stand near show center with no one near me.

That's cool. I don't have any subs in the stash and have never built any. I would like to though. I had to take my dog to the vet for poisoning as he ate a poisoned rodent and now $1100 later I don't have any money for more kits. Welp... :headbang:

Sorry to hear about the pooch. Hope he fully recovers. They say the most common thing an owner says to his dog is "What are you eating???" :headbang:
Thanks,

Yup... dogs get into stuff they shouldn't get into. They're too stupid. LOL!

My dog I had as a boy did himself in when he got to the Turkey carcass in the trash. He was already 11 or so with some health issues but ya... will eat anything!

I haven’t done a sub kit since the 70s the classic USS Nautilus SSN-571.

Funny… I notice my stupid dog in the yard laying down chewing on something. Went out and called him in. Found he was chewing on some scrap rawhide piece some stupid old neighbor must’ve toss over in our yard. I have an idea who but will have to catch him in act before going ballistic on him.

Rawhide bones are a huge red flag for they’re not good for them. Can cause intestinal blockage.

A few years ago, somebody was feeding my dog treats from my yard. My dog got sick for awhile from it. I had a suspicious idea who it was cause he was always carrying a pouch with dog treats and feeding them to other neighborhood dogs. One day on a Sunday morning, I had seen my dog disappear behind the shed and sure enough, this idiot was greeting my dog. I immediately ran out and called in my dog, he bolted as if nothing happened and walked away.

I jumped in my car and caught up to him by the school next door and confronted him. Asked him if he was by my fence with my dog. He admitted he was and told me he was a nice dog. I noticed a bulge under his jacket and inquired what’s in there. I also told him to stay away from my dog and my property. Next time I find him there I will report him. I also told him to stop feeding my dog his treats because my dog has sensitive stomach and is prone to get sick on cheap dog treats like Milk Bones. Needless to say, I got the message across him hard and he never came by ever again. He knew I meant business.

I do hope the pooch recovers! They pick friends the same way they way they pick things to eat, lucky for us humans.
