New lights

Hello!!  How's it going!?.....Is that so??.....hmmmm...That's interesting.  Lol.  Well I just thought i'd show ya'll what's new with my truck.  Not much really.  I'm not working right now which means I have no money which means I can't really do much to my truck,but with the little money I do have I did do a little something to it.  Take a look at the truck in this picture.

Now what looks bad in this pic??  What looks like junk and is falling apart.  Pay close attention to the front.  Lol.  See anything??  I do.  Haha!  If you don't see anything,then look at this next pic and try to find the difference.  Lol.  If you do see what I'm talking about,then you know what to look for. 

This isn't a very good angle.  Here's a better one.

    See it yet?  Well if you don't I'll tell you.  The old foglights underneath were old,broken,and just lame.  So I bought some new ones and installed em.  The old ones were prolly around 50 watts,and yellow.  Just all out yucky.  lol!  These new ones are 430 watts each,and they're SUPER bright!  They're just for off-roading though,because they're illeagle to use on the street.  Here's another pic.

I had to wire intall them and wire them up myself.  Here's where the switch is.

    It's my first time putting anything like this in a vehicle so it might look a little "amature-ish".  Lol!  I like it though!  :)  I'm prolly going to get 2 more for the back.  Then in the future once I start working and getting money,and after i fix all the neccesary stuff...I'm going to put in the rollbar and lights on it,and bumper with lights on it...and all that good stuff!  Haha!!  Anyways...I just thought I'd start giving you all the update on my truck every now and then.  So it can be like the weekly newsletter or something.  idk.  Lol.  Well I hope this few minutes of your time was worth it and entertaining enough.  Lol!  Tune in next time to see what Karl does to his truck next!!  :)  Well adios for now all ya'll!  Haha!  Bye!

My friends

Hey everyone!!  Just thought i'd introduce you to some friends of mine.  These Saints are part of the reason I hardly found time to blog for a while.  In a good way that is!  I've just been spending as much time as I can with some of the family of God!!  :) 

    Well first off we have my good friend Brother brett!!  He is a fellow much like myself.  We are both good ol country boys who like to do just about any sportsman thing you can think of.  We are both desciples of Ford and are obsessed with Rangers.  Lol!  Brett is a great hunting buddy,even if he can't say "turkey" right.  hahaha!!!  Turkeeee.  Hahaha!!  :))  For those of you who have know idea what I'm talking about....you won't unless you hear him say it.  Lol.  And now folks....drumroll please....It is my pleasure to introduce to ya'll..BROTHAMAN BRETT!!  Give it up everyone!!

Okay...ummm...this is what he likes to do with his free time.

haha!  jk.  Here's he and I at the beach.

Well that's Brett everyone.  Some say he looks kind of like Larry the cucumber.  Hahahaa!!!  :P  Well Next in line is....hmmmmm...I know!!  Ahem...Now ladies and gentlemen,please welcome....MR Lamborgini himself!!  CONNOR!!! 

Now I know he's not much to look at,but there's a lot more then looks right!!  hahaha!!!  Jk Jk Jk!!  Well this young man is an exotic car information koisk with feet.  He can just hear an engine and tell you exactly what kind of car it came from.  He wants to be a Lamborgini when he grows up.  Wait....maybe he just wants to buy one now. Who knows!??  He even makes car noises in his sleep,and he's 14!  Lol!!  Unlike myself he does NOT like Fords.  I don't even know why i put him on this blog.  Again I'm just kidding!!  :)  Connor has a need for speed folks!!  That pretty much says it all right there!!  Lol!!  Moving on....

    Now we have some of the little girls.  Now I don't say "little" to belittle or offend them at all.  Simply that they are "littler" then some of us.  Lol.  Younger that's it.  :)  They are the little sisters of us older kids.  There is Alexis and Gracey,Eva,Katey,Perscilla,Connor...no wait!!  Jk.  Not Connor.  Lol.  Then there's Krista and Sarah,and many more.  Unfortunatly I only have pics some,which would be in the slideshow above.  And those are just some of them.  Who's next??

    Well we have Shane the piano man.  Shane is the schooling type.  In his words.."Rather than being out 4wheeling and quad riding with all the other boys,I would rather be in my room studying economics.".  So some might call him weird,but others would say special.  lol!  I'm just kidding.  Shane is a great friend of mine and an awesome dude.  :)  He has a very special musical talent.  He can play the piano like no one I've ever seen or heard!  He's been playing for some years and he is a piano and organ player for the church.  He is VERY good!  he can make that piano praise God!!  I don't have many pics of him,but here's one.

And here folks we have the extremaly rare Shane at the watering hole.  Be very quite or we might spook him.  Lol!!!

You see Shane is the quite and shy type who doesn't talk much in public and to get a picture of him is HARD!!  So this picture could prolly sell on ebay for lots of money.  haha!  :P 

    Next we have Chelsea and Felicia.  Now i don't know much about either of them,but they are great friends.  Chelsea has major skill at the fooseball table.  I think it runs in their family.  Lol.  I'm not sure if I've beaten her or not.  I don't want to say that I have because if I haven't and I say I have,then she might read this and there might be a challenge in my hands.  haha!!  :)  Chelsea is the older sister of Connor and Felecia is the older sister of Shane.

Chelsea on the left,Felecia on the right. 

Now here's a pretty random group of people.  There's Anthony,perscilla,Amanda,and Krista.  Then if you look to the very far left,that smiley face poking in the picture,that's Katrina which I will introduce next.  ;) 

Haha!!  :)  Now you see that weird looking kid in the top left corner??  That is Michael.  Don't ask why he's making that weird face...I don't know.  lol.  On the tailgate going from left to right,it's Anthony,then Perscilla...why they are holdng hands is another thing I do not know!  Lol!  Then it's Amanda,then Krista.  Huuuhhhh...it seems like they're all making weird faces.  lol!!  Well I think it's a nice little group of people.  lol!  :)

    Now it is my pleasure to introduce to you,my VERY dear friend...Katrina!!

This is katrina like 10 years ago.  lol!!  Here's the present katrina.  ;)

That's Katrina like within this month i think.  lol!

Katrina is a very sweet young lady and a very gooooood friend!  She is a a great incouragement to me.  She LOVES kids and has a job working with them a lot!  She goes to school everyweekday and then from school goes to work and then from work goes home for homework and somehow manages to make it in to church every Sunday,Tuesday,and Thursday!!  A very responsible girl!!  She helps out with a lot of the planning for the young peoples parties we have along with a couple others I think.  She's an excellent volleyball teammate and likes to make little noises whenever the ball comes to her.  lol!

Katrina on the right,her sister haley on the left.  Now you can't see the net because the camera is at the perfect angle it just like disappears.  haha!  jk.

Well folks there she is.  Katrinaaaaaa!!  8D  lol!  I could say much more about her,but I'll save it for later.  :)  Now we have Mr Craig!  Craig is another good friend of mine who could easily be mistaken for goliath when gets older.  Lol!  Here he is guys!

    Yeah there's both of us with our bad haircuts.  Lol!!  Well Mine anyways.  Craigs is a little better.  :)  This is at my graduation.  Lol.  Thus the bowtie and tuxedo style shirt.  Craig is Call of duty wizard!  He has two xbox 360s and he and his brother have a TON of games.  If you ever play Call Of Duty with him...WATCH OUT!  He's deadly!  He's only 15 and he's already taller stronger than me!  i used to be the armwrestling champion.  I don't think he liked that though,because now he beats me everytime.  lol!  I'm not suprised!  Look at him!  Craig is an awesome member of Church of God Paintball League.  An awesome dude all around.

    Well there's many more that i will show you all later.  Matt,Arron,Amber,Amanda,Rebecka,Tyler and many many more!  Buuuuuut since my fingers are geting cramped from typing soo much,I think i'll save them for later.  haha!  :))  Well alrighty then!!  Catchayall later!!

Peace out!

I'm back!!!!!

Hello everyone!!  Sorry I've been gone soo long!!  My life has just been sooo exciting I haven't took the time tell everyone I guess!!  :)  Well where should I start!!??  Lol.  Well first off I'm now 17 and graduated from highschool.  So you'd think I'd have had more time to blog.  I've been too lazy to do it i guess.  SORRY!!  :(  So yeah I'm done with school for now.  I'm not sure if I'll get to take any college classes in the future,but I might.  Right now I'm working with my dad still,and we are DONE with Jawhaw!!  Yay!!!  That's a long ugly story so I won't go into it.  Now we're Ranger construction.  Our website is Ranger-construction.org I believe.  If you'd like to check it out.  Not very big or anything,but it's a start.

    What else??  hmmmmm...Oh!  I got my truck!!  Finaly!!  I bought it a few months ago I think it was.  It's a 1987 Ford Ranger STX!  Yes sir!  :)  4wheeldrive ofcoarse!!  I still can't get my liscense till I'm 18,but that leaves me time to work on it.  loL!!  Snow wheelin season is coming up too.  I can drive offroad without a liscense.  So that's GOOD!  lol.  Can't wait to take it out!  Here's some pics.

It's a 5 speed stick shift.  So I need some practice.  hahah!!  I'm working on the interior so it looks a lil junky right now.  It was running really bad when I bought,so we drove it home and took a look under the hood.  The previous owners had the spark plug wires all backwards!!  For those of you who don't know much about engines...like me...the spark plug wires have to be in the right places so that the firing order is right.  or it will run horribly!  Well the wires are numbered one through six,and they were all backwards!!  haha!!  We quickly fixed that and now it runs great!!  LoL!!  I went to Autozone bought all new plugs and wires,a new oil filter,new oil so I could change it,and a new air filter.  A pretty good tune up.  Now I'm saving up money for a new exhaust because the old his old rusty and has holes.  Pretty soon it will like new!  Yes sir!!  :)

    Lol.  What else....ummmm...Well there's a TON I could say,but I think I'll save it for more entries.  :)  One thing I wanna say before I end this page.  God has blessed me soooo much recently!!  This past year has been the best one of my life!!!  I wouldn't trade my salvation or sanctification for ANYTHING!!  This life is better than the best!!  I am soooo very happy!!!  PRAISE GOD!!  Amen!  Adios!!
