    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    That's awesome!! Are you in Heber?? Treasure the time with your boy. I would miss the truck if I ever had to get rid of it, but not near as much as I would miss the memories I made with my son over these past few years if I had never done this project. Take lots of pics, dream about the end...
