I've been a Stovebolter since 1997 (had to reregister in 2001 due to a computer problem)
Over the years I have visited, and been visited, many Bolters and with the help of a friend started the Southern Bolters around 2007. One thing is for sure. Stovebolters are the best from all walks of life.
....haven't been around much of late due to medical problems but I'm always close by. Also think of all the ones that are now in the "passing lane" that helped make Stovebolt what it is.
....A big thanks to TUT now for trying to keep us Southern Boys in line.
.....see ya'll Saturday at the Trucks at the Farm. Time to take Blue Thunder (the 37) and blow the cop webs out of it.
See ya later. Thanks again, Achipmunk. | | |
