west coast shopping spree

[PLUMBER RICK]

well the west coast team got together for a morning of eating and shopping.

adam and i met for breakfast prior to meeting robert/westcoast plumber, and my buddy steve for a morning at the swap meet.

robert got away cheap as his 1 dollar admission was his big buy. i bought his breakfast burrito:D

i got away cheap too. 10 dollars only:eek: no problem as i made it up on the way home and got a new laptop. just 1 unlike greg/drain medics 3 on friday;)

adam was the big winner. a new roto hammer, 36'' ridgid wrench,pipe vise made for hitch, and some jack hammer bits.

steve did fine too as he found his marco drain gun.


the ice cream eating contest was no contest. i got off to a quick start and coasted to a cool finish.

and joey's gift was not found at the swap meet:D
at least not this week:outtahere:

rick.

[MrsSeatDown]

Nope. What kind of food do you like?

You are driving up to L.A. from San Diego right? It is about 2 hours drive on a good day-not too much traffic

[DuckButter]

Wow I didn't know long hair was popular in 1920.

Mark

[MrsSeatDown]

I didn't even know Duck was that old!

[mrs. westcoast]

Some people never get out of their 20's:D

[DuckButter]

I think both Joey and Robert already know this, but my new wife is ten years younger than me...comments like that are everyday life now.
Also, if I'm a model T...you just gotta be a horse n buggy...HA!

LOL-Surely you realize I predate even the horse. When I was a kid mankind was still at the bottom of the food chain. As a matter of fact long hair was all the rage back then as well.

Mark :eek:

[MrsSeatDown]

Duck, that is why my hubby likes you. . . you both robbed the cradle:eek: AT 12 years younger, he got the young part down. I am just not as dumb as he had hoped for:D

You east coasters should all come out here and play with us!

I don't fault Rick or Duck for marrying younger women I just think it was awful risky they both married smarter women.

And I'll see you when the trade show is out here in the summer.Last year it was in June.We had a good time considering it was the first time we met.We will take good care of you down here.

[DUNBAR]

This is the first forum I've ever belonged to that the members were able to get along with.....meet and do things together.

That is pretty impressive in my book. :thumbup2:

[MrsSeatDown]

Dunbar, to tell you the truth I was a little worried at first when my hubby was making plans to meet these strange boys from the internet. . . those kind of things usually don't end well.:o

[drtyhands]

WOW im jealous...i have to get out there one of these days..

Adam..thats a hell of a pipe wrench ya got there :lol:
Thanks Greg,Yeah I don't know if you are aware of it or not,but we have some pretty hard water in my area.It will come in handy replacing the filter screens in shower heads.

[MrsSeatDown]

Ok Adam. You made me go back and take a second look at the picture:clapping:

[westcoastplumber]

Yeah, I am glad we all can get along and hang out, we are all passionate about the trade and have most of the same things in common, and this is to promote the trade, promote the importance of the trade and to gain back the respect so many are trying to take away!!

Dyrty,

You let your free flag fly. I'm 44 and have long hair. These little sell-out weiners need to put on an image. Long live long hair.

[MrsSeatDown]

LOL. It must be an age thing. My oldest brother is 45, has a long ponytail and tattoos. . . except he runs an ER.

Dog, are you ready to come out and play with us? We don't bite and we aren't afraid of your bark:running-dog:

I'll see what I can do. The 2 biggest navy bases in the world on each coast. I might be able to catch a mac flight to San Diego.

[gear junkie]

Another thought, why don't we all take a trip to somewhere central like the Ridgid factory then go up to Cedar Point amusement park?

[Josh]

Sounds good to me ;)

[Aaron91]

I like the Ridgid Factory idea Ben.

[Drain Medic]
