Good Red Friday to you Mikel and to all of RallyPoint! I have a favorite quote from Leo Tolstoy “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” Transformation has to come from inside ourselves.

Everyone have a great weekend!

I love that quote. It's the hardest thing we do--change ourselves.

Good "Red Friday" Morning COL......You are definitely beginning to scare me a little ! "Transformation Day" I was just talking with my Brother and the Bill who is working on the boat with me about the direction Vintage Restorations should take YESTERDAY! and Bam, here is the quote for today!
You definitely come the closest with your quote to the last few days around here:
Get ready to transform your ideas and dreams in to reality or transform yourself into the person you want to become, Why Not? ― COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
Without going into great detail, we should be shipping Nationally by the end of next season....Parts is Parts! Boat and Auto. More Auto Resto's in the mix....It is what the market is telling me.
That little guy is cute, looking for food! What can I say, keep having a blast Brother..Please say good morning to Bella from us. Ride Safe.

I transformed my ideas and hopes into reality 42 yrs ago when I joined the military, and then 38 yrs ago when I married my lovely bride, everything I wanted to do was made realistic, just need to step out of the comfort zone and go for it. Have a great day COL Burroughs.

SGT David A. 'Cowboy' Groth , was thinking the same thing that my biggest transformation in life was when I joined the military. My next bigger one I believe was serving in War; you will definitely come home a different person; it opens your eyes to what’s really important in Life, and that is Life itself as it is irreplaceable and should be lived and cherished until the end.
