Butch 194 #1 Posted March 21, 2011 Plugged in the GPS today and programmed Rays address in and away my wife and I went. 3 1/2 hours later it finally said "Arriving at destination on right". Hmm figured Ray and Linda would hear the truck and come out. I don't see his truck or where he would keep his tractors. Hmm? No signs of them anywhere. Asked some people who were taking a break from raking leaves where the Bakers lived. "Never heard of them" came the reply. That's odd. To make a long story short I wasn't anywhere close mileage wise to Linda's and Rays. The Dukester, who made them WH business cards, put a wrong address on the cards when he made them and gave me one. Ray and Linda were miles away in another town. Mean while I'm ready to chuck the GPS out the window. My wife was upset because I didn't charge my cellphone. Why would I charge it? Heck I got GPS and Rays address. I don't need no stinkin cell phone. Well we finally hooked up and had a great time. Dukes ears should be on fire though!!

stevasaurus 23,274 #7 Posted March 21, 2011 I was thinking...Butch, did you get that card the day after Michigan lost to Appalachian St. That was a real bad day for the Dukester. He may have had the devil in him. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #8 Posted March 22, 2011 Steve, it was either that or the loss to Univer. of Toledo. I am sure that game was also hard to swallow. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He may have had the devil in him. I'll be rootin against Michigan all next season after that fiasco. I was surprised how heavy that plow was also. On the way to Rays we passed one of those huge Cabela stores so we stopped in there on the way home. Pretty amazing place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HorseFixer 2,013 #12 Posted March 23, 2011 Well last year I was makin some Wheel Horse buisness cards up and I thought well maybe Ill surprise Ray and make him some up also. I went to yellowbook .com and typed in his Name, State, Town and up it came up 71 Back Street which is what I put on the Cards according to Ray the address was wrong So much for trusting the Phone book I just looked it up again and it is still wrong as is the google Maps <_< as it has a 71 back street listed Well So much for trying to hook a Buddy up! My heart was in the right place So I thought. :wh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butch 194 #13 Posted March 23, 2011 Yep it was comical. We all had a great laugh over it especially when Ray and Linda tried to figure out where I got there address. Ray said he didn't give it to me. Linda said she didn't give it to me. Here I was driving all the way there and they didn't know where I got their address!! We did laugh about it! At least I was in the right state! :wh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
