Would you like to make a small detour and pick me up along the way? ...I'll split the gas with ya. :p :D :lol:

[pigeonfarmboy]

C'mon Joe. Don't you have some toy to buy this year? Koch park is going miss your visit hahah!

[Izzy]

Thinking of making the trip as well.

[Lil Giants]

Koch Park... was that how it was spelt Nathan? I had to think for a while what you were talking about :confused: I guess it had more meaning for you to remember it, have fun with it buddy. :D :lol:

The way the weather has gone on the last month... well, the whole summer for that matter, I'll likely still be combining mid Oct... shut down since last Wed with rain again... each day getting shorter, cooler... I'm about 2/3's done at this point. :(

[pigeonfarmboy]

Fire says no to St. Louis show. Lost almost everything I own that's rc. Excavator made it out relatively unscathed though. Just full of water now.... Still going through all the debris to pull out anything left. Think I saw the box for the Black Freddy Dump and the Blue Mack that Izzy built in ok shape. Trailers are dust, tri-axle is completely done. Still don't know the cause of the fire. I was fortunately out of town when it happened. If I was home, I'd be in the burn unit at the hospital.

Wow that's terrible! I guess the main thing is that no life was lost but man that sucks!

[ihbuilder]

that totally sucks Nate :(

[woodhog]

Thats terrible I know you have suffered a major loss:eek: Like Reg said no loss of life is good. Hope insurance pays . I know the time put in to the models will never be replaced. If ya need a place to stay you could come to Tenn and move in with me and my hoodlums:D

[doodlebug]

Sorry to hear about your loss!
Neil.

[Finster]

Wow, sorry to hear about the fire, just glad nobody was hurt.

[FabOne]

Nate-

Hang in there big guy! I'm just glad you're OK.

Terry

[Tamiya Cowboy]

HOLY S^%T That's one of my worst fears Nate been down that road once but not this bad I feel for you man glad you are and you family are ok..

[Lil Giants]

DAYUM!!! :eek:

That was the coolest man-cave I have ever seen... I bet it'll be 10x better yet after the rebuild.

I hope you had taken lots of pictures of everything in there? ...a big help with insurance

...that reminds me, I had better re-inventory my own collection.

Wishing you & the missus a painless recovery from this unfortunate event. :)

[fhhhstix]

That totally sucks Nate and I am really sort to hear about this. I know you lost a lot not only in belongings but a lot of hard work that went into them as we'll.

Travis

[Dieselchopper]

We are all thinking of you. Big loss and tough to handle. Look forward and one step at a time...........

[TRUCKMAKER]

Wow nate thats some bad news, to think all that is gone in a flash, is the house OK? How about the motorcycles, anything left?

[BRICKNICK]

Hey Nate sorry to hear about the tragedy that fell upon your family. Atleast no one was hurt, it sucks that you guys lost everything but just remember it can all be replaced. With time and effort this to shall pass. Good luck.

[Supermario]

Wow. So sorry for all you lost Nate but very happy to hear everyone is ok.
I always fear theft and losing it all but to go home and see the destruction and what's left after a fire:eek:..... I can't imagine how that feels. My heart goes out to you and your wife.

Mario

[sandfarmer]

Wow Nate, sorry to hear about the fire! I take if from the comments that that's not your house but a super sweet shed right?

[sandfarmer]

Ed,

Jim

Looks like the closest option is St Charles county (KSET) with Creve Coeur (1H0) close as well. I may do this if I'm able to go as well, gonna be a toss up whether Soybean harvest is rolling by then and whether I have the wheat planted. And, of course, weather will play a part in the flying part for this VFR pilot....Instrument rating on the list of to-do's this winter!

[sparkycuda]

Nate, so sorry about the loss. Please know you are in our prayers and thoughts.

Ken

[DieselKid]

Thanks for the update! Maybe later in the winter will work better for me anyway, I guess the building across the street now has tenants? Man that was a sure fire way to get spoiled to a lot of space!

[Izzy]

Holy tamale' - dude that's gotta leave a deep mark. I agree we'd be visiting you while you sucked steak through a straw. Very glad everyone is safe.
Chin up old chap- be thinking of you in kind ways for awhile.

[tc1cat]

Nate,

What a surprise to come home to :eek: Just glad that you are safe. Will be thinking of you.

Ed, Work comes before trucks for most of us. Hope to see you when you reschedule!!
