WHAT ?!?!? You and the missus pop a bouncing baby Green Iron Addict and all you can post is the time of the drop? How about NAME, RANK, and SERIAL NUMBER; along with Mini-Me's GVWR upon arrival, length over all, hair color and quantity and most of all....
Now, let's take a knee....
Heavenly Father,
We joyously congratulate these new parents and bless this baby boy with ALL of Your Promise. May he be raised to know and love You, his parents, and all who already love him. Guide his parents by Your light as they raise him to manhood. May they one day hear Your voice proclaim, "Well done, good and faithful servants."
In Jesus' name we pray,
AMEN.

Thank you for posting those specifications.
Remember to READ the TMs - the Male variant operates somewhat differently than the Female version.

Mike's trying to get the whole set! Be blessed, Brother!
Sounds like there's a lot of baby-makin' goin' on.... My step-daughter is expecting her first (a girl, Madilyn Jane) on 9/15. Six days ago she was already dilated to 3cm. The Doc says "all systems are GO", so now we patiently wait. Dianna and I already have two grandsons, ages 10 and almost 4 (on 9/10), by our son (Dianna's step-son). This will be Dianna's first biological grandchild. Lord, is she excited!

I know it is short notice, wasn't sure if I could go, but Saturday morning, there is a parade in Aberdeen or Hoquim about 1100. We are going down doing the WW2 thing with vehicles and people in uniform, but I am sure that you could tag along at the end of the line, if you wanted to bring an M series along. we are also doing a parade on Sept. 20 in Quillcene and there will be a mixture of WW2 vehicles and M Series for that one.

I was wondering if any of you know someone in Pacific NW that is knowledgeable on these generators and/or where we might be able to buy parts?
I have one I'd like to get up & running for this winter. A mechanic and I spent a few days going through the TMs troubleshooting last year but were unsuccessful. We had to move on to other projects, we thought it might be the printed circuit board, but were not at all certain. It starts & runs fine, just won't put out any juice.

Hey Peter that's in my AO. What's going on in Aberdeen/Hoquiam area tomorrow????? I've got a double header I'm coaching from 0900-1430 hours in Montesano. So it looks like I'm going to miss it. Must be the Logger's Playday Parade.

Coug, Sorry I didn't get this on your radar sooner, but you do have to take care of the kid stuff first. The green iron will still be there.
We ended up with 5 vehicles and six crunchies for the parade. 3 WW2 jeeps, a 1 1/2 ton Chev, and a 2 1/2 tone CCKW. One of the wives drove my jeep (we had to do a quick jeep driving lesson in the parade) and I marched as the BAR person in the squad. Had all the gear and tell you what, I am getting too old to be packing a BAR on a forced march. It was fun and the people really seemed to enjoy it. I talked with people along the route and most, especially the younger ones, did not know that we were representing WW2. A few youngsters asked about the BAR, it is a dewat, so I let them heft it. They were surprised at the weight. Many seem to understand what the weapon is, as they see it in video games, but they don't really get the reality of the gear. Anyway it was fun.

In for Sunday, have to work Saturday. RR in T-town would be a nightmare for a 5T or even a Deuce.

All September weekends are a no go for me. I have a double header to ump and a double header to coach every Saturday. Yes, that's four little league games;-/. Those are a good 12 hour day.

Sept. 20 we have a parade in Quillcene if anyone would like to tag along. Oct. 4 is the Olympic Flight Museum Fall military show. Oct. 11, is the Puyallup Gunshow, where they host military vehicles to be on display outside the event. After that things sort of open up until Nov. 8 for the Auburn Veterans parade. There are numerous small events on Nov. 11
Also on Oct. 11 will be the Fall fund raiser for the NW Chapter of the USO in Bellevue. Please check their site if you are interested in attending. It is a hotel in downtown Bellvue, so there isn't any room for MV's, unless they let me take the 42 up the freight elevator. I did that once at the old Seahawks stadium and then I drove it down the people ramps to get it out, because the elevator was tied up.
