As most people know, when a door shuts, another one opens going somewhere else. I will be furthering my education at Western Carolina University in Culowhee, NC. I will study Commercial & Electronic Music.
I haven't had any time to do anything it seems like, this time came too fast. The Bird won't be going with me my first year, but I hope to bring it to the campus next year. Right now, the air compressor is done for so I have to buy a replacement when i come home for the fall. It's sad because I had so much to do to the car (GT40P heads, Explorer intake and TB, Mustang headers and BBK Xpipe, so much more), but the time came to fast.
Each time I visit home, I'd like to work on the car until I get it to where I want it. But for now, my life is about to change completely. I'll live on my own 3 hours away from home; I'll be apart of a 500 person marching band; I'll be living my dream as a music major. Wish me luck, I move in Thursday.

Good luck.. You can never go wrong with continuing your education. As Vinnie said the car will be there. In your spare time you can make a"To-do" list for your car.(lol). but as Ive said before these cars are never "truly" finished:)....Again, Good luck.

Thanks guys! Being away will give me time to think about what else I want to do. I agree with you 100%.

Hey guys. Been going 8:30am to 10:00pm every day since Thursday with the WCU Pride Of The Mountains Band. Starting to get settled in and I'm really loving being here on my own.
I had hoped I'd see and fox Thunderbird somewhere up here. From the looks of the stickers on the back window, it belongs to someone in the band. I honestly never get a chance to see another fox Thunderbird/Cougar, so it feels good to see one when I'm far away from home.
