I would like to take a minute and thank each and every veteran. Our friends, family, and customers who have served and are serving. If it were not for you, we would not be able to enjoy the lives we have.
As luck would have it, our guide Ben Warner, was off today. We scheduled our yearly birdhunt in July for this very day. First snow of the season. Cold. Windy. Perfect! Even though John Delp thought we were nuts! Andy Rowan for saying exactly what John was gonna say and for stocking and cleaning the birds. From the quail right off the bat. To the duck at 80 yards over our heads that nobody thought we could hit....... the same duck I helped "land" next to 50 ducks that took off immediately that sent Shawn Anderson into a shooting frenzy. Zane Lucas becoming the quick draw killer. Kash Suthar shooting his first birds ever. Cody Smith despite having a shotgun that hated federal ammo, shot his fair share! Bo Murray smiling the entire time like usual! Jason Vandervort. He may have had the smallest caliber but that didn't stop him dropping three of the last birds on that final push. We have all become better shots! 130 pheasant and chukar, 2 quail, and I believe 3 or 4 ducks. Also, I don't think any of us will forget the cat getting rag dolled...🤣🤣🤣
This year has been beyond challenging. Losing and letting go of employees, gaining new ones, trying to build in the borough, parts issues, etc.... At almost 10 years in, I would not trade or change any of it. This crew has earned it. All the curveballs, being busy pretty much year round, every change, and even putting up with me... Best crew ever! To our honorable mentions who were not out with us today, Chad Brocious. Appreciate your mentorship with Kash and bringing your experience and bust your ass day in and day out. And my dad, Charles Greenawalt. Shop gopher! And my wife Jill Greenawalt for allowing me to hunt as much as i can this time of year! Thank you!
Being able to do these kinds of things helps break the mundane everyday schedule and I feel helps keep us the crew that we are and brings us closer together. It gives us all something to look forward to and to work towards together outside of the shop. Yes it puts us a little further behind. However I guarantee you wouldn't find a better shop with a group of guys that all get along. That is huge for the out come of your vehicle repair. Thank you veterans and yet again all of our customers! Without all of you, this would have never been possible. Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!!
