It's parked in the garage now - so later when it cools down I can clean the windows.

I won't even get into the traffic issues this week either. And school starts on Monday so traffic will really get interesting starting next week.

Monty - Have a good camping trip. A bad day camping is still better than a good day at work.
Get that house ready to sell........sell it ASAP. Live in an Apartment ( cheaper and no headaches ) until you get medically retired. Then home to Alaska....

Hi Guys, Just a quick check in. Everything is fine at our house, a little scary for a while as the fire got to within a 1/4 mile from our house. It is still really smoky here but no sign of fire near by. But there are lots of fire all around us. It's a real bummer seeing all of the area burning.

I gotta run.
Catch ya later

Tim

Tim, good to see you've been spared. My dad and I started redoing my brick sidewalk with concrete today. Looks nice but impossible to keep ice off it in the winter since its too rough. Dad told me if we don't do it this year he's going to be too old next year. Mixed 14 80# bags by hand, made it about 11'. Looks like only 28 more 80# bags to go................. His father was a bricklayer all his life, and he started out doing concrete work, but eventually moved on. He still enjoys doing it though.


On another note one of my buddies dropped by to show off his new to him 2013 F250 Platinum that he picked up this week with 21k on it. The dealer made him a great offer on his 05 V10 and he jumped ship to go back to diesel with the 6.7. He traded his 95 F350 CCLB 4x4 7.3 with 96k for the 05 in 07 and has missed the 7.3. He never should have sold that truck! But the 6.7 is leaps and bounds ahead.

Good evening, Gerry, Monty, Mitch, Doug, Andre, Dak, Roy, Tim, Scott, Don, and all. We are the toyhauler in Tampa for the weekend. Got the damaged right landing gear replaced this morning. All is working well. The temp reached 98F this afternoon before the rains came . It is comfortable outside now.

Have a great evening, all.

Good morning guys! I hope all of you are doing well this morning! We had a LOT of rain at the campground around midnight until 3 this morning with more on the way today. It's still camping though! I wish all you guys having these fires could get some of this!! Have a great day ladies and gentlemen!!
