Morning Scratcher...I'm right behind you in here!

We went to church last night as I'm catching a flight to LA early this afternoon...

Oldest daughter has a friend upstairs for a sleep over...when those two teen age girls (13) wake up I'll make some bacon, eggs and french toast for the family!...the youngest (11) will be up here shortly...she always is...she's more like dad right now...but when she hits 13...she'll sleep like mom!

Hope everyone has a Blessed Sunday!

My Sunday will be much more relaxed than my Saturday with my butt sitting on a plane most of today...

I'll try and check in before I leave...

Joe.

My oldest son and daughter never had an interest in learning to work on vehicles, I guess you could say my middle son is more like me. However now that my oldest is out on his own he wishes he would have learned more about maintaining car/trucks as it puts a hurt on his wallet every time he has to go to the shop.

Well this is my first post in this Indiana Chapter forum, even though I've been on FTE for almost a year.

Just wanted to stop in and say hello.

Check out my garage for my current project....with the cold weather we have been having, I haven't gotten anything accomplished in some time....just waiting for some nice weather again...which should be a couple months from now!

Welcome Indybeer. I too have a project planned. Just bought me a replacement engine for my 84 F250 6.9 IDI. Found an 87 motor (Best year) which I'm going to rebuild
