I'm still around!

Hey guys, I also posted this on "the other site"
It's been a while since I posted. Lots of family stuff going on... Burt is back in the garage at the city house but I've got work to do on him before the camping season starts again. Still haven't replaced/diagnosed the problem with the temp gauge or the amp meter. He also sprung a leak in the power steering box AND the rear main seal. It's my own fault as I let him sit too much these last months. I usually drive him once a month or so and start up him, run the AC, heat, shift the gears, etc. once a week, but this winter has been difficult for me to say the least and there have been weeks that I didn't even open his door or notice him when I walked by until I drove him down the mountain last week. I feel so guilty! In any event, I'll start in the next couple weeks on the gauges first and then move on to the 2 leaks. I HATE leaks! Hope y'all are doing well. I lurk once in a while here but really haven't had much to say lately. I do drool over some of the 4x4s I see though! I'll keep ya posted on Burt's progress and hope to get more involved here again soon.....
Take care!
Dak
