There's a joke in there somewhere I'm just having a tough time finding it.

Afternoon guys. Got the foglights in today... took me all of a half an hour to do it. It's nice enough out, I might take all of my spare quarters later and go to the car wash.

Thanks Andy. Two of the parts Jeeps that found its way into my yard had the 225... one running and one not running. The one that did run have the 3 speed manual, that was fun to drive around the yard. One of the additional Jeeps that I don't count in the tally was a later CJ5... I think 76 or 77, with the 258 I6 and I believe a 4 speed. I would love to get another CJ, or convert the blue Jeep to a manual. I couldn't imagine the V8 with a 4 speed in something as light as the Jeeps are.

One more, of a concrete filled hole that we just pumped. Aaron found a good caution sign to put in front of it.
