Good job Ray!

I'm not slacking, just busy.
Got up late today because we finally got the go ahead.

I'll be painting the porch, resetting the flagstone I pulled up to bury the drainage, welding a bunch of ladder brackets and going for a bicycle ride on some trails near here with Tina and my better half. (if she can get on a bike today )

I am mad at myself for sleeping in, but not too mad. It looks like a real nice day out today. Miles, those pictures looked pretty good, and I can even see my truck in the one!

parents lawn mower runs great now.

fixed my friends harley so it has breaks, the sprockets are aligned, and the rear rotor is not rubbing on the swingarm. i dont know how he was able to ride it the way it was. he did say it rides better than ever now.

mustang has oil changed, coolant flushed, and i found a broken coil spring in the front (eibach, only 4 years old). WTF. mustangs unlimited for me tomorrow after work!
