Well that's a good find Pat, time for a "test pipe"

Hope all had a good weekend. Mine was nice and relaxing, went out Saturday and had an awesome night with Keli. Went to Charlotte Sunday to pay last respects to a good friend, and hang out with some other good friends.

Back to work this week, open house this weekend for work. Planning a trip to the dunes the following weekend.

The Tiki Bar was serving ice cold drinks, so the heat wasn't too much of a factor. Had a great weekend. Stay warm y'all!

Still haven't gotten my truck back. I have no oil pressure. Looks like the dummy plug, STC fitting, and stand pipe fix. That stuff was on my to do list anyways...I was hoping to do it myself and not pay the dealer.

We were able to have our travel trailer towed to our spot on Drummond Island, so we're not really "stuck", but still....

We use our trucks around here to get places and it just sucks not having my own.
