We didn't walk around Virginia City this time & no Cartwrights to speak of. LOL!
We spent most of the morning helping out at the Christmas On The Comstock breakfast at Piper's Opera House.

Hi Hank!
Hi Gerry!

They had tin Cartwright cups? I'll have to keep an eye out the next time I go up there for one of those. One of the stores up there has gotta have it!

No Cartwrights?!?!?! Then it must not have been the REAL Virginia City. Yes, Santa Claus, there is a Virginia City. (Sorry, couldn't resist)

Good Morning NorCal,
Off to Fortuna and Eureka this morning to check with the machinist to see how the bore job went on the engine. Hopefully it only required .30 over to clean it up. I'm having a devil of a time getting the spindle bolts (kings pins) out of the driver's side, and I may have to remove the front axle and have the machinist press them out. Hope not...
Hope you all have a great Tuesday
