here too dave, although probably nowhere near as hot as your area.

during my drive to NY last night around 11pm the sky looked like a strobe light there was so much lightning, i wish i had brendons camera to capture some of it.

we had so much rain, my gutters seemed to have cleaned themselves.

Aaron:

After the ice dams of 2010-2011 I put up solid top leaf guards over the guttars.

Hopefully they are working.

Project rescue the 550: Not a success

Attempt 1 involved running a cable through the tow hook back to the snatchblock on the front of the trailer to my brother's 24v. That ended in pulling the front of the trailer about 2 feet closer to the curb.

Went to pulling in a straight line with the trailer. Got the front wheels of the 550 about halfway up the dovetail when the pintle hook I was using let go and the back of the trailer met mother earth.

May attempt again with a higher quality hook than I had. Needed to borrow my brother's pintle hook to get the trailer back. Truck is still there.

I think the IPR is plugged with the pieces of the crappy original screen that sits below the oil cooler but I'm not pulling a turbo and checking in the middle of a residential neighborhood.
