Went out for a drive today. Took some used oil to recycle. I lost the lid and the zip tie and Saran Wrap didn’t hold. So I oiled my bed a little.


then I went out to check out the house with 10 garages. The price has dropped to $1.4 million.



this place was on the road. Can you identify the black truck? I’m thinking 50 something Chevy

Seriously, you used PT lumber, right, so it should be good for many years.

Yeah, and it is inside all the time so it will be many years before I have to worry about it. I do use it as a truck, but not a great deal.

Good for you! Sometimes I miss my 54 the way it was before I fixed it up. I didn't have to wash it. I could drive it in the winter. I didn't have to worry about dings and rust.

Through the dirty windshield, yesterday. Like Abe posted in his thread, we've had a lot of rain since the last great salting of the roads. It was about 60F and sunny, all day.
