Bdpotts, I know this is a little late, but I keep my spare key in my wallet. Mainly because I have lost count how many times I have locked my keys in the truck.

Happy Monday! It was a sweltering 48 today about noonish! Clear, sunny, and no smog. My best friend took me out to lunch at Yosemite Falls cafe, and it was very good. It was a congratulations meal for getting a job.

I have kept a spare key in my wallet ever since the first time I locked them in, and had to pay someone to get them out. The way I see it, 3-4 dollars for a key is a lot cheaper than $70 for a locksmith. of course, that price was 20 years ago, I can only imagine what they charge now.

bd, Don't have a beater yet, but when this job picks up I'll want to get something as soon as possible because I don't want to pay the high fuel bill of the Bronco, I saw a sweet little Mercedes-Benz 190e a month or so ago, but it has been sold. So I will look for something else.

Jim

Good Morning Nor Cal...Been out of of touch with you all for too long. Still down here in the So Cal desert for while longer. Mighty cool in the AM here, and I thought i'd miss that.
Hope you all have a great day.

Hey Sparky! Long time no see. Been pretty nice here in the central valley. Highs in the upper forties, with no rain in sight. Glad you are enjoying So Cal. I'll be down there at Pismo this upcoming weekend.
