Hey Randall,

We've been spending a lot of time in UT for the past several years. Finally found what we've been looking for and bought a second house. Hopefully I'll retire there in another 10years or so. I stay in the Vegas house during the week for work, and drive up on the weekends.


Glad to see you back here again. Hope all is well with you, and here's to health and prosperity.

Hey Dave,

Send me a message if you're up for grabbing something to eat tomorrow evening.

It's been as I cold as I ever remember in Vegas this past week. My pool had an inch of ice on it, and my lawn was frozen.

It has been cold, it has been 6 years since it was this cold in Vegas from what I have been told.
Monday night one of my buildings actually had a 1" ball valve that supplies water to the boiler freeze and break. I am used to any water line outside having electric heat on it, but here they are just insulated, and some aren't even insulated!

PM inbound...

OK SLC peeps I'm gonna need to know if anyone has a good shop they've taken their trucks to! I'm pretty sure I'm in need of a set of head gaskets and want to find a shop that will dobit right e.g. check the heads for warping and cracks and check the block deck for the same! If anyone knows of one please let me know so I can get a quote and start saving!

Thanks guys!
