76* down here Andy, but the forecast is not over 90* with a chance of thunderstorms this morning.

Not like there's anything we can do about it.

Car reservation made for my trip to CO next month. It's getting close, and I need to put into practice my favorite ploy for making time go faster. I forget about even going on the trip. If I think about it all the time, days seem to drag. If I forget about it, it's here before I know it. And....GO!

Nice, have fun. I'd love to go to Colorado in the summer time, especially if I had my truck with me

Which on the other hand can barely hold an idle lately, dropping it off at my friends diesel shop Friday
