Hi all you Nevada peeps and all our esteemed visitors.

I had a cataract surgery on my left eye and it seems to be doing nicely. Now my good eye is my bad eye!

Hope everyone is well and happy.

Tried to call Donna but just left a message.

Crazy weather this year. Cold today.

kermmydog, Dodge Duster? Don't you mean Plymouth Duster?

Bdox, congratulations on your successful surgery.

I have just spent the last week in the hospital (got out yesterday) because somehow I contracted pneumonia. While in the hospital they discovered I have CLL cancer. On top of that, they also seem to think I have leukemia. So tomorrow I will be having a bone marrow procedure to see if I have that. My mom had 3 different kinds of cancer and lived to be 70, so I plan on living a long life as well. her sister died of cancer too, so I guess it runs in the family.

No worries, I have owned 5 Dusters, and 3 Darts in my wayward youth before switching to Ford. Never owned a Demon though. As for the cancer, I am taking it all in stride as I don't feel any worse now than I did before I found out I have it.

Jim, a positive attitude will help you a bunch I believe. I have a friend in Nevada dying of cancer. I just called him tonight to find out he is back in the hospital. I'm afraid he might not be coming home soon.

Craig,

I haven't heard from Michelle in a few months. She pops into the thread every so often to say hi, but w/o a regular computer, it's hard. She hass to use her phone to get online & I hear it's a real pain in the rear!!
Glad to hear things are going well for you & your family. I have family in Arizona that I haven't even met. Maybe 1 of these days though.
Great hearing from you. Keeping in touch...

Happy Sunday Nevada FTE and friends. Hope everyone has a blessed Sunday.

Hey Donna, I am getting a partial settlement check this Friday. Is that truck still for sale? (Just kidding!)

hello all, I hope you all had a great weekend.
I put the steel line on the truck over the weekend. looks a little rough because I had to figure out what bends to make the length of line fit.
I might get another and use the first as the template, to purdy it up some.
Have not been able to properly test but I also picked up a waterpump and t-stat that I will put on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Supposed to get nice and hot this week so I will be able to test and see if the steel line fixes the problem or if I should keep searching.

Good afternoon Nevada. I'm glad Michelle is OK. I guess she is still in Fallon.
Don't forget Drag Racing "The Strip" Las Vegas this weekend. Suppose to be 115 at Nellis on Saturday. We have excessive heat warnings for Fri-Sun with temps reaching 123 here on the river. I guess we might need our A/C. Thankfully all our vehicles have good working A/C as does our house.
