Howdy az gang today ended up getting all new parts on the 84 bronco II, 94 Explorer and new A/C refrigerant in the 97 expedition. Unfortunetly my A/C condenser on the 02 is broken so I have to fix that now.

Turns out I didn't need shoes for the 02 I had misjudged not sure how that happened. OOPS. LOL

Also can't get the Bronco II to start with a key. really pissing me off. LOL

Happy HOT Sunday.
Only 117 degrees & around 30-40% humidity. Real comfortable outside.

Been raining for 3 hours over here to. Was raining while I was bringing home number 13 of the vehicle list.

1987 Ford E-350 dually cab and chassis 460 V8 C6 auto trans Mallord motorhome. 2 things that are the coolest about it: she has 60K original miles and she was FREE! Supposedly she runs but I couldn't get her started when I was their. Vacuum advance vacuum line was broken a couple wires were chewed by rats and battery was getting low while trying to start it so I flat towed it home with the 02 F250.
Going to get her running and clean her up some and fix her up and use her to go camping. Generator looks brand new in it, has a full banks exhaust system with headers and cats deleted, a bunch of new parts waiting to be installed and everything is almost perfectly straight. Unfortunately the inside is a bit trashed but nothing some soap and water can't take care of. Also has a brand new set of 16 inch wheels and tires!
I will get pics up later once we clean her up some more.

Not long after I posted it started raining here very hard for about a 1/2 hour. It rained so hard that our TV satellite went out. The temps dropped to about 84 degrees.
We are headed to the property in the morning to meet with the people cutting our trees & cleaning up. It looks like it could be raining all week.
Next week we are going up to Nevada for a few days for R&R. I will get to visit with my friend & Vici will most likely just hang out at the Hotel, which she likes just being able to rest & do nothing. Unlike me I want to being doing something.

Ok some pics for y'all of number 13 (check posting 217). I have the hub caps in the vehicle I just took them off to air up the tires and I wanted to pull them off so they wouldn't fall off while bringing her home.

Hi all!

Got back in town last night. Luckily I had today off, as I had a lot of errands to run & have to take William to the orthopedic dr this afternoon.

He fell off a swing last Thurs & broke his left arm just above the elbow. Boys!

Here is a brief album of some of the places we visited. Hope you enjoy.

Welcome home Amy.
Missed the album. Where did you attach it?
I broke my arm around 5 years old I think it was.

112 degrees 30% humidity. Weather says feels like 118 degrees. Was up on the mountain yesterday & it was just lovely rained in the afternoon was really nice. I don't know how many more summers I will be able to take here. It has really taken a toll on me this year. I feel crappy again today. Had to go up on the roof this AM to clear the A/C drain. Just a 15 minute deal about did me in.
Bought my dog a set of boots to protect his feet from the asphalt & concrete heat. He isn't to sure about them. They are heavier & bulkier than the ones he had. But he will get use to
them.

Trav nice score.
We have a 2000 Mallard TT. The TT part went broke but Fleetwood still builds Mallard motor homes. As far as I'm concerned the 00 Mallard TT we have is a better trailer than our 05 Thor Tahoe. If the Tahoe wasn't bigger with a slide I would of sold it when I bought the Mallard 2 years ago. The Mallard has much better appliances than the Tahoe. The Mallard has all the original appliances where the Tahoe has had a new hot water heater, & converter. The guy we bought the Mallard from was the original owner & he lived in it full time as long as we have our Tahoe. So it isn't that one was used more. The refer in the Mallard is way better.
