Good Evening Everyone.
Weather is getting warm. we are 100 degrees here now.
The wife is improving. We are leaving next Tuesday to see her Specialist on Wednesday in Bullhead City. It will hot there 114+ it looks like. I charged the A/C on the Crown Vic it was low on freon. I noticed it wasn't working as good as it should when we were in the Laughlin/Las Vegas area last week. Then with the temps here getting into the 100s it was clear it needed attention. When I gauged it up it did. It hasn't been touched in 5 years that I know of. it sat in the County yard here for 3-4 years we have owned it a little over a year half.

Good luck with the temps. We are hovering over 100 all week, with Tuesday of next week being the hottest at 108.

Hot I know! It got into the upper eighties here at Tahoe. Lol.

Went to the local doc-in-the box today. Infection in my toe! When you are diabetic, as I am, little things like that even get the doctors excited. I only went at my wife's insistence, but it turned out she was right. So now I have to rest my foot for a couple of days so that means that I get the weekend off from my building and remodeling. Pretty cool huh?

Craig, glad your wife is doing a little better. I know how it is with your chronic shoulder problem. I have the same thing but I gave up on the surgeons. Sticking to ibuprofen.

How's my favorite chapter leader? Home from work yet?

OK, you have one more day to prepare yourselves for the weekend off. Deal? Can you get ready that fast? Well do your best Nevadarians and all our drop in guests.

Goodmorning guys,

TGIF! I'm sooo ready for the weekend. I've wanted to ride to work since Monday, but things keep getting in the way. First the Hwy was oiled & sanded, so that caused a couple day delay. Yesterday I was running late, & today...Kaedon decides to have me drop her off at a friend's house for the weekend on my way to work instead of going to work with Jimmy. UGH! Oh well, atleast I've got Saturday & Sunday to ride.

Good morning gang. Starting the weekend early, or so I thought. She wants me to go to Lowes to help choose a bath tub.

Happy Friday Everyone.
Bruce, I wish you a speedy recovery. If you are like me sitting for too long or not doing anything is punishment not rest. LOL.
I'm going to let Dr Fry from Tahoe Fracture Clinic look at all the tests & see what he suggests then go from there. I want to know what my options are.
RA was rules out with the latest blood test so that is a relief.
My wife is much improved today & we got more good news. Her blood counts are all back to normal. The blood clot was what is left from the two she had earlier & is much smaller. So she will be discharged on Monday morning & head to her doctor in Arizona on Tuesday. Glad I charged the A/C on the Crown Vic suppose to be 111-114+ when we are there. It is working much better. These ex cop cars are sure great cars in my opinion. I sure like ours. To have a big car that is fast & gets 20-23 mpg is cool.

Goodmorning

Happy Saturday! Any plans for the day?

We're riding to Carson City to check out a Car Show at Fugi Park. Then later I have to check on my coworkers animals & house since she's out camping.

Thanks Jim. We have decided to leave around midnite to avoid the heat. That will get us there around 8 am. Rather drive at night when it is cooler. Easier on us & the car.
