Okay gang.......Summer is over. I'm sure you're still sweating it out down south, but we're on the verge of snow up in Flagstaff! Can't say I'm quite ready for it this year.....haha

I've been taking advantage of the nice warm days in Flagstaff, re-decking the trailer that I bought. It was pretty rough, but I got a great deal. I'll have it looking brand new soon.

Here is a pic of the rear differential on my Bronco. The gears decided they wanted to be on the outside, instead of the inside haha. Still haven't swapped in the new stuff, gotta finish my trailer, so I can haul it to my buddy's house....

Have a great day!

Howdy Bill! Just wrapping up some projects before the snow hits up here. I bought a snowblower off Craigslist for $40 bucks that doesn't run. Hoping a new plug, and some fresh gas will do the trick. They said it hasn't ran in 3 years hahaha........we shall see! How's Tucson treating ya?

Scottsdale is expensive anything north or past the eastern res would be cheaper and better Neibor hoods , around 35th Thomas rd is considered south Phoenix now so your call ( but you can get into a nice home ) with security bars and a shot gun , if your interested in East Mesa I'm putting Dads home on the Market it's 55 and older community close shopping etc p.m me if you are interested.

I'm sure there are better areas out north Phoenix , lower pricing would be inter valley, I have a realtor ( if interested ) that could work with you. Good luck
