2 more days of election ads and then finally back to the normal ads on TV. They give us 2 hours of paid time off to go vote.

I will finally have all the vehicles fixed but there always seems to be something to do around here. One last thing I need to do is winterize the boat before it gets really cold.

I be glad to not see the ads, tired of them.

We would get bored if we did not have stuff to do, but look at how much money we save

Glad they let you off early.

We pulled the tractor out to the land today. The truck is definitely down on power. Just the pull to the land water temp got up to 230.

We meet our neighbor across the street. (Deputy Sheriff for Newton county). He is letting me park everything at his place as long as I need to. Also told us they would keep an eye on our land.

Went to get the tag for the trailer only had to pay $12.00

I just going to use the truck around town maybe out to the land for the winter. I do a little to it over the winter, them in spring get back on it heavy. Then I look at a new IP pump, Tranny rebuild, and if compression is down a possible rebuild. IF I can find one a Superduty rearend with disc brakes and a 3.73 gear.

Went to bed at 2am, when Penn. looked lie it would not change. Woke up at 4:20 to find out Trump won. I am happy about the outcome, and hope he will get done what needs to be done. The tough part today is only having 2 1/2 hours of sleep. USA, USA.

Stock Market did a little rebound so nothing super crazy.

Hillary and the Democrats sure got one hell of a surprise last night.

Was tired today too, fixing to hit the sack.

Thank goodness it's Saturday!!!
It was a busy week at work and I am ready for the weekend. The cooler weather is nice but it makes me not so motivated to work outside. The riots over the election are crazy.

Going to try and do a little work to the 79. I need to install the heater control valve and the new grill I've had for months now. I need to clean the MAF sensor on the suburban. I also need to do a little yard clean up now that the oak tree has just about dropped all it's leaves.
