I'm enjoying it even though I thought I was in the Great Basin this morning. I wish everyone a safe drive home and a blessed. New Year.

I just saw something about the Great Basin Park that it was one of the few remaining "dark places" in the continental US. Great star gazing opportunity!

Today looked absolutely gorgeous when I managed to get near the windows. So much fun being chained to a computer.

I think that I've got the bride's 5.4l Super Duty ready for her to commute to Chico State next month. Got the vapor canister replaced and upgraded/replaced the lights in her instrument cluster so she can see the gauges (as if she ever reads them).

Hate paying for someone else to do these things, but time and workspace are not on my side. Chuck at On Off Road Center in Redding has been good to us and really knows his way around a even though he drives a bow tie.

Happy Friday No Cal! Have a safe holiday weekend.

Will, even bowtie people can be good mechanics. How do you think they got so much experience?
