I shot a racoon last week. I always keep live traps out to keep these guys down but this year I seem to have something about every other day in the traps. Usually a possum.

Belated good morning Oregon. Dodging rain showers right now. Trying to get things in order before we leave again in 2 weeks. I'll post some more pics of the GTG as time permits.
Managed to get one huge coon in a live trap and he nearly tore it apart. Got quite a few possums and then it seemed like nothing but skunks every time I turn around.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Just got home from a YCSA and OSP meeting. We also had a tube steak BBQ with Potato Salad...

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 48 and overcast. Supposed to rain tomorrow. Just might "dampen" the festivities at the Carnival in our back yard that supposed to start at 1500 Thursday.

Good morning!
Been awaiting a dry day that worked with my schedule to get the windshield in my '00 Expedition replaced. This past winter, I started experiencing the dreaded electrical issues that accompany a leaky windshield dripping down the A-pillar and onto the GEM/fuse box, as well as some leaking from the top that happened every time I took it through a car wash.
Parked it inside, dismantled and removed the GEM and fuse box to dry them out, re-assembled and all my issues (fog lights not working, radio issues, blower fan turning on full blast with key-off/engine-off) dryed up as well.
Well, it's been sitting inside my shop for the past 3-4 months, but today, got a brand new Carlite windshield installed and everything sealed up nicely.
Glass shop reports that there was zero rust issue, but that the windshield adhesive had lost adhesion on the top of the windshield and both side A-pillars - only being held on by the bottom adhesive.
Now I've got a sparkly new clear windshield, and hopefully I'll be able to drive my Expedition in the rain again without any further issues!
Good times!
