Tomorrow I'm heading to what will likely be the last show of the season...mostly cars, but they invited us tractor and engine guys. Supposed to be a nice sunny day.
It was good to talk to you and Don today at the show in Powell Butte.

Belated good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Hunting and fishing partner called this afternoon and we decided it was time to go clean the spiders and cobwebs out of the barrels of couple of our rifles.
Then we had to stop by the Vets Club to see if the coffee was hot.

Yes it was....a bit warmer than last time we talked. Fascinating about the hand crank on the car. That's a nice show they put on.
My tractor edged out Don's and got a trophy for best in farm equipment class.....none of the shows we usually go to give out anything.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Was 48 with showers earlier. Cleared up in time for a 'blue sky' sunrise and a break in the showers.
Now we have bands of clouds moving through, coming in off of the beach.

It was a good show, I did not win anything, but I love to drive the trucks and cars way to much!
Weather was great though.

Hands free is O.K., but don't touch it! And with narrow exceptions it also appears to include telling your Garmin Nuvi, TomTom, Majellan etc., where to go unless you are using voice command. Using your CB and FMRS Radio while driving is now illegal - so much for the Rubber Ducky.


If you reach up and touch your Navigation device to tell it where you want to go or punch in an address, you can get a ticket so you'll have to either use the voice command feature or pull over to the side of the road.
If your voice command devices work as well as mine do...

They are upping the fines here too but still not enough as far as I'm concerned and things are going to get worse on the roads next year after the legalize pot...

I got that stripped screw out! All is well! I replaced the Phillips head screws with Allen head and got a few extra for next time.

That's good Evan, I hate Phillip head screws other than their appearance..
