I got the new float needle and gaskets in my motorcycle carb, and got the carb back in the bike. Hopefully I can get the tank back on and fire it up tomorrow.

The lift was damaged when snow caused a roof collapse. Derek got it for $500 and can fix/replace the broken pieces for $1,000 or less. New those lifts are about $4,000.
I wish I had a place to put one Evan..

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Spent the day enjoying several miles worth of hiking in the beautifully scenic Coast Range Mountains of Oregon.


Picked up something in the pickup tire this morning on my way to my buddy's house. It was about half flat when I got there and totally flat after we finished a cup of coffee. Let the pickup there and took his.
When we got back this afternoon, we aired it up and I drove it home. Just went out and checked it, (4 hours after it was aired up) and it hasn't lost a pound!?!?!?!?!?!?


Guess I'll take it to town in the morning and have the tire shop check it out.

Belated good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 39 and overcast. Dog have had lots of exercise this morning.


Heading to town to get the tire on the pickup checked. It was still aired up this morning. Also have to get to the care home to check on the Wardens mother and the Daughter in Laws grandmother.
On a bright note, our good friends who's mother was in the hospital on life support and a coma, appears to be recovering. Still in ICU, but the tubes and hoses have been disconnected and she is doing nicely on her own.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Got home from the Care Center a little bit ago. Situation going down hill and not improving.
Checked into the care home at 1045 and checked out at 1900. Time for some dinner.


Cougar hunting in the morning.

Morning all. Dragging today, kids kept me up late. Girl lost her game last night and boy is trying to figure life out. Hopefully he gets his act together soon.
