Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else.
Called the repair shop in Woodburn today where the boat trailer is. I'm beginning to question recommendations we got, even though it was an emergency and we didn't have much choice.
They have had it for a full month and the trailer is still not repaired. They called me on 04-19 and said they had all the parts and it would be done in a week. Hadn't heard a thing from them since.
Called them today and they said they had to get a part at 1500 this afternoon and then would get right to work on it and then told me, "Have a nice weekend".
Didn't tell them I was grounded from the surgery, but I sure wanted to ask them how we could have a nice weekend if they didn't have the boat trailer fixed after all this time. They hung up too quickly.

Hey Guys! I'm back! Sorry for the absence, it's been a crazy time for a while! I'll be starting my 66 F250 Project soon! Hoping to pick up a hot 390 for it tomorrow. Doing a front suspension swap first thing...
Hope you guys are doing good!

A couple of nice days.....followed by a big storm last night. Most of it went around us, but about 20 miles west big hailstones caused some severe damage.
Kind of cool and damp today......will see what tomorrow brings.
Started helping my cousin again......lots to do for him, plus I'm hoping to work on some of my projects.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 38, clear and the sun is up now. Had a few clouds and a rain shower to soak things down a while ago, but no signs of anymore of that now.

Happy Saturday guys! No luck on getting a motor today. Guy sold it out from under me. 
So, to console myself I upgraded my air compressor for the shop. 
Hope you guys are enjoying this awesome weather! I'm in shorts much to my neighbors horror!

Been off and on with the weather here. Had a rain shower a little bit ago and sunshine now.
Bummer on the motor.
Since I'm grounded, all I can do is watch the grass grow out of control anyway.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Sunshine and a slight breeze at the moment. No more clouds visible at the moment.
Going to try and talk the Warden into letting me out of jail tomorrow long enough to get the lawn mowed. I doubt she will since it has only been 4 1/2 days since the surgery.
A visual that I have been trying very hard to not imagine.
