Hello Grant, Perry.
No action on the boat yet, got my fingers crossed as I need the space.
Members of the combined traffic unit clocked two motorcyclists going more than 180 km/h.

Was that the original motor and transmission that you pulled from the truck Morris. You may need some more rain in order to sell the boat, my brother tried off and on for 2 years to sell his bowrider but then again it was around 30'.

Crazy fools on bikes, no wonder it costs so much to put them on the road in some provinces.

Break time again as its 31 in the shade, good thing that I have the key for the house and can keep my jug of ice tea cold in their fridge. Advantage of working at the same house that I'm house sitting. I've given up on my glasses as my eyesight changes according to my energy levels, blind one moment, sit down for 15 minutes and can see what I'm doing for a while. Lol

It`s a bigger 292 version of a original 272 that was stock in the 56, both are Y Block engines Perry. It`s a spare for my 56 F350 if I ever need one. Mine is a nice 16 ft family boat, the lakes and rivers here have plenty of water.
It`s because of crazy fools that it costs $140 a month to plate my Shadow.
Hope you find your glasses Steve or did you already?
Cold ice tea really hits the spot on hot summer days.

Bummer on the glasses Steve, how much can you see without them? I would be ok without mine but it wouldn`t be great.

Hello everyone.
32°C is today`s high, it`s too warm for me too Grant.
Hello Steve, no idea where you lost your glasses? I sometimes misplace the fob for my Mustang as I don`t drive it every day.

Repeat of yesterday's weather, if I didn't need to get this job done this week I'd take the day off.

I'd try the drugstore as I found a couple of racks of glasses there.

My job for today got moved over to tomorrow, it won`t be a lot cooler.
I buy all my sun glasses at Costco now, $40 a pair but they are the best I`ve found.

Got all the thistle out of the front yard, had enough to fill my wheelbarrow and it's a big wheelbarrow. Pretty thrilling night, huh.
