Morning everyone.

I had 0 luck at the yard. I am looking into online yards now. I have quote requests into a couple. I am just waiting to hear back. I hate waiting for someone to do there job...

I got to talk with our fearless leader Donna for a few. She has been dealing with lots of issues with deaths and nosy neighbors butting in where they don't belong. She hopes to return to FTE soon. She says to tell you she misses you all and she still thinks about us.

I was able to negotiate the price down to $195 shipped for harness and ECU. That's not too bad, and I don't have to pull it in 110+ temps.
Also I finally have the Cherokee back in the garage. We were letting a friend store some things while she moved. It's nice to have my space back.

Afternoon everyone.

I am still waiting on the new harness and ECU to arrive. Amazon prime has spoiled me with 2 day delivery. I hate waiting.

Evening Greg.

I will give Donna a call to let her know we miss her. She is a great lady & I'm sorry to hear she is struggling.

Afternoon Greg.

I texted Donna just a few minutes ago. Told her we missed her.

We are warming up. We are close to 100 degrees. Sure like it better than cold & snowy.

I bought a Mongoose mountain bike awhile back for $20. I replaced some parts and spent about another $70. Today I got to finally to ride it. I hadn't ridden a bike in years. I wasn't sure if I could. I'm still building strength & balance after having my knee replaced. But I did it.

Craig, take it easy on that new knee buddy. Riding a bike this soon is amazing in my eyes! Keep up the hard work.

Good Evening Greg.

My Doctor & PT are amazed at how fast I have recovered. I been working hard. Yea, I'm aware when on it. living in a small town I don't have traffic to worry about.

I'm hoping to get the other one replaced in Oct/Nov.

Sorry to hear about your wife's problems Craig. I'll pray for a speedy recovery.

Greg, I love Amazon Prime. Like you I am spoiled by the two day (and sometimes same day) delivery. I hate waiting too.

Can't believe I missed a whole month of Nevada chat.

I started the July BS thread, and it can be found here:
