Not me, took the car to Red Carpet Car Wash yesterday so it would be clean for the upcoming wax job. I tried cleaning it at a DIY car wash, but did a lousy job. So I paid the professionals to do it. Now I just need to get off my bum and apply the wax. LOL Probably be thirsty afterwards though.

Boy I sure am happy it is Friday. Been a looooong week, trying to get as many loose ends tied up before my business partner heads to Honduras to sail his dads trimaran up to Florida for 2 weeks....doesn't sound fun to me-but to each his own. I hope everyone has a great Easter weekend

Whoo boy did it get warm yesterday. Spent most of the day in El Granada, less than 1000 feet from the shore line, and it hit 81 in the shade. Suddenly, winter is over.

I don't even want to think about what this upcoming summer will be like. I have to get the car's AC fixed before then.

Sorta still here. We went Mtn Biking this morning to work on a Merit Badge for the Minion. Had to replace two tubes, two tires and two bicycle helmets. I guess that at 15+ years, we got our money's worth out of them.

Cool, so did they get the merit badges? I have not been biking since my accident in 2011. Miss that, and being able to play tennis the most due to that accident.
