Good evening Oregon and Visiting Ford Fans.
Listed the apartment for rent last night. Finding out there are not a lot of rentals available.

 

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else.

Spent yesterday at OSHU in Portland. Got a phone call just before 0800 yesterday morning letting us know #1 son had been in a "really bad wreck" on I-5 near the Rest Stop south of Wilsonville. He was being transported via Ambulance to OSHU up in Portland. The car is totaled. Air bags failed to deploy. They are a part of the recall and they had just had them worked on and "fixed" a couple of weeks ago. Someone is going to have some explaining to do on that one.

He has several things going on, but does have a 4" break in his chest plate. Very nasty raspberry from the shoulder harness...definitely looks like he picked a fight with the wrong person - or object in this case.
He may get to come home this morning. They were watching for cardiac trauma and bruising, but they were pretty optimistic last night.
We're waiting to hear from Julie to see if she is going to get to bring him home.

In the mean time the weed eater is demanding some company and attention this morning and I still have to get the head knocker off of the pickup.

It Just depends on whether or not she breaks down and leaves us stranded somewhere...

It's a FORD, what could fail?

Good morning Jim and those to follow.

Prayers for #1 Son to have a speedy recovery.

 

Good morning Chris and others. Jim, hope he recovers quickly!

 

Good afternoon Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Lunch time. Got word from Julie that they have left the hospital and are on their way home. They are moving 'very, very slowly'.

 

Good evening Jim and those to follow.
Jim good news that Son #1 got to go home, prayers for a speedy recovery.

 

Howdy everyone.

 

Good morning Ford Fans.
I have two windows to replace today.

 

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else.

 

Good afternoon Ford Fans.
Two new windows are in now to finish the trim.

 

Howdy everyone.

 

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Head knocker is off the pickup, the lines of dirt and build up of junk under where it was has been cleaned off. Initial coat of Hybrid Ceramic wax on the pickup and a 3rd coat of Lexol on the leather.

Went over to #1 sons this afternoon/evening. He's walking in a fashion that reminds me of a combination of a Charlie Chaplin walk and a clown walking with a pair of those great big floppy clown shoes on.
He insists he is going to work tomorrow....

 

Good evening Evan, Jim and those lurking behind their monitors.
Didn't get as much done today as I needed to, but did show the apartment four times today.

Jim is Mamma going to whack #1 son up along the side of the head hard enough to make the accident injuries look minor?

 

There is a distinct possibility that one of us (#1 or me) could be visiting the hospital. It would seem that there is no changing his mind and somehow it is MY fault as I supposedly set a bad example for him to follow when he was young and impressionable. .

 

It is always the guys fault!
