This is a first. I ordered a bunch of suspension parts for my car last week and they shipped from the various manufacturers.
I got one box Tuesday, one box yesterday and the final box to be delivered today.

The place that the parts are coming from today put a restriction that only an adult 21 years or older can sign for the box.
I've had to sign before, so that's not uncommon, but an adult of 21 and over. I could see if it was alcohol but car parts?

When I told my wife her response was "what sex toys did I order."

 

good morning missouri..

sounds like you are busy rich... that is good will make the time pass faster..

i have plans on heading to texas in june..then maybe skip over to Louisiana, then shoot up to new jersey, then head down to florida, then back up to missouri before heading back to texas .... sounds like a good shake down cruise for the bus..

 

I'm jealous RC because that sounds like a great road trip. Be sure to let us know if you need a hand getting the bus ready to roll.

 

RC that does sound like a blast to hit the road and cruise the US in the ol bus. Back to flying tomorrow....

 

Good Morning From Florida, Everyone!

I couldn't sleep at all so I'm up early pecking around on here. Dad is not in good shape. I'm glad I came down, but it sure is hard to see him like this. I'm trying to get some stuff done while I'm here. I replaced the blades on their mower and cut the grass and trimmed. Fixed a door jamb in the house one of the dogs ate, and cleaned the garage. Today, I'm gonna go through dad's car and get it running again and cleaned up so mom can sell it. It's been sitting, so it just needs a once over and wash. If anyone wants a pristine Pontiac Bonneville with less than 100K on it, let me know.

 

Morning , Sounds like one heck of a trip RC to be back here in July when Rich gets home gonna take some moving right along .

 

Rich glad to see you made it across the pond safely.
Alan, buddy I remember those day's and I really feel for you buddy.
Let us know if there's anything we can do.

 

Well I am for sure back in the saddle, tonight I had a 2 student flight AND and active duty Army crewchief to train/ck ride. NVG door gunnery tomorrow....bang bang.

Hope all goes well got your father Alan, prayers your way.

 

Hang in there Alan. Staying busy will certainly help.

Just when you thought you knew someone... While running errands this morning, we passed some folks heading out with their off-road buggies and I said something along the lines of that might be fun to do someday. Out of the blue, my wife says that she's always thought it would be fun to give it a try. You could have pushed me over with a feather.

Now I'm on the hunt to see if I can still get a set of half-doors and some suspension mods directly from Yamaha designed to make the Rhino less prone to roll-over as part of a recall. The dealership we bought it from kept giving us the run-around about it to keep from having to give stuff out for free until they went out of business. I've contacted a nearby dealer in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, I can still get them. If not, I'm going to have to come up with something on my own. I also need to come up with a soft top for some shade and do a whole lot of cleaning to make it look decent again before I attempt to go wheeling with the wife somewhere.

 

That is awesome Dave, good for her and hooray for you! Now go buy this before she changes here mind. lol

Well those are pretty sweet, but I think I'm going to stick with what I have for now. The lower I can keep the cash outlay for the moment the better things will go over.

 

Yes best way to go, to see if she really likes it or not. But if you buy one built just for that, your are committed and then you do not tear up your Rhino and have to go back to shoveling snow by hand. When ever you are ready I will be more than happy to guide you all on some nice easy trails with beautiful scenery.
