Just August BS Thread

Pardon the belated start. There's always sumthin'.

Nice day, low humidity. It's a blessing.

I'll take it & be thankful.

Be safe y'all.

Yep.... yesterday afternoon was NICE! I drove home after work with my windows open in my '78 and it felt SO GOOD! Thank the Lord!

Y'all stay away from the NEW covid. There is currently 8 people from our shop that went home after a positive covid test.

Here's a bit of recent work. Thomas did some repair on a parking lot dent at the top of my TG & painted it.

Since I had the stainless panel off, I worked up a fix for the mounting holes with SS washers, acorn nuts & permatex to keep the water out.

He wet sanded it yesterday & when I get it outside, I'll pic it in the sun to do it justice.

It ain't really green.

Amen!
Lord please be with us!.... another covid epidemic is on the way. Looks like this time, the gov is gonna see if we learned anything from the first go-round.
And, biden is back to his "hidin' ways".

I think I like it better being..."On my own".... I think I can stay 6 feet from folks and wear a mask if I want to.

Power has stayed on so far. This neighbor hood kept it through Katrina, but Ida looked to be different.

Seems it hung around south long enough to loose a major amount of wind.

Sorry for them but thankful for us.
