Joyous Sunday morning Kentucky and all the crew. Yesterday was a nice day and today looks to be a repeat. I took advantage of yesterday and spent several hours in my Camp Chair in the front yard in shorts and sandals soaking up all the "D" I could.
Hope everyone has as nice a weekend as we did this side the border!

Sensational Saturday morning Kentucky and crew. Who got the White sheet yesterday? We didn't but had some rain. Today looks to be a seasonable day with rain again.

Yesterday, and today, we've had rain, snow (none stuck) and sleet. If we had some hail we'd have it all.

Fantastic Friday afternoon Kentucky and all the crew. This side the border it is 74°. bright hot sun and alight breeze and Beautiful. Nothing wet falling or forecast for today, yard work done and I will be out in the sun relaxing in the sun!
It is the Weekend Eve and almost time to party!

Had a fuel supply line issue yesterday; apparently the PO had used Teflon Tape to simply wrap the line. It worked for at least 4 yrs (Entire time I've owned the truck) but yeah...


New Stainless Braided PTFE Hose w/ -6AN fittings

You can see the daylight peeking through...

Umm...Yeah


Got off work at 8am, had to drive to Richmond, KY to buy that new line ($30) off a IDI buddy.....Got home at 5pm

So, that was a full day's work, just to get the line? At least it was available, and you didn't have to wait a week for it to come in the mail.

Happy Easter Sunday Kentucky and all the crew and hope you have a blessed day.

Glad you could get the line and fix the problem rather than order one and wait! Looks like at some point the old like was froze at the fitting and they twisted the line causing the crack!

Merry Monday morning UK Crew and hope you had a great weekend and a good start to the week. Raining all across eastern KY and western WV and looks like it will most of the day. About 50° today and frost warning tonight!

Good Tuesday morning Kentucky and crew. Looks like the warmup starts to day after the cold weekend. Warmer today and keeps climbing through the weekend! Hope you have the same.

Warm-up starts for us tomorrow. We have a frost advisory again tonight. Looks like it's going to be a nice weekend though.

Anyone doing anything fun this spring?
