Good Weekend Eve Washington, Tim, Ken, Preston, Ken, Kenny, Steve and all the crew.
Preston, I agree the truck looks pretty good and some TLC will improve it greatly. Are you keeping the nice patina personality or total makeover?

Tim, nice pictures you have as well!

I may make an effort and go up the hill and take a look!

Sensational Saturday Washington, Tim, Ken, Preston, Ken, Kenny, Steve and all the crew. Another stellar day in my part of West Virginia with plenty of bright warm sun, warm breeze and 76°!
I hope Ma Nature is being kind to you as well.

Used my metal lathe to turn some wood today. We had a busted handle on a garden digging fork. We could not find a replacement, so I got one that was close, turned the end down to the right angle, it's as good as new!

Evening Tim and crew. Pretty handy making the handle. I would have had to use a draw shave!

Thanks. I am going to restore the truck and do a paint job on it. Just got the bed removed. Gonna pressure wash the rust off the frame and paint it.

Maria and I drove up to the top of Chelan Butte this evening, no comet or Northern Lights but it was a good time. I took my good camera but forgot to get the SD card out of the computer. I did manage to take a couple photos with my phone that don't look to bad. I wanted to get up there in the daylight but didn't make it. Here are a couple of the good ones, looking down on the lake.
