It was a little breezy here today but nothing too severe. A brief storm flew over but didn't deposit any of that strange wetness that occasionally falls from the sky. I can't remember what they call that. But we only get a couple inches a year of it, so I guess it doesn't matter. lol.

Just to cap off the evening, here's tonight's sunset, sharing my Blessings with you. Enjoy, gentlemen.
PS, stay well, Tim!

Merry Monday morning Washington, Tim, Wayne and all the crew. Looks to be a nice start to the week in my woods and hope you have the same.

It is. It's the end of what's officially known as the Burbank Slew on the McNary Wildlife Refuge, water backed up the old Snake riverbed from McNary Dam, but lake has a much prettier name. If you ever make it to the neighborhood, stop by and say hi.

Good morning Ken, Rod, Wayne and others!

Thanks for the well wishes, everyday is a little better.

It looks like it is going to be a nice day here, the sun just popped up over the hill. 38° and what I can see from inside the house, we have clear blue skies.

Good evening Washington Truckers!

I had a good day working in the shop. I had the engine and transmission setting in the Bronco frame, but I never could get the torque converter to seat. I ended up taking the transmission back out, I think I just tried to pull it in and caused a little bure and that was it. I updated the Bronco thread with a couple photos.

Thanks for checking in Bud!

Good morning Rod, Ken and the rest the group.

Looks like it's going another good day out West also. It's currently 40° and mostly sunny.

Thanks Steve,

I'm not all the way back to normal yet, working outside today in the cool windy conditions I still have a cough. It won't be long now!
