I wish I could get mine ready to go out and play. Mine is getting ready to go back to work for the summer. I flag 14 to 19 hrs/day, 6 to 7 days/week, so I rarely get time to do much other than work, eat, sleep and shower during the summer.

The weather here is awesome, in the high teens and sunny every day.
Way too much high winds but that helps with the drying, we had plenty of snow this winter and a real wet fall.

Im back racing horses. The Blue Pearl gave me a scare 2 weeks ago. Raced my mare at Western Fair grounds. Pulled in and was leaking diesel. Minor hole in the line. But Pretty well and paid for the repair she was second.
A month before that pulled out of Flamboro Downs and she quit. Cam shaft sensor.
Dam it was cold that day. 735,000 klm and still going.

My brother has an 87 Nissan Pathfinder with 761 000 kms. Original engine, transmission, axles. My Dad bought it new and it only left him stranded once around 500 000 kms when the coil died. The only major work its had would be timing belts and clutches. I don't think it would make it to Ontario though in one piece as it is tired. He's now replaced it with a 2003 Nissan Frontier. I tried to have him get a Ford but no luck.
