It was pretty foggy this morning and about 23 degress, looks like it will be about 40 out there now at noon. Not much in the way of projects going on, just working on the kids race cars.

Mid 40's here today, with some high clouds. I have to work on a custom sprayer that I built for a farm down the road for the next 2 days ( $1,600 for 2 days work) then it's on to working on the boat!

Allen, how about some pics and info on the kids race cars? In fact why don't you start a new thread about it! I'm sure that the other members would love to see what you and the kids are doing.....I know I would
