Hopefully my truck is done this week, it's in the body shop getting the dent on the bed and some rust fixed. The window regulator in my old F150 broke yesterday, dammit that truck has no A/C.

And yes indeed Justin, I had a sun shower (brief light rain) help wash the soap off my van.
Right now its a blazing sun here.

Went through last summer with only the passenger door window working, ditto no A/C.
Bought the 2004 Expedition with A/C last November.

I spent most of the day cleaning out my EBP valve and pipe, which should only take an hour or 2 at most, but instead took me half a day because every 30 minutes the sky would open up with a new thunder storm. It would rain cats and dogs for like 5 minutes, then stop again. The sun would then pop out, 10 - 15 minutes later the water all disappeared giving me 10 - 20 minutes at a time to be useful. Ugh. Just make it all stop already.
What are your plans???

Hi Ken:
Last night I ran the computer's liquid coolant system for the first time and no leaks.
So in-between other weekend activities I'll start wiring up my computer without the SATA HDDs, I'll just use an old PATA HDD left over from one of my daughter's long ago PC's.
Already today, I washed my Van and added a few more stickers.
Tomorrow is a church picnic at a parishioner's home with a pool.
Sunday is an extended family picnic after morning church service.
