Summer started today

Now the daytime hours start getting shorter and I still haven't gotten the things done that I was going to do this Spring.

On top of that, it will be hot for the next couple of months and the skeeters will bite when the sun goes down.

Guess I'll just have to go swimming or fishing.

there is a list of things I have allowed myself the whole summer to get done, but it doesn't seem like any of them have gotten done.

Same here, I was convinced that I would be camping every other weekend. So far.....once

Not to mention the awesome fact that our Nitro's A/C compressor is busted (under warranty) but they can't replace it since apparently there is not a single replacement unit on the continental United States?

Oh well, I was always told that sweating it out was healthy so I should be healthy in no time at all if the weather keeps up!

It's not a Jeep or Dodge thing, it must be a Chrysler thing!

SHe could drive mine I love it!! and I never ever thought I would buy one... Mines a little older, but it would give her a Size relationship-- I would like a sport track or an edge.

the new little rangers look pretty awesome, there was one running around manhattan here a few days ago, that was decked out with all the eye catching accessories, and one mean sounding motor.

No enclosed cargo room, definite no go. They have seemed to step up the style department in the last few years for them though.

I'm really liking the look of the newer Ford Escape, verah nice!

The humidity is 5000% and I'm hating it. On the flip side I'm getting hours and that's all that matters.
