I like it Jake!

We had a customer at my shop we called "pomegranate" He never knew why either...

But it was what the tech and I decided was our least favorite fruit! LOL

Never been to Ely, heard it is nice. One of these days, I'll get up there. I have a friend who's parents live up there now, might have to make a trip either this winter or next summer to see their place.

And here comes the wind again.

You should make it up here at least once, but I gotta say that summer is way cooler up here. All the junk shops (gifts shops) are open and there is some neat stuff in some of them.

A buddy of mine went back to school up there and I think is in the same program maybe. Does the name Tyler Vandal ring a bell?

Howdy Jake, Chris, Mike, Jay, Troy, Lee Lee Lee, Dave and whoever else might be lurking on here. You guys have been doing a great job keeping this chapter going. I will try to get on here more one of these days. I think my pathetic life has become a Mafia War, its addicting to say the least. Hopefully now that we got the POS dilemma solved and our house is getting closer to being done. I see the surgeon on the 9th and I am going to tell him to KMA. Last but not least I am in need of some glow plugs, not sure when the next GTG is but up here in GF it was 36 after it sat all day and she blew some massive white smoke. I will get them ordered up when I get home. I also found someone who I think will fix my bumper before it starts getting any worse. He said the welds were ground down to much that is why it has 100's of pinholes in it. They will also acid wash it and powder coat it too. They actually did our railings on the new stairs in our house and they are phenomenal.........Have a good night........
