LOL, good plan Dave.

My FIL is taking his 09 Dodge in to the dealer tomorrow, it developed a pretty good exhaust leak somewhere on the right side of the engine last week. Not sure where it is coming from though, can't even get a finger in there to feel for a leak. Pretty sad that at 37K it has an issue like that.

I had a Mini Cooper in the shop today. 23k on it. Needed tires, brakes, and an alignment. Then an 06 Freestyle with 37k that needs a steering rack...

Sorry to hear about the wreck! Hopefully your neck won't be too sore! The worst new is that Dodge you gotta drive! Of course I am sure Lee will be happy for ya! Probably three times happier than the rest of us! LOL

Yep those awnings are a pretty cool thing! LOL Yeah I wonder what they check out for $50 bucks! LOL

It is going good tonight! Did some work in our basement that we are slowly redoing. Other than that we had a pretty uneventful evening.

Say Jase wanted to know if Payten was bringing the Mustang with this weekend? He will have his Gator here.

Good deal! Yeah we still have renters but we are starting to work in the other part of the basement a little now. Would like to be able to use it this winter as a play room for Jase if we can.

Yeah, it sounds like a great weekend is shaping up!

Gotcha on the basement. That would be nice for the winter. Always good to have a separate place.
