The Orange suite was fun to stay in.
I agree! Next time I'd like to stay in a cabin too! It's supposed to be 70 tomorrow here in Alabama. I'm not used to that cold weather yet. After I come up there a few more times maybe I'll get used to it!

Looks great @Hyakkimaru !!! The new headlights will make that a totally different truck. Good work man!!

The Caboose and the other camping cabins will have heat. Working on a wood burning stove to go in the Redwood Shed and looking at Tipis that can have an open fire in them...

I used the front facing USB to transfer data (images, video, FSL logs, etc) to or from the ATOTO head unit.

I am often very different than others though, so there is that. Select a product or model that you will be happy with.

Regarding the proposed date of President's Day in February (19 - 21 holiday weekend), that could work out well. Our track record with the early spring like that has been a bit "trying" with the weather at times. Y'all know what I am saying...

Although, the next holiday weekend is not until Memorial Day weekend at the end of May.

Is a holiday weekend easier for people or is it just a "normal" weekend for anyone other than federal (some state) employees?

I appreciate you both!

The phone call functions connect via bluetooth and works great. The one in the truck I drove up there is a Pioneer flip-up single DIN I originally bought for my 96. That's the one I want to replace because the Android Auto in it is not as good as in the Sony...yes, I got spoiled! Wish I already had it because I'm driving to Nashville tomorrow to deliver my litter of puppies.

I'm quite excited myself. I put the auto A6 pro with gesture control in my Amazon cart and when I went to order it it says they do not carry it anymore. I went to a tados website and they wanted $150 more than Amazon for the same unit. I'm going to wait till Amazon gets it back or find one on eBay or something.

As for February, the date is fine with me. Being your own boss means any day can be a holiday. Most shippers and receivers are closed on national holidays.

Took my bumper back off and put one more coat of paint before three coats of clear coat. Also painted my grill and my Ford emblem. My Ford emblem had been so faded you could barely read that it said ford so it turns out the blue part of the Ford emblem comes out and it leaves a Chrome emblem that says Ford. I used masking tape and cut out the Ford letters and left Chrome letters on a black emblem. I think it looks pretty nice myself.

Thank you much! At some point I'm going to put my head unit and tow mirrors on. I'm going to wait a little while for them though and distribute the hit on the funds a bit
