More progress!
And when I got back to the truck, my phone had some news to share:

Which is probably why my work boots look like this:

Wow - you're busy as a beaver! :shock:
My latest wood work efforts were waaaay less laborious: I added a quite simple additional "display" for the "PC museum"... :lol:

Re: A day in the life...

Coming back from Charlotte and got caught in the worst snow in years here. What made it worse is that it was right at the spot where we have to go up a huge mountain with 8 - 10 degree grades in spots. We actually had to stop at our daughters home to wait out the initial hammering as the area was not prepared for it. There were trucks and cars bouncing off of guardrails and each other all around us. Pictured is a military transport that jacknifed and took a few cars with it. We got past that, hung out for a few hours then crossed all our fingers and toes and headed over the mountain.

Re: A day in the life...

What's really odd is we had 70s and monsoon rain for days prior. It's been chaotic weather this winter.

Re: A day in the life...

this has been parked here for a week. finally drove by and scopped out the situation. im pretty sure it's owned by a homeless person who is probably living out of it. neat to see though

IIRC a buddy of mine lived out of his T3 Squareback for some time back in '88... :o

This is what an oil change looks like in 23° weather.
