if she has passed then go to the cemetery. This picture of my mom and I was taken probably 30 years ago. I nicknamed her Lead Foot Lil. She was 4'10 but had a heavy foot. Driving at a buck 20 or faster on the highway. (speed limit is 100km) R.I.P.

I lost mom back in 09 and knew I would be busy this weekend so we went to the 3 cemeteries and saw all the relatives last weekend.

That was when I lost my mom CF. Sept 15/09. She was ready to go and in the early stages of dementia. Just glad it wasn't cancer or some other terrible disease. She got pneumonia and that took her. Anyway, I still have lots of good memories and tons of pictures.
 
Been a busy day today guys. My wife did her thing in the garden and I did the grass, trimmed and cleaned up. Been a gorgeous day. Ribs in honey garlic sauce for supper and cherry pie for dessert. You wouldn't believe the smell.

Nice place you have Mark lots of work done there.
Any chance of getting a piece of that cherry pie.
 
Finally got the engine out of my sons 2003 4X4 van.
Gonna send GM a picture of me and my sons bare *** letting them know how happy we are that there engineers gave little thought about taking an engine out without pulling the body off the frame.
Smart people are stupid and would love to take the old engine and stuff it up there back side.
 
I got all the cars running and moved them so the grass dont die under them.
Around here the grass grows real fast and is hard to kill even with a car sitting on it. So we try to get the cars fixed before the grass covers them.

Fred that must be a Astro van eh.

No a 6.0 in a 1 ton Van was put together by Quigley. he has 9 kids not enough room in a mini van. and an astro van would still be a pain to take apart but not as bad I think.
If I was a monkey and had all the right tools then it would be no problem. But that front deferential was in the way and gonna buy a 15mm wabaley socket to put it back together.
I got to give you gear heads a high 5, I can't stand on my head long enough to take a bolt out and I'm a small guy.
Next time he needs an engine we are gonna bring it to you Biff.
 
going to bed you guys have a good night.
And Biff not trying to give you a hard job to do just think you would be better at doing the work.

Thanx Fred , I did an engine swap in an a.w.d. Astro van years ago basically you un hook everything and drop everything out the bottom was shitty , I’m getting grumpy in my old age and only want to do jobs that are in and out hammer and nails stuff . But still get stuck doing **** work you know how it goes, like skinning a rusty ford with filler you don’t like it but you do it anyway! Cheers ttyl.
