Stop in for a cup of coffee

I fall in that category. Maybe I’m too old school for my age.

As an old school member.
I believe my generation has failed to continue the American Dream to the future Generations.
I do Agree though
Term limits and bring back capitol punishment.
This country is screwed. Sad to think of all the sacrifices , many the of the past generations have made . Some the ultimate sacrifice. I don't believe you would find many happy with the current mess.

Today is the anniversary of the EF-5 tornado that hit Parkersburg north of here back in 2008. This is a 10 year anniversary. I was there the next day. Unbelievable. The neighbor lived through the center of it with a dozen other people sheltering in a walk in cooler in a bar. The building was destroyed but they all survived with very minor injuries.

10 year? Need to check your math buddy. LOL

I should have added the word "video". The tornado was in 08. The video I posted was in 18'.

Only the truly diluted.

anyway, I can’t find an affordable flight to Carlisle, 1800 bucks round trip plus 450 for a rental!

I don't think we will make it either. Tim probably won't be happy, he wanted me to bring out his rally wheels. If he's driving out he may need to travel a little north and pick them up here.

I figure between fuel , hotels, food , etc. I will spend around 4k to do Mopars in The Park and Carlisle.

I can get them to him if you want.
Will you be at Mopars in the park?

I should be at MITP. Do you have room?

Moving along on my bathroom(s) project. Downstairs toilet was also leaking. I don't think I will need to move the upstairs one to set the tub, but figured I better fix that first just in case. Of course, nothing simple. Old plastic flange was damaged. Got a stainless ring and tapcon screwed it down. Floor was level, but toilet rocked front to back. Found the porcelain base was not flat... Decided to just set it in a bed of leveling goop. I did notice a hairline crack in front, but not an immediate problem, so will probably move other one down and get a new one upstairs eventually.

Yes . Just have to grab two fenders from Keith, plenty of room for the wheels.
Wonder Woman can sit in my lap while I drive if extra space is needed.

At 3 ft 7 " she doesn't take up much room.

Honestly I'm not sure yet.
He did say to tell you hello.

Well, if you get the amount you posted on your Rally wheels you will have it covered 5.000.00 5 grand .

Sucks that your South Pacific adventure got cut short. Good to see you back in one piece after your fishing trip with the giant sea turtles.

He'll of a story to tell. About the cancelled portion of our cruise. Tomorrow. Too tired now...

 

[Tooljunkie]

Some more patches on Firebird. Owner says clean enough, knocked down the loose paint. Sprayed rust convertor and will clean firewall tomorrow. Should be able to blacken it by the end of the day.

Been raining a couple days and will continue until noon tomorrow. Lots of flooding around but we are fine living on the high ground.
Buddy showed up today and helped me install the new double oven. The last kitchen item to install, we ordered it last June.
A few small projects to finish up in the next couple weeks and I think we're done.
Done until next winter when we put a wall bar, bedroom, and bathroom downstairs. It's already plumbed and framed so won't take much.
Start back staining and varnishing windowsills tomorrow. I hope to be done with it this weekend; only 22 windows left.

Evening.

Well we are an official scratch for this years MITP. While it breaks my heart I got to stay focused on what we are trying to achieve. Depending on Zmans schedule I may get lost around Kansas City and end up on his porch. Detours are always worth it. Heck I remember once going to Omaha and ending up in Waterloo!
