Me? I am on the river... near a little burg called Pomeroy
I know where that is. I used to take my boat and camp at Strouds Run State Park and fish on Dow Lake occasionally back when I lived in Cincinnati. I also used to do work at the DuPont plant a few times a year in Parkersburg WV back around 1988-1991.
 
Got rear shocks today. Almost got everything.... For the '69. Then I "just" have to put the stuff on the car!!!

I used to work in Parkersburg WV for BPD .. from 1979 to 2009. And yep, I still fish Dow Lake occasionally. Strouds Run is a nice little park. But parks in Ohio have gone downhill from what they used to be. :(

Yeah, no doubt. Last time I was Dow Lake was probably 15 years ago, just before my daughter was born.
 
Well,disappointed with the hoover dam tour.1-1/2 hour stop. 35 minutes waiting for tour to start.
The lake mead cruise was cool.
Beautiful day here in vegas.

Back to regular programming-
Im over a grand into my 318,and did the minimum. No machine work.
I expect to spend over 6 thousand,just to get it on the road,and be a driver. Nothing fancy.
 
Crazies are out in force tonight.
Same around here, I can hear my neighbors outside talking loudly and playing with their dogs. I think it is the beginning of Spring fever. It’s still 50* and it will be near 60* for the next few days.
 
Only in canada....

Back pre 911, you could do a Hard Hat tour, at hoover dam, and go into the thing, All the way to the bottom. Just another thing messed up by terrorists.

LOL. This time I meant on the forum, and the Coffee thread is a refuge. Out on the streets, my blocks been OK, but driving the past couple weeks - well you know, people are in some other zone.

It really wasn't much, but it was enough for me. One thread where a guy thinks he's really smart because he got away with stupid - so far anyway. And another with a classic Drive-by ranting by an employee of a vendor.

Oh, I don’t even notice changes in the madness on the Forum...it’s always pretty nuts. There are some real head cases out there among the threads. This place is the first forum where I’ve ever had to put some people on ignore just so I don’t see their stupidity.
 
So.. just watching a youtube video...Wrecks to Riches. Poisen Dart episode Series 1 episode 10. They put a 472 Hemi in a dart swinger, and had to cut a notch out of the oil pan to make it fit. I'm not sure it is even a Dart anymore lol. But it is amazing what they can do. Sold at auction for $60 K

My late hubby worked for ODNR-forestry... he hated the way it became more paperwork and red tape and less getting out in the forest.
About 25 years ago, I wanted to go into the PA DCNR but was talked out of it by a Ranger friend who said it was getting to be nothing more than babysitting a bunch of stupid campers/park visitors to keep them from doing damage to the park, each other, and themselves...followed by hours of paperwork about it. He resigned 3 years later and never regretted it.

If it really starts to irritate me I'll do that, or just step away for a bit, or both.
