I couldnt stand it anymore! It wasnt snowing so I took the van out of the garage and made a run down the road. Got some mud up the sides off the tires but I was smiling. Between the new door seals and insulating the DH,,it's alot quieter of course now I can hear some other noises
that I need to check on. lol... Doing the waiting game on some interior stuff so I tidied up some wiring and topped the fluids. Come on spring !!

Real strange story how i caught her.... I was tubbing with my nephews buddy in this mountain lake in south east Oklahoma. It just finished a big down pour. I threw this small 1/4 size spinner bait and she nailed it and wrapped the line around a underwater tree stump...CRAP so I hit the button and released some line and prayed she untangled herself....she did and I reset the hook. My biggest fish ever.... My wife drives up to the camp and tells me my grandfather just died. It was the same time that I caught the fish...crazy!
Well I have not kept another fish.... like you if I get one bigger I will keep it. Most of the time I catch and release

Oh my, scarry.
spent a couple evenings now working on stuff that wasn't even on my list on things to do. I parked the van in my garage when I got home and went over to My girl friends for the night, next day after work I checked in on the old girl and my garage was flooded with gas....bad glue job on tank let go. So pulled out the tank and sent it in for repair and inside coating. Openned up the rear brakes, the pads are good but the cylinders and emergency cables are hooped big time. I found new cylinders today locally but no luck on the cables, might have to have them custom made.
