    That tree sure has cut into my cruising time,,,,,,It was doing fine until last October during the fires,,,,,then the wind blew the top 20 feet right down onto my driveway right where I had my van parked a few minutes earlier. Nobody messes with my van so all thats left of it now is the stump,,,,,but its in the 90's here with 50 MPH winds so I got better things to do than mess with it today,,,,,,,

    I am tilling up the gardens for some winter veggies, and then cutting,splittin,& stacking some heat for the winter, then making sure to get some fishing in as well, the van will wait till I have time or a need to work on it,...oh yeah it made it 80 miles with a ton of parts/tools/engine/tranny packed in it up & down the hills here, although it didnt like the hills, but it made it nonetheless(and only pulled over 1 time to let traffic go by)!!!

    Today we found a package of hinge grommets at Harrys,,,,(probably 60-72 Chevy Suburban) and they do fit the Chevy van side and rear door. So we need to find out where they came from and see if we can find some to fit the smaller hinges on the front doors,,,,,,,,,
