Good Morning CGs!

Middle of the month already! I met my most recent goal. I had the car fired up last night, although briefly. Having a little trouble with the timing, but just need to work out the bugs. Not sure if I'll get to work on it tonight, there is a village block party at the park down the street tonight at 6 pm, which we are planning on attending if it doesn't get rained out.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

Greetings! Another soggy day here - it has rained 13 out of 15 days in June so far. They're saying it's supposed to be 83 and sunny tomorrow, but I think they're just saying that to keep people from jumping off the balcony. Gonna go see Denis Leary tonight, should be a fun show.

Congrats on getting the car fired up, Matt - baby steps!

Have a good day, everybody!

Good morning gurus.....

Moved a step ahead yesterday and got the daughters stuff out of the trailers and into the storage unit....that after my 6 hour drive home. Today I have counter tops to finish up installing and I need to build another one. Then I have some cabinets to install (might very well be tomorrow). Two computers sitting here to work on, a visit for a possible cabinet job and set up a computer for another. When I take a few days off things really pile up fast.

Matt, congrats on the fireup, you'll have it ready for driving around shortly. Brad that show sounds like a good time.

It's been a bit unusual weather-wise here. Looking at mid 80's today with a good chance for rain. Let it happen, we'll take rain whenever we can get it.

Matt -- Congrats on the start-up! I loved that first turn of the key... will it or won't it? Then.....Vrooom Vroom!!
What a great sound that is.

We are getting some really hot sticky weather these past few days, although the weekend is supposed to be clear so I hope the humidity escapes a bit.

We are now getting ready for our first autocross of the year on July 11th. We did one last year and hopefully will actually get two or three more in this year. We are just learning as a club and getting a pretty good response from the local car guys.

Hope you all have a great day!

Greetings, Gurus!

My condolences, Rick.

I'm having computer troubles today, and that just deranged my day and original intentions.

Brad - sounds like a fun show. Can't wait to hear about it!
