Good Morning CGs!

Another chilly start to the morning. I know we got some rain last night so that contributed to it. Supposed to warm up today a little but maybe more rain so I'm not sure.

Stopped over at the neighbor's house last night for a beer. Haven't seen him all summer. His business has really been booming which means working 12 hours a day. He's been like a ghost. It was nice to sit down, relax, and chat a bit.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

ANOTHER UNSEASONABLY NICE MORNING IN THE NATIONS. WE REALLY DID NOT HAVE MUCH SUMMER AND NOW I'M WONDERING IF WE'LL HAVE AN EARLY FALL.

DARLING WIFE BACK HOME FROM COLORADO, EVERYTHING BACK TO NORMAL.

"Only in cloud-cuckoo land … could people claim that the government still discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President, a black Attorney General and roughly 20% of the federal workforce is black while only 14% of the population is black 40+% of all federal entitlements goes to black Americans - 3X the rate that go to whites, 5X the rate that go to Hispanics!"

Morning guys...Sunny and cool in the mountains this morning. Headed out to the golf course in a little bit to get the round in a little earlier as we have church this afternoon.

Tomorrow we'll pack up and head back home to reality.

....dang that reality, it always gets in the way.....have a good round Tom....

My reality is to fix the GS today and Mow about a 100 acres of lawn...the main problem of fixing the door latch is getting the interior trim pieces out of the way. There are two screws holding the part on but first you have to dig your way down to it.......which I guess is not uncommon with a lot of fixes.....

Cloudy but muggy here and still no rain.......rain dang it.........

Have a joyful weekend Guru's.......

Greetings! I put a massive dent in my pillow overnight. Yesterday the weather geniuses said that today would be a Top-10 Weather Day. Why, then, is it cloudy, with the weather weenie at full droop? Perhaps the weather judges have lowered the bar.

Enjoy your day, Gurus!

I was out trimming some shrubbery, when a bee stung me on the nose. Then he flew into my shirt and stung my arm. He is deceased now. Since there are any number of his cousins still flying around there, I think I'll just wait for a nice, crisp fall day to finish up.

Dang those Bees.....I recommend alcohol to combat the pain and mini donuts to make you feel better......and a nap....

I wish Matt......but then you would get tired of me out in your pool while you were slaving over my hot Corvette....I would bring my own N/A's though.....Orrrr....you could move out here to a quiet village where there are always plenty of jobs and partake in the Good Life....just thinking out loud.

Got the new door latch in and it all went well after I finally figured out how to undo the trim.....the service manual wants you to take off the door sill trim piece which I take to mean the nice chrome GS piece I installed awhile back. They even go into great detail on how to replace with a new one. Dumbasses....that has nothing to do with the process.....its the interior door sill trim piece that they mean.....that one really stumped me for awhile and I got no help on the other forums....

After I figured that out and got the trim off it was just replace the old with the new and now everything works just like the good old days. It would take about a 1/2 hour to do one now that I know the secrets.....I took a bunch of pics to put together a how to on the process......

Now clean it up get a burger and nap then head for Church....niiice!

The golfing is done for the week....It was a pretty day for it, Rosie took some photos, but I refuse to put them on here, because someone will make fun of me playing with my golf sandals and socks.... The front nine we had the course all to ourselves, (Rosie doesn't play, she just rides along) taking our time, I was hitting the ball long and straight. Shot 3 over par 39, darn good for me. Back nine they teamed me up with a "kid" (maybe 25), started out pretty good but I think fatigue started to set in and ended up with a 45 (bogey round)....84 ain't bad though. I'm resting now while Rosie went over to the rec center to swim. Church in a couple hours, so maybe I'll take a little nap.

Good evening gang.

Sorry to hear your getting back t reality Tom.
Today started out ok but muggy. I got the rest of my pipes insulated and rewrapped. About the time I finished that project it started raining. Tomorrow I think I'll start to work on the garage.

AS FOR THE WIFE I SUGGEST BRIBERY, MINE LIKES A LOT OF WINDOWS; I FOUND HER A PLACE WITH SO MANY WINDOWS YOU CAN HARDLY FIND A PLACE TO HANG A PICTURE.:-)

TODAY WAS GRACED WITH A WORLD-CLASS TWO HOUR NAP. LIFE IS GOOD.
