Good, it is raining again. My trees need it, but you basically can not do much in the rain...without getting wet.

Good to see you're getting the rain you want.

No rain here in 21 days but we are still 17" above normal for the whole year.

Good morning Warren,

Looks like I got up on the green side of the grass again. Ain't life great.
Here it is 5 am here and you are almost ready for lunch!

Everyone have a great rest of the day - I'm just starting mine.

Hi Flip and others.

Just found a product for the guest bathroom.

trularin · #**4948** (**permalink**) 10-02-2007, 08:48 AM

Okay, tech tip: do not use the restroom at Warren's house.

SNOW!?!?! SNOW!?!

I didn't wish snow on you, but NOOOoooooo.... you had to wish snow my way.

Tru,

Our weather is just perfect the last two days. Can I borrow your Cobra as you won't be needing it for another several months as you are going to have record snows this Winter. And you can come out here to work on it so you don't feel you are missing something.

Ron

Boy, I'm getting tired from all the nice Cobra rides.

The weather this fall has been unreal. After working for 3 hours around the yard cleaning weeds and dead stuff out of the planting beds, I had to refresh my internal batteries with a 2 hour ride.
Edited because I deleted many pics from my gallery.

Nice sunset too ....

Forecast is for the next 6 days to be sunny with high temp between 72 and 80°F.

Tru - that toilet paper is reserved for Mother-in-Laws.

Aaah a few hints

Ron61 · #**4953** (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 07:21 AM

If I were going to bet, I would bet it has something to do with cars.

Ron

wtm442 · #**4954** (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 08:29 AM

Fog, fog, go away
I want to go for a ride today

trularin · #**4955** (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 08:55 AM

Carnival and fog, yup, things are normal.

trularin · #**4956** (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 09:02 AM

All this time Warren has been telling us he is not married, yet he has TP for mother-in-laws.

Hmmmm.....

Warren, do you wish to explain this?

wtm442 · #**4957** (**permalink**) 10-03-2007, 10:29 AM

Nope

Beam me up Scottie!

Congrats Tru on your 5,000 th post. You are 1/2 the man of Ron at 10K posts.

Just got back from a drive with the 69 and all kinds of problems. First when I started to open the drivers side door from inside the little lever you pull on wouldn't work. Got to locking and it has two hinges on each side and a pressed in pin that holds it. I don't know how the pin could have came out as there is barely enough clearance for me to see between the end and the side of the unit that holds it, but it was not only out but gone. Took the whole unit off and hunted through my nuts and bolts until I found a screw that would go in that side as fortunately it is the side that has the holes all the way through. The other side the pin is pressed in and there is no opening on the back side or anything to go through. If this screw will hold good and if not I will take the thing off and see if I can get a small bold and then I will have to grind the nut down on one side as the darn hole is almost right on the bottom. Then I decided to open it up in 3rd and blow out the cobwebs and the darn rev limiter was still stopping me at 5500. I set it at that when the motor was first done so I wouldn't be running it to fast but had since set it up to 6200. According to the papers all you have to do to change it is take a jewelers screw driver and turn the 1000s switch to whatever you want it and the 100s switch the same. Anyway I was limited to 5500 with it set on 6200, so when I got home I got the unit out where I could see it easy and set the dam thing to 7,000. I know it wasn't under load, but I started the car and since it was already hot I revved it up and it went right past the 6300 mark and I quit real quick. Just ran it up there for a couple of seconds. Hope it is just the little setting screws are marked a little wrong and it will rev up next time out.

Tru,

Just noticed Warren's post about your 5,000th post. Congratulations. Now Warren is really falling behind.

The only one I'm behind is Turtle!

Ron - Glad you got a ride in today. Was really foggy this morning and now its just humid and 101% overcast.

Just bought some solar powered lights at Odd Lot Warehouse. Guess I'll go out and stick them in the ground to replace my old ones that are falling apart.

Go Red Sox!
