I'm sorry Frank, I enjoyed your wife's company when I was over there.

What I see from this discussion, is that most of us don't sleep well.  I see those shows late at night.

Yesterday I started putting the ac in my Impala. I am putting and underdash unit in it. The replacement style takes away the air vents and I like having them.  The condenser is for my car specifically (vintage air) and it fits great, and the instructions are right on. My back is telling me that I should have quit sooner though.  A couple of weeks and I should be done. Also going from and underdash radio, to a replacement in the dash.

Trying to stay warm, it is 23 below right now. Wonderful Canadian air blowing down. Should be ok in a couple of weeks.

Finally recovered from my trip home from the Roadster Show. We were supposed to have a 2 hour layover in Seattle on Monday morning after the flight from Ontario. In the air they canceled the flight to Bozeman. We got to Seattle and stood in lines until they moved our flight from Tuesday back to late Monday. The flight kept getting later and later, then canceled about 9:00 pm. Finally got out Tuesday about noon. Not a lot of fun.

That vid just showed up on my list, but had not watched it yet.  Really interesting. I liked how he said they could, at a reasonable price and time put out parts that a shop could use that did not have anyone with the ability to hammer out a part. Reasonable being a relative term.

I screwed my blade dispenser to the door frame right next to my walk in door.  I have 10 or 15 tape measures and still can't find the some times. When I can't find the tapes, it is time to clean the shop.

Yesterday we went down to Townsend (population 2000) southwest of helena for their Fall Fest.  325 cars was the official count and not to long after I got there, I saw this car driving in.  Many of you probably remember it from lots of magazine coverage.  The young guy that brought it said he had been watching it since he was a kid.  A couple of months ago, his brother called him up and said that car he had always talked about was on Bring a trailer.  So he managed to get it, and it now lives just east of me. Sorry I cannot get my picture to load, so sent you all to the web page of the car,

The little town I live in has only Post Office Boxes.  This causes much problems with ordering on line, since most don't let you know how they are going to deliver.  The only time I get a notice ordering, is when the vender says they can't deliver to a PO Box.  Most of the time the Post Office here will not transfer a street address to the PO box, so the stuff gets tossed, yes, that is what they do, not send it back to the sender.  So I makes sure I get tracking on everything and run to the PO as soon as tracking shows arrival.  One of the guys told me to put #xxx after the street address on everything.  xxx is my po box.  Things are working much better now since I have started adding that.

I gave my wife superclean for the stove vent, she loves how well it works.
