Wow Frank.  I'm really sorry to hear about the accident. It sounds like you got banged up pretty good. All on top of your wife starting dialysis...wow.
I hope you have a way to make your appointments and things get better for both of you.

I'll be there Saturday but I have a doctor appointment at 1:00 on Friday and will probably miss that day.

I've been using a battery adapter to use Dewalt 20V batteries in Craftsman 19.2V tools. They work good and have a usb port that comes in handy. https://shorturl.at/e7vXO

I watched the Project Farm video on batteries too and if I remember right, he doesn't show a way to tell if you're buying counterfeit or not. I guess we just have to buy from the big stores and trust that they've done their homework.

I'll look for that pic John and PM it to you if I find it.

Phil, sorry to hear about your medical problems. I've heard that a collapsed lung is really painful. Hang in there.
Thanks for posting the pic of the old truck. I spent a lot of time in the driver's seat and made lots of really good memories. Good to know it's still plugging along.

You never fail to amaze, Bill. Another awesome build!

It's great to hear that Hooley is still up to his old self and having fun. I hope to be part of the old farts gathering to help out at Bonneville soon.

It's really sad to hear about Sam. He knew a lot and was good at what he did.

Sold all my stuff at the swap and had a little time to hang with the RRT group. Great weather and friends.

I'm planning to be there but I've got a trailer full to sell at the swap meet.

We lost another good one...sad.

I only knew him from Bonneville but he was a kind hearted, talented man

^^^ Well said Chimp. Sad to see people pass that were examples of what you can do with enough determination. Breedlove was definitely an inspiration to many. RIP

As sort of a tribute I just watched the '64 video again of his first 500mph run and crash...The Wildest Ride.

I want to thank everyone that hangs out here and especially those that post regularly. I'm more of a reader than a poster nowadays.

I don't have an active car project right now and all of my energy is going towards finishing what I've started at the cabin while I still can. It's going to be my legacy that I'll leave to this world and my vision hasn't quite been finished yet.

I'm not visible here but I'm still lurking.

I bought this handheld vacuum last fall to use at the cabin where I don't have electricity. It has become one of my favorite and most used Dewalt tools for home and cabin.

It's very powerful, handy, has just the right attachments, is easy to empty, and a charged battery lasts a long time. I paid $110 at Amazon. (#DCV501HB)

Sue's getting tired of me saying "I love my little vacuum" every time I use it.

Sandy Claws? I think I met her once...

Have a Merry Christmas everyone!
