    Thanks. My cousin is a licensed electrician. We used his ditchwitch and ran conduit underground from the house to the garage and the conduit throughout the garage. He did it all at no charge labor wise, i just had to buy the materials. He told me to let him know when i'm ready to get back on it.

    E21A650E-133D-4BEA-A93A-8FE9E5D2DB71.jpg This snow sucks. Hopefully Thursday will be better.
    Also, does anybody here have experience with retrofits? I’m wondering if they’re worth it or not.

    Ft Meade has a pretty decent shop but they’re only open 3 days a week now.
    That’s where I installed my kings.

    Yeah, they don’t run so my old roommate left them there when he moved out. It’s a pretty long story but hopefully they’ll be gone soon.

    I didn't take the factory skid plate off. It's the passenger side front mount that's up behind the wind deflector thingy.

    Well that sounds easier than I expected. I was thinking it was a more permanent mount. I'm fairly certain the threads are toast.

    This snow rocks! And retrofits are amazing. I haven't done one, but have HIDs in my daily driver Subaru. The light output is amazing.

    Welcome as always. I've been cooking since I was 8. Did it professionally a couple times. Even did some catering. I collect odd cook books and have one written by Vincent Price and his wife. I buy seasonings by the pound. Seafood though being from Maryland is one of my favorite foods. Meat is second. Although there's nothing I won't eat. Not much I haven't.

    Just like all of you, I like sharing my knowledge. I take a lot from this forum so it's a pleasure to be able to give back when I can.

    Yea, tried the vegetarian thing once. Lasted all of like two months. Guess grilling season was the worst time to try that. Although when is it not grilling season. I take a barrage of meds for high bp, high cholesterol, and diabetes. If I had a normal job/life I could exercise more but.........add to the fact that I have a low resistance to alcohol no matter what I try and I'm the poster child of how not to live.

    So you're not alone. And now I want a bacon wrapped anything!

    But here's another tip if bacon's your thing, and if you're the type that it's not, me and @Tacoma HEART don't want to know you, but if it is, I stopped frying mine and started baking it to make it more healthy. LOL did I just use bacon and healthy in a sentence? LOL

    I use a nonstick cookie cooling rack (bed bath & beyond) and place it over a sheet get pan. Thick cut bacon, fresh ground pepper, and after turning it I drizzle maple syrup over it (sugar free of course).

    Bacon at least is healthier this way.

    Used to fish religiously. My time is too limited now. No shame in learning how to buy and prepare it correctly.

    Oh, and I'm a chocoholic!

    Ok LOL now tell me you edited your original post or I am going crazy! LOL

    No, I never did fish there. Use d to fish Loch Raven reservoir back in the day. Nice bass in there.

    That's one of the great things about Maryland. Our wildlife ecosystem is so diverse. Because of its size and geographic differences, you can hunt big game one day and surf fish the next. Not many people can claim that.

    You should pick up a small John boat and then you could fish any part of the Susquehanna you wanted to. Or any part of the upper bay areas. Then, the closer you get to salt water you can expand your bounty to those species, including crabs.

    Man, if I were retired I'd so join ya! Some day......

    :cheers:
