    There's a restaurant near us that makes an award winning tortilla soup. Last time we ate there I was able to get the last of the batch. Between the soup and the ribs it was one of the best meals I ever had. :)

    Happy Sunday everyone! Headed to Church this morning. During our service, we have what is called a 'personal devotion' moment. This is a silent moment when you talk to God, one on one. One of my favorite parts. This morning I will pray for my TW Brothers and Sisters. Prayers for TW member's and their family's health and healing, prayers for patience @ home and @ work, prayers for new beginnings and the strength and wisdom to face the unknown. Thanks for keeping us all safe, for all our blessings, our jobs and new opportunities, the roof over our head, food on our tables, and heat in our walls. Forgive us for our sins. Amen

    Morning friends!

    I cleaned up the basement a bit yesterday making a pile of stuff to donate. Now I have to find someone to come and pick it up when I'm here. The truck is still dirty and, with rain tomorrow, it's going to stay that way.

    For all that are sick. Here's to hoping you rebound quickly. I spoke to the man upstairs at vigil services last night for you.

    Doug, please put in a good word for me. I need all the help I can get.

    I saw that pic and thought it looked like she lost her mind.

    Thanks. It's 19 yo nephew of a guy I work with, and his hunting buddy. Great family.

    A friend showed me a concrete sailboat in the Merrimack river in Mass.
    Said to have been built by a MIT professor.

    When I was in college, the Civil Engineering kids had to build a concrete canoe to race against the other New England schools.

    I have KO-1's on the Tacoma and K-Bro2's on the F'n'J.

    I went up one size on the F'n'J when I lifted it to 275-17's.
    No issues with either.
    Always have had good luck with the original KO's on my full size trucks and have been using them for at least 25 years. Got 70k from one set.

    Seriously, I've never noticed any road noise at all from my KO2s.

    I've got the howly rear-diff noise that seems to be common in the TRD ORs, that's the only annoying noise I get, and even that is only from 54-62 MPH-ish.

    Maybe I'm getting old and my hearing isn't so great anymore, but even my wife has never mentioned any tire noise at all.
