Northern Virginia Roll Call

Easier to move by bag, slightly more per bag but lots of savings in labor down the road.

Whats your take on this: https://komonews.com/news/coronavirus/12-quarantined-kirkland-firefighters-showing-flu-like-symptoms
We are low on BSI stuff already; Germany banned export of medical equipment until further today. India just dropped a list of meds they won't export anymore either.
There goes the supply.

 

I'm looking at the CRF all-aluminum radiator for the 2nd generations. The dimensions are very close to the radiator on the 3rd gens. I'm wondering if it'll work. Anyone see/know anyone that has made it work?

 

Buy one and find out. Worse case it doesn't fit and you sell it to a 2nd gen.

 

Truuuue

 

what makes you want a new radiator?

 

Nothing in words that would justify the expense to my wife.

 

I'm a firm maybe. Just flying back in town Friday so I'll need to see if I can get a kitchen pass. Which day are you thinking? My truck is a week old and bone stock, so looking for something on the lighter side for now while we're in the getting to know you phase.

 

We were set up for Flagpole last week until the trail iced over. I'd be ok there either Saturday or Sunday. I'd like to run with someone whose done this before. My first time offroad and stock as well.

 

Who wants a bed mat for a third (or I assume second) gen? Gotta pick up in Reston tomorrow.

 

Hmmmm

 

I'm interested, but I'm out of town until Friday afternoon. Any chance I can pick it up Friday night or Saturday? I live in Herndon. If it has to be today, I might be able to get my wife to drive over and pick it up.

 

Sounds good, let me get back to you Friday evening after I return. My son is also coming home from college Friday for spring break, so that's another variable for the weekend. But my initial thought is Sunday morning would work best as long as I'm back home by 1:00. How long would it take to run up and down the flag pole?

 

How long all depends on which route you take and how fast you drive. Budget at least 4 hrs. Figure half a day from the house and back.

That point is showing 2.5 hours from Herndon, which is further away than I have time for.

 

Almost all of the good places are that far away from us

 

Anyone have a good contractor in the Haymarket area? Closing on my house in a few weeks and have some stuff I want to try and get done before we move in

 

Oh shit! Welcome to the Wild West.

What kind of work are you looking to have done?

 

Going to be adding a bedroom in the basement, so two walls and doors basically, as well as a full bathroom. All of the Drain Plumbing is pre-existent so it will be pretty easy. And then maybe install a deck but I don't know if that will be right away

 

I don't know. I've been told as fast as 38 minutes and a couple of hours. Sunday morning maybe, but afternoon is best that day. Opposite for Saturday.

 

"And then maybe install a deck but I don't know if that will be right away" - We should talk sometime. We have a deck that we are going to expand and change the trex surface on. I may have some available if it's of intereset. Won't be a tomorrow thing either.
