    A little something every chance we get.
    Film at 8! I'll give you the featured shorts! Featuring a late start Saturday!

    First, putting that stupid screen on the bottom of the shed took me an hour and a half, and just about ruined my back and ankles bending over. Self-starting Screws would not start, and I had to drill pilot holes all around. 25' roll went all the way around and I cut off 1". When I finished, wife and son offered they could have helped me....

    Remember when I did this path over, because it was important? So, here's why. The plants are just Hibiscus babies for now, wife can plant what she wants. Which is why I tilled the sides, did the granite on the stones again, put in edging, put top soil in the trench, then filled it with planting soil, and mulched it....

    That was the 96 calorie break! Now on to the other side of the greenhouse. Similar - tilled it up to loosen it, put down a new edge, gave it some top soil, and mulched it. (No fancy soil this time) The two tomatoes are to get them out of the way of the BBQ s where they have been hiding. I confess to using another beer to help me finish!

    So, finished for the day. A celebratory beer, and tomorrow I will attack the remaining greenhouse items!

    I had a buddy ring me back some fermented shark from Iceland. That was not bad, super fishy taste though.

    Was the metal mesh around the shed to deter critters from crawling under?

    yes, and to keep the wife happy. Toads need a place to hide though; the dog is way too interested. Maybe the horned toads will come back to. We have so many geckos, they all have their own turf!

    I am a proud Scandinavian Dane, but boy howdy, I'm glad my great grandparents emigrated! I mean I know there is more fish than beef, but you have to wonder WHO dreamed some of those recipes up in the first place!

    Hey Robert (@BassAckwards), You have the URD headers right? How much of a pain in the ass is that install? I had to cut and reweld the motor mount when I did my XJ.

    Ahhhh yeah if you've already started reading that thread, things are going to get expensive.. so worth it though, i absolutely love mine
    The URD spec u headers are pretty time consuming to install. Passenger side you have to remove the SAI stuff so you can get the manifold in place. The driver side is more so though.. have to remove the steering shaft and kinda weave it in there. It sounds like a piece of cake compared to cutting and rewelding motor mounts though! Their equal length headers really make a big difference. I think its something like 23rwhp and 34rwtq

    Yep can't do it...but never heard of having whale...

    Umm hmm

    So how long you been in Luke?

    Morning Kevin

    Those are pretty good gains for that type install, always amazes me why the manufacturers don't do more on a production truck, guess they don't want to spend the R n D time.

    :hattip::hattip: Morning Kevin, Mark! And good morning everyone else SATX! Happy Mother's Day to all your moms!

    Only headers I ever did that actually installed "easily" were my 72 Pinto Wagon! Even my 67-69 Camaro Stock car was a pain! I think I'd pay someone for all the fun Tacos sound like!

    Y'all have a great day. Only some fun mechanical stuff for the greenhouse today, and running to Tractor Supply for my rain barrel.
