    Good morning all, got to sleep in to 0630 - puppy is growing and sleeping through the night now - so the only waking points is our neighbors that like to visit at different hours of the night/morning. The bear was snooping around the house early this morning - the smell woke the boys up so the fun began - LOL.

    Heat wave here the next two days - in the mid 80's which is so not normal for us at any time of the year much less September - Snow Monday evening and a high in the low 40's on Tuesday (maybe) 90% chances of snow with a prediction of over 9" - we shall see how much actual accumulates with warm ground conditions.

    Have a great day everyeon - be safe and smart out there.

    A little something every chance we get.
    Good Morning ladies and gents. A nice 2.05" of needed rain here yesterday, and maybe some more this afternoon - promised a nice weekend after that. Sun is drying the grass, so it will be mowing time in a few, after a little more :pccoffee:.

    Don't burn the BBQ!

    Your pup is too cute! He kind of has that mischievous look puppy’s get when they are about to get into trouble and do something bratty.

    That sure ain't no Toyota. Man, that looks like fun, give us some details. Chassis, engine, etc. What track are you headed for? If I had that, the long course at Watkins Glen is where i'd want to go, if in your area. Otherwise, here in the Southeast, I'd like to turn that loose on Road Atlanta, or VIR (Virginia International Raceway). I used to race motorcycles back in the 1980's, WERA Endurance Series, and did some track days in my "somewhat modified" Miata a few years ago. Sold it to buy my Taco.

    Good morning all!! Great weather here in northeast PA. Looks like tomorrow will be nice, too.

    Installed a new 60" TV yesterday - old one was getting ready to die. Pool time today!

    Be safe out there!!

    Good morning All, congrats Mike. The puppy is crazy this morning (it is a girl) she and her brother are Zoomin in the living room. Can't wait till she is full grown and the two of them trash the house zoomin - it is definitely a Golden thing, my labs never did that. The old boy (my lab of 12 yrs) still doesn't want anything to do with her.

    Have a great day, going to be a warm day here then the change takes place starting tomorrow - snow predictions have gone up for us up here in the mtns, up to 9-12" then warms back up later in the week.

    Enjoy your Sunday and be safe.

    The track wanted all the winners from yesterday in the show.

    We got a ton of compliments on how the car ran and Bob’s driving and how it was set up. Had more than one driver ask me to help them get their car set up. This is such hi praise from your peers.

    COVID pictures suck but at this moment I couldn’t be more proud of the effort we put together.
