    Oh I would love to, but it’s my wife’s haha. She’s been learning how to “wheel” a bit and turn on the locker and 4wd out here on the main trail. She won’t do any of the harder climbs yet, but it probably won’t be long haha I love driving it. Even on 33’s its really fun and capable. I think it’d make a good camping/exploring vehicle when the kids are older.

    LMAO. My wife has a 2009 4Runner that I'm expressly forbidden to mod. It's bone stock with the running boards still attached.

    A few months ago she comes in the house after going "exploring" on local trail. She been with me on the same trail plenty of times in my wheeling rig. The convo went like this:

    Her: "I think I want bigger tires and those slider things. Can you do that?"

    ME: :spending:

    Relocated the back hose spigot so it will dump on the new patio. Just tied it in under the sink to make things easy.

    Supervisor had to offer assistance.

    Painting the bumpout that hasn't been painted since the PO installed it in 2015.

    I'm letting it dry a bit, then I have a couple knot/wood borer bee holes to fill and then another coat of paint or 3.

    On French patio doors with the blinds between the glass, when we raise or lower the blinds they are very noisy like something is rubbing or needs greased/oiled. The slide to raise and lower them is magnetic and not physically attached to the mechanism inside. Is there any way to quieten these things down?

    doors like these:
