    Hope the eye exam went ok.

    Take it slow, speed limit, leave room between you and the car in front of you and, if you can, downshift when going down hills. You should be OK. BTW I have the same problem with my truck. My wife has never liked my truck and never will. ;)

    Went to the local clinic yesterday, seems I have pink eye and an ear infection. picked up some eye drops and an antibiotic tablet. Eye is better this morning, but ear is still stopped up.

    Today we are getting rid of the pond rock, then it is just a project to fill the hole before fall so the soil can level down before we level up the hole. Or at least that is the plan.

    Oh yes, we are cooking a breakfast fatty this morning on the EX6.

    Agree with Ms. Susan! Rent a small U-Haul van, and THEN she will appreciate the luxury of your truck! Nothing like a U-Haul!

    Here’s the perfect solution, buy a new Tacoma with tow package. You can tow the the trailer in comfort. Don’t tell your wife, just surprise her. And please let us know her reaction when she see’s the surprise. Do a video from surprise to when the paramedics take you away.:rofl:

    U-Haul rents pickup trucks too.
    Costs a little bit but is safe and easy, return to point of origin rentals are not all that expensive either.

    When I was younger I used to kid myself I could scale pretty much any fence unscathed; however, today here in Manchester, UK, I encountered the FYUF ('eff You Up Fence), and now I feel the need to reevaluate the hubris of my youth.

    I think here that would be illegal since they could seriously hurt themselves trying to break into your property..

    I'd happily take my chances; you want my catalytic converter? Good luck with that. :)

    This morning around 8:30AM MDT I was in my backyard and heard what I thought was an atomic bomb going off. The sound bounced off the mountain ranges for 30-40 seconds and it rattled the house. The Governor said the military wasn't doing any training exercises nor did any explosions get reported. It turned out they are thinking it was a meteor. It was heard from Utah to Southern Idaho. I've never heard anything like that. I originally thought there was an airplane explosion above my house and looked up to see if something was heading down toward us. Pretty weird.

    I was hoping you'd say California is finally breaking off and falling into the ocean. But I'd get to see that from here.

    Evening all:

    [QUOTE="knayrb, post: 27687799, member: 32473, I got a round of golf in this morning. I own a double eagle 35 years ago but not a hole-in-one. I came within 6” of an ace today. Damn! Hopefully I’ll get one soon. [/QUOTE]

    Darn, that's close :(, you know, the more you play the more chances you have at making that elusive hole in one, keep at it! :)
