I mean you seen my setup i can fit one in my garage and one behind my garage and one on the pad behind that but that's about it lol. I wouldn't mind a couple of ppl coming over to work on stuff but cant have like 10 trucks at my house lol.

 

I don't have a garage yet, but I do have 4 acres and nothing planted yet. Only bad thing it's not around Birmingham.

 

Happy pie day! ​

 

we use to celebrate that in math class all the time lol

 

Mmm now you have me wanting a peanut butter pie .

 

good afternoon Barrie.

 

Just seen on the news it not the edible PIE but the PI equation. But anyway I'm still craving the edible Pie.

 

Oops I meant pi! My bad, spelling sucks. I won’t be celebrating national spelling day.

 

But I WILL be celebrating pie day too when it gets here.

 

Found a mesh jacket on fb for $60, still smells new. I don't really think I'll be racing anywhere on the Rally though

 

You can wear it racing around the yard on your lawnmower.

 

My mower is a Husqvarna

 

Not if you put some 50 mile an hour tape over the usqvarna and write HONDA on it .

 

Colder tonight

From AlabamaWX

BLUE SKY: Temperatures are 10-20 degrees below average across Alabama despite sunshine in full supply. Birmingham reports 49 degrees at 2:00p CT… the average high for today (March 14) is 67. Another freeze is ahead tonight; freeze warnings have been issued down into South Alabama. With a clear sky and light wind, we project lows mostly in the 25-35 degree range. Colder spots across North Alabama could reach the low 20s by daybreak tomorrow.



Dry weather continues tomorrow and Thursday with a warming trend. Highs will be in the 60s tomorrow, and in the 68-75 degree range Thursday. Clouds return Thursday night, and Friday promises to be a wet day with occasional rain and possibly a thunderstorm. There will be no surface based instability over most of the state, so no risk of severe storms, with the possible exception of the Gulf Coast. Rain amounts Friday will be around one inch, with locally heavier amounts.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Another shot of cold air rolls into the state Saturday. The sky becomes partly to mostly sunny, with highs ranging from the upper 40s over the northern third of the state to the 60s for South Alabama. Another late season freeze is likely Sunday morning… we project a low in the 22-32 degree range over the northern counties. Sunday will be a sunny, cool day with highs in the 50s and 60s.

NEXT WEEK: Another freeze is likely for North/Central Alabama early Monday, followed by cold rain for most of the state late Monday night into Tuesday. Drier air returns Wednesday as a warming trend begins… temperatures reach the 70s by the end of the week. See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1933: A deadly tornado outbreak affected the Middle Tennessee region, including Nashville, on this day. The outbreak, which produced five or more tornadoes, killed 44 people and injured at least 461 others. The strongest tornado, F3, cut a path through the center of Nashville. About 1,400 homes were damaged or destroyed. Windows were blown out of the State Capitol Building.

ON THIS DATE IN 2008: The SEC basketball tournament was underway in Atlanta, and Alabama/Mississippi State was in overtime when a loud roaring sound was heard. Television announcers said that it sounded like a freight train. Lights and catwalks in the Dome began to sway and debris rained down inside the arena. Players on the court stopped and fans in the upper levels of the arena began to panic. No one knew what was going on. There were no public address announcements about the severe weather outside until well after the storm had hit.

The court was cleared and order restored, but outside, the scene was like that of a war zone. Damage was widespread. An F2 tornado had struck downtown Atlanta. The tornado damaged not only the Georgia Dome, Philips Arena, the CNN Center, and the Omni Hotel, but it blew windows out of downtown hotels, cars, and buildings and even caused the collapse of several buildings. In the nearby historic Cabbagetown district, several homes and buildings were destroyed. Over fifty homes were destroyed and the Cotton Mill lofts were heavily damaged.

Tragically, one person was killed in the tornado in a collapsed building. Thirty were injured in the tornado

 

Sun's down and it's starting to get a little chilly here.

I'm still around just been really busy. Cut up a tree for my mom, built a room on my sisters house, been wiring my son's garage, meter base, breaker box, hook up through the roof, three welder plugs, thirteen 110 outlets, 9 lights inside, two outside, air compressor and heat and air. Passed the final electrical inspection. We hung all the sheet rock and got it muddled in. In between that I been finishing a few odds and ins on the brown Samurai. I still check in here, just hadn't had time to chat much.
