How are you Bill?

 

I skipped the standard therapy the DR sent me home with, and went with Mr. Miagi's shoulder therapy by washing the wife's 19 Highlander after getting her a new head unit. Kinda wished I had done the regular therapy. After 2 tequilas and a white claw at dinner, I had to break down and ask the wife for a Naprosyn. Only second "pain" pill I've taken since 5/15.
This morning I"m dragging, but about to head out for a couple mile walk to warm up, then the standard therapy before wax on/wax off the beetle.

 

Then you were in my neck of the woods also. I live about a mile from the Skyline Drive entrance in Front Royal. Glad you had a good trip!

 

My dad and I hunted Elk in Grand Teton park in October/November 2000 for 30 days. About once a week we would air out our sleeping bags. Clothes laundry we did in Jackson when we went on a grocery store resupply run. This was originally taken with a disposable 110 instant camera, so not the best quality.

 

Cleaned up the shop today. couldnt find crap as it was all spread out. took 2 hours to get it somewhat cleaned up

 

Another all hands meeting, 50 miles away. I decided after the last meeting, I would give them a break and not attend.

They called me and put me on speakerphone.

 

Have you brought out the tenkara rod?

 

We’re you mean to them again?

 

Lasagna looks good, I'm drooling over the biscuits!

 

There’s a bear coming through your wall!

 

Good evening everyone. I think that my Taco is sick. it's running kinda crappy and the tailpipe is sooty. I plugged in my scan tool ( just a horrible freight scanner, nothing nice) and I didn't see any codes. I was also feeling a weird vibration through the steering wheel the past week or so, I thought that the summer tires just needed a rebalance after being in the shed for the past 8 months. When I was on a back road with the windows down this afternoon, I could hear a definite " screech screech screech" when the steering wheel was turned a bit to the right. On a straight road, it was quiet, so I started to do a gentle left to right sweep, I only heard it when tuning to the right. My brain is thinking wheel bearing, so I jacked up the front end when I got home and wiggled back and forth and up and down, no noticeable movement besides a bit of slop in the steering rack. The pads are only about 1/2 worn and the rotor spins pretty free, a bit of drag compared to the drivers side but not enough that I'd suspect a bad caliper.
I dunno, something is going on. This is my DD, so I need to get it figured out even though I'm going car shopping on Monday.

 

I tried to keep quiet and let the other techs talk, which they did. But they kept stopping and asking me for input.

So i was mean to them again.

Had to replace the whole steering rack not too long ago.
I regularly have stuff like bushings and bearings replaced, why wait for a failure? It will cost less in the long run IMOGMO.

 

evening Bill. Hope you are doing well.

hope it feels better soon

nice view
