    Thursday night, “get me another beer, I got this” :cheers:

    Friday morning, “hopefully the machine shop can fix it” :facepalm:

    When I get it out, they drilled half the hole away, off center on an angle.

    Thankful they circled it so I know which one it is.

    The engineers at Honda really thought ahead. They put the hole in the headrest because they knew somewhere, sometime, somebody was going to have to repair a guide upright for a boat and he would use it.

    Just busier'n a 3 legged bird dog is all. Had dinner with my parents Wednesday, my dad told me a story how when he was 17 the carnival had come to town and he helped em get set up. They said you swing a wrench alright you wanna join up and ride with us to the next town.
    He had already signed papers with the Navy and got a ship out date but he said I did think about it.

    -Ready for a couple days off...

    Other front sumos finally arrived (about 2 months after ordering) install wasn't too bad. The studs were too long, but a cut off wheel and thread file made that work out.

    I'm taking the family hiking soon. We'll see how the ride is. Hopefully not too harsh for the wife :anonymous:

    If they had that stuff up here I’d build a motorized rail cart for sure.
    The red tape to use a abandoned rail line would more than likely cause you to go bankrupt..
    But then again I’d build one just to say I did it..

    Mrs Green says the little cat sits on the porch rail watching the driveway for hours. She is tucked in my shirt now -- the cat, not Mrs Green. :D
