    Today's an Arbuckles day. Normally it just on weekends.

    Special Day here.
    Yesterday I became a Grandpa again, little boy.
    Today is my last day of Cardiac Rehab.
    Tomorrow I go back to work.
    Don't want to.
    As I write this my wonderful wife is making a cake. Today is my 60th birthday.

    When we were at Moab it was the week before Easter Jeep Safari. Trail traffic was light. Saw a lot of Jeep heading west as we were going east. Saw a lot of FedEx trucks, but it could've been the same one as we were stopping for gas it would catch up to us.

    I've been pretty quiet on the forum lately, and for good reasons...

    Kate and I are married! Tied the knot on 8/31 in St. Germain, WI.

    No great pics yet, but here's one with my cousin and his wife.

    Finished installing the roof rack. Getting those nuts on was a bitch. My arms don't contort like that. Had to do the dab-of-grease on the finger trick, then install by feel.
    Rack seems very robust. It'll suit my needs just fine. Wish I'd had this for Alaska.
