    So, this happened the other night....

    20171118_172017.jpg 20171118_172024.jpg 20171120_151143.jpg

    Also found out that the alarm feature isn't hooked up or something, because I got no notification when it happened.


    A bunch of people recommended MS Glass in Salem (and a few other locations in Washington), and MAN were they fast!!! In and out in just under 15 minutes, and that included vacuuming the broken glass! Great service, great price for same-day service...I recommend them if you're in a pinch! Next time though [God forbid], I'll do it myself. It looked like an easy process.

    Anywho, kudos to MS Glass!

    They snagged my FIL's backpack that had his phone and truck keys. Phone's been disabled, and spare keys are on the way. It sucks all around, but luckily no one was injured and nothing else was taken.

    Got a free First Class upgrade! First time, ever, flying First Class! (I got to pick not only a "primium" snack, but I got to pick 2! (and a glass of wine for a 30 minute flight :proposetoast:)

    20171127_212622.jpg



    The first day was a balmy, beautiful 37 degrees!

    A local brewery (The Workshop) has "Stranger Brews." If you fit the description, and you can prove it, you get a free beer!

    Second night, we went out to eat. The 12oz steak looked like it was going to be small, being that there was a 22oz steak on the menu!

    My buddy's 22oz steak...

    :rofl: Don't forget about the patches. OP is such a fanboy lol


    Lol thanks! Once I'm done paying off student loans, I'll be able to play a bit more. Until then, I've gotten pretty good at doing the free and easy things (like detailing).
