    Go team Mustard for the win. Though a good vet will have your steak up and walking in an hour…must be where your malamute developed his hankering for raw meat???

    Nice tractor BTW. I miss living in the country. But the commute would not be fun…not around here anyway.

    Beautiful country there. I didn't do it often, but I always liked driving over Stevens.

    Lined bifocals, not Progresives?
    Very good, welcome to team Mustard!
    Nice looking dogs and that rib roast looks awesome!

    sorry, this is all new to me. forgive me for using the generic "bifocal" to describe them. they are progressive lenses

    the big news is that there are now TWO deaths linked to food poisoning at a local restaurant - a sushi place. health department shut them down a couple weeks ago and started looking into it.

    Welcome! Great answers as well. That chunk of prime rib has me salivating right now..

    I lived in between Federal Way and Kent for about 5 years ( off of Military on top of the west hill ), my Aunt and Uncle lived in Redondo Beach for about 40 years, my cousin and her crew live in Bonny Lake.

    @US Marine ( and anyone else following along)- I visually verified that the earl is puking out of the right rear corner of the intake. While I was cleaning oil leaks underneath I found that the OP sender for the gauge cluster ( down low on the block, close to the oil filter) had the brass adapter block fitting so loose that I could turn it by hand. That ended up being a 2 hr PIA to get at, clean and new teflon goop on the threads and get it back together. The other sensor up by the dizzy was fine, no leaks. Apparently that one is for the fuel pump relay override. ( from what I could gather, there isn't as much info out there on the TBI 5.7's that I could find.) After that, I got the inspection mirror jammed behind the intake against the firewall and could see a steady puff of oily steam coming out, I just couldn't see any actual oil. Then I blipped the throttle and saw the mess starting to ooze out.

    So it looks like tomorrow ( if the rain stays away ) will be the day for tearing off the intake and resealing it. Hopefully that will fix the big drivability issue so at least I can move this turd around a bit.

    They are great crates we have 30 of different sizes so we can reconfigure depending on what we are transporting.
    When we have a smaller dog load I make a bed on top of them.
