    Morning everyone.

    Happy hump day.

    Oldest got invited by his best friend's parents to go on a 3 day beach trip, so we allowed him to go. He's off already and coming back Friday. Going to Mogehan, have fun there, and the beach.

    Because of that the youngest got a little jealous, so the wife decided to do a 2 day trip to Rhode Island and go to the aquarium in Newport because the youngest has a thing for aquariums. So we're leaving in a bit, staying the night, and coming back tomorrow at some point. Also going to take advantage of this and see family the Mrs has in Rhode Island.

    Newport is one of our favorite places. Red Parrot is very kid friendly and Wally's for breakfast is fantastic! Take a ride out to Fort Adams. Enjoy!

    Hit the Arcade too. Never met a skeeball I didn't like!

    Good evening CT.
    Got the brake pads today. I think I'll change them tomorrow night and bleed the front.
    Saturday is electrical work day as I have 90% of what I need. Hopefully the rest of the stuff will show up by Friday.

    The tech next to me had a question about a sunroof track he was doing. There was a bracket that you needed to reuse. I told him you have to drill out the rivets and put in new rivets once you transfer the bracket over.

    Does he listen to me? No. He broke the bracket (it's plastic) and had to order an new one. You'd think they listen with the amount of sunroofs I've done. o_O
