Afternoon Everyone !!

Decided to take the Camaro out for a little exercise and almost ran out of gas !!!. I totally forgot I was almost empty when I got home last Thursday from the car show . When I started it up my fuel pressure was fluctuating about a 1/2lb and when I got onto the street and under hard throttle it was fluctuating almost 1-2lbs

After I saw the fuel pressure fluctuating I just about idled the 3/4 mile to the gas station


As for the cooler weather it's still bad air up here as I just checked the Density Altitude and it's bad !!! . The GPS corrected elev here is 4200' and after I checked the Density Altitude it was 6600ft corrected and Relative Density is 88.9

Still better than corrected elevation of 9500ft during the Summer months

Well its done . Heres some pics from todays motorcycle trip.

1st pic is at Kent Falls . Kent Ct.

2nd pic taken through a window at Bulls Bridge covered bridge in So. Kent . Notice how the rocks are worn away from all the centuries of water and stuff washing over them.

3rd pic is myself with my friend Steve.

Just coincidence there was a Tacoma in the parking lot. So we parked the bikes there as the ground was the flattest.

Another ride Sunday ,destination unknown

Looks like a nice ride, Tom

 

Too old for this thing called work anymore but going better than had even hoped. Even got a couple hours sleep in. Youngest son took some frozen shrimp and salmon out and put it in the fridge to defrost. On Thursday. And then left for the girlfriends for the weekend. Going to be grilling instead of sleeping here in a few when the cedar plank soaks up some water, I am not going to throw that food out come Monday. Sleep can wait.

Wrong type of lime supposed to be quickline for making bodies disappear

With the pine needles I am thinking that water is acidic and your trying to bring the pH up? Trout farms in the Mountains of Western NC would do that because of the acid rain, but used chunk lime.

 

Morning

 

How is that possible or even considered when selling something like that.

 

Morning.

Getting ready to head out for final fish trip.
Got gen#1 running. Gen box modified and set up.
Hope they didn’t draw down the lake to much.
Then pickle and put to sleep.
It’s a nice 50 degrees cooler than fla.

Tried out my cold weather gear on the bike yesterday.
Wasn’t cold just trying it out.
Yeup I like it..

Time to get moving.
Later people’s.

 

Top of the mornin to you kids. Still raining today,. The battery on my phone wore out so I got it replaced yesterday. I thought it would be expensive, but it was $30.00, and done in less than an hour. Have a good one .

 

Morning All ,

Happy Sunday all. Nephew's wedding, yesterday, was a good time. He's had a tough life, it's good to see things go well for him.

I got the commercial style mower running and determined I have to undo everything the neighbor did to 'fix' it. The carburetor pisses gas out like there's no tomorrow...

Have a line on a replacement truck for the kid. Another Dakota. Hopefully it looks good as the rental has to go back in a week.

 

He is fine. thanks for asking.was blocking up a tree on the mtn. wearing Carharetts it looked like two bee stings on his calf. wasnt much venom so id guess you call it a dry bite. stayed one nite for obsevation

 

Good Morning

 

My uncle got bit by a copperhead when I was about 10 years old. I remember my dad asking my aunt if the snake was gonna be OK.... Ya hadda know my uncle to appreciate that....

 

Howdy Folks!

Alrighty.....Back to work. In 18 days we'll be headed into Black Mountain ORP for yearly meet/campout. Taking off 3 days early to get packed and get used to NOT waking up at 0400. 8 days off for that. In the mean time, gotta get as much work done ahead so I'm not swamped when we get back.

 

Bastard!

 

What did you do to the gen box?
