    TY sir.
    I don’t think it was you but I appreciate you getting after that.
    I put a flag next to that rock so we won’t take the blades out on the mower.
    Gotta find a solution to that..

    Morning Porchatonians.
    Kinda sore today.
    Had to pull the trans in the restore as there are two different throw out bearing
    collars and supports. Got that swapped out. Moved some cars to get a hole to pack the Corolla
    away for winters nap.
    Weather was awesome yesterday. So I got on the bike and just took the longest ride I’ve done in years.
    Wind was getting real bad though it helped keep the leaves from building up on the road.
    Leaves hurt at 50mph.
    Might be the last ride of the year.

    Kinda funny my trip meter after my ride….

    We voted by mail a couple weeks ago and now we’re looking forward to the end of these constant political adds on TV.

    A little something every chance we get.
    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! Would'yabelieveitChief? Never got the one crate. Wife went shopping, then crafting. Retired Teachers meeting today, so I guess I'll be needed tomorrow. Good day for that garage ceiling, looks like.

    @roundrocktom - missed your question the other day. Austin's Pistons in the Park in Pflugerville. With nice clean restrooms inside too - great host! Here's a link. @95SLE , Tom, I hope your work today requires no bravery! Thanks for you effort. I voted early again, but if you haven't, please do. Every vote is important.

    I was a candidate in our local elections last year. Didn't win but didn't finish last either so apparently somebody was buying what I was selling. It was a fascinating experience and met a lot of great people. But once was enough. Strangest part was seeing my name on signs all around town.

    I was advised to look this thread up. So here I is. OK I'm 60+ just add 12 to that number. Married to one woman 41 years. 2 children, 2 grandchildren. 1 son in law. 1 dog. She is my dog when she goes to the Vet or the groomer. The rest of the time she's theirs. Want to know about my handle ? CERN is a particle accelerator that found the Higg Boson particle or the God particle. I machined target cells for particle accelerators in my last job. Kind of the fastest thing we know of on Earth.
    99.9999991 of the speed of light. CERN may have opened up a 5th dimension on it's last run or a mini black hole. the SLOPE is a slippery one.

    CRS is better than CSR!!!

    It's starting to cool off - back to normal November temps is forecasted. Chance of snow flurries for early next week. Lynn and I head to Antigua for a week on Saturday.

    Good morning all! Little chilly this morning on my way to work, 33 degrees crossing the small creek just before the shop. Had my heated jacket liner turned on a little to take the edge off. I'm one of those folks that don't believe in putting a motorcycle away for winter.
