Wendy should be landing Denver, CO in about an hour.
Week vacation in Estes Park with friends.
So I'm bachin' it for a week.

Still dealing with that pesky sink leak.
Crypt car parts due today or tomorrow.
Weather too bad for any fishing.

I get to go to my cabin and mow weeds, split wood and make other assorted repairs. If I have time, I may take a few hours to fly fish for Brook Trout. The TR is going to spend the weekend in the garage.

In no particular order...

- repair split hose bib (it froze); requires decking board removal and sweating some copper.

- finish wiring spa with Sc40 conduit

- finish new deck railing, using maintenance free stuff

- glassbead/paint the Spit pedal clusters

- drink CAB
 
Hopefully it'll rain and I won't have to work, then I'll work on photo stuff.
 
I wanna try and paint my last two wheels. However, I'm half way expecting to not have that much free time to myself. So, I'm hoping to get at least 1 wheel painted this weekend.
 
4 year wed anniversary saturday:
Drive down to the lake in the Midget with picnic basket full of appetisers, drive into town for dinner, then go to the drive in movie theatre.
Sunday:
Mow.
B WORK! Yeah!
 
plumb in new washing machine.
more drywalling in garage/basement.

stare longingly at new appliances wishing we had some cabinets to mount them in.

oh and argue about colors for the nursery...
 
Get over jet lag....
Visit grandson....
Figure out why the Jaguar that I drove this morning isn't firing this afternoon!!!!
 
The wife and I are test driving the Miata Club rally we're leading next month....get to ride the James River Ferry which is always fun (and free). Buying stuff to repair the rotten railing on the front porch, going to the pool, teaching Sunday School and going to church, and maybe replacing the right rear rebound strap on the MGB.

hehehehe...yeah, well its making me angry - battery is fully charged...she's just decided to not fire!
 
Just got a battery for the new B. just got back inside from cleaning it up but still need to awaken it. Gotts finish the den and go shopping for her's birthday which is the 3rd. Gotta also get ready for camping which is Wednesday.
Then the rest of the GT cut up.
 
Hmmm....Just sold the 280Zx we have been restoring for the last five months, Idgy is running, tomatoes are ripe so..sounds like gardening. Canning tomatoes, freezing green beans, making salsa, rotel and pepper jelly.

Chuck may be on to somethin' there.

you may be right, chuck...appears the coil just quit when I parked it yesterday morning! Wonder if a spare coil off an MGB will work?
 
Only one way t' know. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

Actually should be fine. Sure it's not "upstream" in that trigger box? If it's OEM you're on borrowed time in any event.
