Good (Tuesday) morning. Overnight Low of 9.1C and it's presently 22.6C, clear with a breeze.

A very successful day yesterday; tip run followed by a PO stop. Yep, the wine faeries again.

Then it was over to the tyre shop with the Left front Z-turn tyre = short story is that it was, indeed, the bead. 15 minutes later he (a former Navy Cadet of mine) handed it back to me, "No charge".

During the 15 minutes, I went next door to "Buster's" (Auto parts & more) and bought a new air line + male/female fittings. Also picked up a roll(?) of white Teflon tape for the threads... I know, I know, I'm sure that I'm not the only one who gets a new roll of tape knowing that I've 'probably' got a few somewhere around the shop. [Sure enough, there was one within easy reach on my bench]

Nothing really planned for today. That's about it, take care all.

thanks for the birthday wishes. Tomorrow is the actual big day.

... which means that it actually IS the big day, down here.

Happy BD, Mate!

We've got Jackalopes in Western Canada, too. You can find them in Alberta and Saskatchewan in the south. Not so much in the northern parts of the Provinces.

I got the one portable shelter rearranged. Everything I said I was going to put in there is in and with room to spare.

The Dodge goes in for its' snow tires swap tomorrow. The garage will pick it up and deliver it.

The mobile mechanic from my dealer is coming later in the week to change the thermostat (12 years old) in the tractor.

We're having some nice weather. Humid but low 70s daytime, 50s overnight.
Lots of morning fog warnings but clears by 10-11am.
Taking advantage in the afternoons of the nice weather.
Took the GT out for some cruise time before she goes into hibernation.
Filled her up with the best premium and burned off 3/4 tank.
Met up with a newer Corvette that wanted a go with my sweetheart.
I'm beyond that on the street.
We did stop for a coffee and fries at a chip truck. He didn't know Ford built a GT in 05/06.
Took a bit of a highway excursion and got into 5th.
Considering 1st is good to 60mph and 4th, 5th and 6th are ODs I was moving pretty good.
Our Thanksgiving is on October 14th. She goes in for winterizing after that. Fluid changes and put on different wheels and tires that don't matter if they flat spot sitting out the winter.
Hope to have a repeat of today's cruise Tuesday.
