Good morning all, 34 now, was 21 earlier this morning, going to 45 and sunny. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! Wife is happy, she loves to cook big meals and she is doing that. Cooking for me and regular for everyone else. They are having a free range chicken, less leftovers and the works, Me not sure yet but it will be good. Wife busy in kitchen, I am just sitting here feeling blessed.

Bup, praying for your gut and sugar levels. Mrs Bup, praying you will have a happy Thanksgiving, even if you can't be where you want to be.

Randy, back 25 years ago a buddy and I built a 455 for a Regal and added nitrus. The night we got it running he took it out and tried it out. He got scared when he looked down and saw he was going "somewhere over 100" in a 25 mph zone.

Thanks again for all of the well wishes, Love you guys. Ed

Happy Thanksgiving

65°F and .87 inches rain.
Too early to tell for for but might be a soggy one.

Could be about 30 of us to celebrate.

Be safe
Have a great day

Calling that man old doesn't seem right now, funny how old men like fast cars

I guess it depends on how old. As a young man, I really liked fast cars, drag racing, etc. Then as a police officer, I had to run a number of high speed pursuits, and I can assure you that racing of any kind on a race track is nothing compared to high speed pursuits on city streets and highways. I was never involved in a wreck, had a 20 year safe driving record.

And now . . . I'll soon be 78, still have a safe driving record, but I also KNOW that I'm not the driver I used to be, have to be extra careful, and have no desire to drive fast anywhere. I do try to drive the speed limit everywhere, even where it's 80 mph on the Interstate, so that I don't hold up other traffic. So this old man has no need for "fast" cars anymore. My 4 cylinder Ford Escapes are fast enough.:laughing:

Good afternoon and good to see all making the most of Thanksgiving.

May you all have a nice Thanksgiving, those who celebrate this occasion. I guess every country has their own Thanksgiving of some sort.
Alas not here Drew, we have to wait until Christmas to get a slice of turkey. The good news is that I have no idea what a stink bug is.

Bird, 25' is a long length of breathing hose. She may have told you it was for getting around the house, but really I think she is planning a bit of underwater exploration
:) . Maybe she can try it out in a Sea Treck center first, is this far from you ?Sea Trek | Schlitterbahn South Padre Island


Randy, great to see pictures of the young lady that stole your heart and never gave it back.

34F and mostly cloudy @ 11:15. High today of 38F, tomorrow is supposed to be nicer ... sunny and a high of 47F.

Late start today, was up late last night researching a variety of things (cabs, materials, building a sheet metal brake, optional die sets for the HF tubing roller, etc. etc.) and designing the cab.

The Woman is in the kitchen cleaning and getting ready to put the bird on.

We're headed over to the nephew's and his wife's for some turkey later today, probably spend a little time up in the shop before we go.

Happy Thanksgiving All !

Dad was a Buick man ... had a thing about Cadillac's being too expensive or something and didn't want to seem like he was showing off.

The first one I remember was pre-60's, sorta beige as I recall and had the fake holes in the hood ... dunno might have been a Roadmaster. Do know he had one of those at some point, but not sure if that was it. After that it was maroon '63 LeSabre and finally a green '73 Electra 225 Limited with the 455. He drove all of them until they were falling apart (literally)

That big Electra sure did ride nice though ... made it seem like you were floating down the highway.

Bup,

Hope you recover quickly, doesn't sound like much fun.

Happy Birthday L4N

Wow, RS is at it again. Another Eiffel Tower. Building one's own tractor cab, takes a lot of skill.
Yup ... remains to be seen whether I'm up to the task.

The frame work will probably be the easy part ... finishing it out to where it looks halfway professional will be the real trick I'd imagine.

Biggest downside is, if I don't build it in sections that can be taken apart, I probably won't be able to get it inside either the garage or the shop, the only two structures that have a concrete floor ... since the overhead doors on both are fairly low.

I just want to know who that handsome guy is in the picture. ...
Dunno for sure as it wasn't labelled or captioned ... but I'm guessing it is TBN Member Roy Gage since it was on his blog, in his write up on building his cab.

Lovely bright blue day, chilly but nice, helped my brother move some firewood.
Of course I checked out his IH 585 he's had a long time.
The turkey smells so good I don't know if these two big golden labs at my feet are
slobbering more than I am...

28° (0715) already and expecting 33°, had this for the past week and would like a cool change.
Rained last night so is quite humid at the moment.
Summer starts next week and we are dreading the high 30's.

Eric, I've been to South Padre Island, but it's been more than 25 years since I was down there; nearly 600 miles from here. I don't think that Sea Treck | Schlitterbahn existed then. And my wife never learned so swim so she's afraid of water more than waist deep.:laughing:
