Thanks - Definitely getting anxious! :burnrubber:

69supersport396 07-31-2017 11:26 AM

Tooth is all fixed up. :D

Wasn't painful over the weekend. I almost forgot about it Sunday.

Rained again on Saturday evening, so no car photos.

Thanks - It's south of me and has already been downgraded to a Tropical Depression. A lot of flooding through Central Florida.

Heavy thunderstorms to the west of me.

RubyCamaro 08-01-2017 09:49 PM

Stay safe everyone. Here is was an unusually pleasant day for Aug 1st. Tomorrow is my daughter's birthday & in a week I turn 60. Today was my first day back to work for the last school year before I retire so start the countdown. T minus 10 months & counting.

69supersport396 08-02-2017 12:45 PM

Happy Birthdays!

I'm sure that 10 months will go quickly.

69supersport396 08-05-2017 10:15 PM

Back east for a week of vacation. Gotta get used to thermostat settings in the 60's. It's cold in some of these businesses.

Thanks Everyone! I've always wanted to ride in the Goodyear Blimp but didn't think that I would have the opportunity. Spike 800 feet isn't that high up.

I should have known you new about this already.:thumbup: I was just going to post up to you about it.:faint: :thumbsup:

Now all we have to do is see what NASCAR is going to do with the modifications.

I'm sure it will have the same common template as the Ford Fusion & Toyota Camry. The nose, rear, & hood will resemble a stock ZL1. Although I don't believe NASCAR will allow a functional heat exchanger in the hood.

Question now is - Will Ford switch to the Mustang?

Well what a hell of a busy week got my new doors built for my shed and installed. Cleaned the shed out & gave a lot of stuff to my sons. Got my wood working shop back in order & cleaned up. Trimmed the bushes weed wacked mowed lawn Detailed the camaro.

Then there is Friday SOB LOL had an appointment with my podriast to have my big toe nail taken off. That all went well was leaving the place and it started to bleed. Come back in get the problem fixed. Got out the door same thing again so they stitched it up. All is well except trying to get the hell away from this place. Back we go for another hour and again change of bandage. X-ray shows I have 2 bone spurs. Next MRI possible operation next. So leg elevated for the next 10 days BS. If there is one thing I hate is sitting around and people doing what I should be doing. Really PO's me And 4 1/2 hours later I'm home. Now the shots are wearing of making me feel so much better LOL enough of my ranting. Everyone have a great weekend.

Good thing that you got all of that done before going to the podiatrist! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Back from our vacation in Maryland. There was a one hour delay taking off from BWI. With the delay and the flight, we were on that airliner 5 hours. My butt hurt from sitting.

Had a great time visiting with family and friends.
