I don't think Jeanette needs to get the top number of votes in order to get to be on the calendar - but it doesn't hurt to keep voting till the contest is over.

LOL She might only need to be in the top 12 for that matter. Will still try to catch up.

I found out that the insurance auditor that's coming to my pharmacy next week is a pharmacist as well, so he's going to "get it" - could possibly save my company 100 grand!!! And, the COO called me yesterday. He's putting together a group of pharmacy managers to brainstorm, think outside the box, and re-evaluate all of our processes. He is only picking one pharmacist from each region, and in my region, that would be ME! I feel so special! So, I'll be meeting with that group in Cincinnati every couple of months - maybe I can find time to hook up with some local Camaro peeps???
I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend - wish I was at the fest....

Congrats. I'll take a calendar if you end up with extras.

Pinion seal is done. Nothing like working under a truck when it is 107* outside. I'll wash it tomorrow morning, then I have to tackle another irrigation leak. Might go to a cruise tomorrow night.

Had to run some errands today, so I drove the Dakota. When I returned home, I parked in front of the garage door and unloaded everything. Went back out later in the day and noticed a few drips of gear oil. Was NOT happy to see that. So I crawled under the truck and noticed I didn't clean up all of the old gear oil as there was still some between the gas tank and the retaining strap. Pinion seal was dry, thankfully.

Happy Sunday All!

Hey Sheriff!

Rick, your truck looks great.

Did anyone beside me check out the announcement about C-fest V?

It's scheduled for the first weekend in May '14 in Baytown, TX outside of Houston.

For me, it's about 350 miles closer than Indy (which doesn't say much) and for the PNWer's is even further than Indy.

You know, I was thinking....

Back home from the fest. I had a great time got to meet Janice and Skip watched some racing and had a lot of fun hanging out in the parking lot checking out the cars and talking to people. However as usual I neglected to take a lot of pictures. I get so involved looking around and talking to people I just forget to pull out my phone to snap some pictures. I did take a couple of my Hex Vents being installed but I just got an iPhone and I am still figuring out how to use it properly so most of the ones I took are sideways so I will just include one of the finished product for now. I am going to remove them for somew additional painting when I get a chance.

I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaack! What a good time I had. I spent the first day meeting up with C5 friends & partied the first night, got the suspension & partied the next night, ran autocross & bracket races the next day (I beat a ZL1 & an SS), partied really hard that night, then ran heads up racing (won 2nd place in V6 class) & got my halos instaled the next day & just hung out a little in the parking lot that night (I was pooped!) & drove home today. It was a very good Fest! I am in process of going through all the pics but for now:

Just two states away from me, 1213 miles one way. But is it worth bring a stock 5th Gen to this?

Good morning crew. Back to the real world. It is a strange feeling. Makes me think of what it must be like to come back to earth from outer space. I know that sounds odd but it just seems like I have been to fantasy world & now I have to go to work. Well, coffee finished & time to get up & going. More pics posted on the fest pics & videos thread. I'll work on posting up the rest of the pics & vids gradually in the evenings this week. HAGD all.
