Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I went to the Dollar store with the wife to buy stocking stuffers ,,it is amazing how much a $1.00 each for every thing adds up..

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Quick trip to town and then replaced an electric "burner" on the stove top. Should have been simple but the connections on a 40-50 year old stove weren't quite compatible. Had to open up the bent eyes on the new one, and actually break the ends off the old one to use the holes as nuts. Everything has to fit together just so in order to fit in the insulating clamshell.
The guy at the little shop in town actually has my jeep inside and taken apart and is putting in new rockers. I thought it was the lifters which is why I took it in to a shop instead of trying to work on it myself. Maybe we will actually get it back by the end of the year. It's been sitting down there since late Sept or early Oct.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
My wife is off work today. So I'll probably have a laundry list of stuff that I didn't do to my truck today coming up.
She's already making a list.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
My "do list" is rearranging my office. It requires shutting down and unplugging everything for a while. Might start after lunch ... (?)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Well, mostly back together again after working on it yesterday and today. Now for the first time in almost 18 years we can open the office door all the way! What a difference 6" makes

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I do see appliance repair businesses. In fact, a long time appliance parts business is in Frederick 20 minutes away. We had a radio & TV repair shop in town when I moved here in '87. I just searched and, also in Frederick, there is one TV sales & service still

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I'd watch showing such succulence (is that a word?) on the world wide web. Might create traffic problems and infrastructure overload for Montezuma. I'll be leaving here shortly, heading your way!
No pictures, but I assembled a weight lifting station for a friend's son's Christmas present

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I smoked me up a ham in what I call, my 2 for heat, three for meat smoker...(1drawer for fire, 1 drawer for the water pan, 3 drawers for smoking meat) I then slathered it up with a brown sugar, honey glaze and slapped it under the broiler for a few minutes to set the glaze. Pretty good, if I do say so my self.
Smoked using small fresh cut green apple wood over larger seasoned apple wood.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Same here. I didn't use my vertical smoker, I used the offset grille. All afternoon. Since I had that grille going I did up some potatoes and broccoli special on the grille, too. The whole meal off the grille. I'm not sure I knew what I was doing, but I must say it all came out delicious. I got lucky

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
It's bogus. Funny money. Very poor counterfeit job with either a front on both sides or the back on both sides and no blue streak on the $100. Could probably be passed as real, but not by me!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I did NOTHING! I have sciatic pain in my right leg. Worst it's ever been. Only behind the knee. Back has no pain at all. Everything I'd go to do I could see it wouldn't5 help the healing process, so I have mostly been sitting around. Not my style at all!
