Damn plastic snap-in crap is what breaks. Works good for license plates but headlights, not so great

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
This is my life . The misses refuses to put stuff on the countertop . I’ve made three cutting boards that she uses one of those nylon boards on top of them because they are to nice .

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
It could be worse -- she could be using the countertop as a cutting board!

Took my family to the wildlife refuge today. We saw a dozen different species of ducks, plus several hawks, and geese, turkeys, pheasants, vultures, sandhill cranes…

Took both of these yesterday. The house made me think of the Chevy commercial "Like a Rock". I see happy dog a couple times a week.

I remember buying out of that catalog. I wish some of those prices were still good.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
It is true. My wife had a little side business doing clean-outs for a realtor friend of ours. It really changed our perspective on saving stuff. We threw out people's hobbies, careers, collectables, etc. In 10 minutes we would figure out and try to guess what they did or were into. It was actually quite depressing. Especially now as I watch my Dad prepare for his departure.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I can usually tell when someone around here has died or is moving. There will be one (or more) 30-yard dumpster(s) at the curb in front of their house. I keep telling my wife we shouldn't leave this for our sons, but she still has sweaters from when she was a teen. It's gonna be a real mess. Neighbor to my west fell and is in a nursing home- and ain't coming out. He has a friend come and get his mail and check on the house. Neighbor across the street and one east had a stroke. If his garage door hadn't been open, nobody would have seen him and he would have died right there. There are people I don't know in his house now, from Florida. Could be squatters, for all we know.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
No, I wish. Not my bike, either. this is my first time back here and I see I should've added text, not just the picture. I took that picture at the Chesapeake Chapter of AMCA meet in October. I have owned one Knucklehead in my life. Last year, '47.
Another one from the meet

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
When I was a teen my buddy bought a knucklehead partial chopper. He sort of finished it and we rode the wheels off that thing. I sat on the hard rear fender with a skinny little sissy bar to hold on to. It had shorty pipes that forever vibrated loose. It was loud and great!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Wife and kids suplemented the shop. I have never used a battery ratchet before. I have alway been OK with manual stuff. Extra batteries that will wok in all my tools. Glad hey paid attention to what dad owns.
