:iagree:

just a timing thing. him and my mom just put a giant inground pool in end of last year but weather turned didnt get it 100% done. the guys are coming to do the floor and liner but need it to be at least 70 and above to get the floor to set properly so at the moment the date is 5/12 for them to start but it can change.

We shall see. I have no idea if my car will be ready in time or if I can even pick it up before hand. I need a damn vacation. I be tired. Trying to get some online training done so I can sign up for the week before.

Well I survived the Chemo and the radiation regimes. All of that fun is behind me now as of yesterday. Now to get my throat to heal and not feel like its on fugging fire.

Next step is to wait for 3 months out, so they can rescan me to see if they got it. I sure hope they did...

(They actually better hope so too, because I fired the last guys who told me I only had 3 more months to live. I will keep firing these damn people until I get the answer I want to hear... :D )

After 3 years, finally going to take a vacation. I have a buddy in Long beach CA. Going there for a week. Never been west coast before. Was thinking of stopping by SpecialtyZ and see what all the fuss is about over there ;-)

Be sure to try some In n Out (double double with animal fries). Pick up a case of Cactus Coolers from the soda section of a store. head to Huntington if you wanna see floss string bikinis and assorted exotic cars.

You will have a blast, nothing like SoCal beaches in the summer time. Nothing special about the shop at SZ, it is a auto shop LOL. The special thing is about spending time with Seb and talking all things Z. Call him before hand and see if he will take you for a ride in his Z. Tell him you are interested in the DCT trans swap. You will be blow away with the experience or not LOL. I am a kid when it come to power and acceleration.

You want to see a quality shop, go to Fast Intentions. Tony will give you a tour and talk your ear off. He is a cocky little sumbitch but he is the best at what he does.

We either go out of Bullfrog or Page. Bullfrog is better for fishing.

So the 2 of 3 packages that didn't get delivered yesterday have status that says "bar code unreadable delivery delayed until next business day". Currently, one of them shows as delivered (no evidence of that on my doorbell camera) and the other one says it is now out for delivery. C'mon FedEx. Usually it's UPS jerking me around; FedEx is usually on point.

Agreed! Bullfrog is in no man's land and so a lot less traffic. Page or Wahweap is the busiest of the landings. I haven't been to Powel in ten years or more. I am pretty excited about it.

At least you didn't have to track a package from Iowa to Guam, to Hawaii, to SF, to Indy, to Pittsburgh, to Brownsville, to home. :shakes head: And that was for a Redding neck bushing die for reloading. :shakes head:

A couple of yrs back. We rented a 75ft house boat and took it about 60 miles down stream from Bullfrog. What we caught, we ate that night. Had a blast until we returned and had to fill up the gas tanks on the house boat. That was $2,500. :eek:

Took the motorhome down to Page. Parked the motorhome on the beach at Lone Rock Beach. The water was about 20 yards away from the motorhome. At night, there was who we called "the generator nazi". The sucker would start at 10pm every night on his quad. And go up and down the beach telling people to shut off their generators. :shakes head: It was over 100F during the day. Night wasn't much better.

I don't get it nobody is sleeping anyway because it is too dang hot.

I would launch at Whaweap and then run all the way up to Rainbow Bridge or further. I would have to fill up at Dangling Rope to make the trip back. My gas tank held 50 gallons!

Well golly bob... Toyota dealer just called me and gave me back a deposit I had put down on a new car for the wife about 3 months ago... Said Toyota cant get chips to build cars, so any and all special orders are cancelled...

That saves me about $45k. Hot damn... :tup:

(I bet they hate having to make those kinda calls..)

My mom bought her new toyota a few weeks ago and just took whatever config was coming off the boat, happened to be the color and package she wanted. Finally shows up tomorrow.

Problem is that was part of my master plan...

I was going to get her a new car and then a month later come home with a new Supra for $55k for me...If she said anything, I would just turn on my puppy dog eyes and say, “but Baby, you got a new car......”

So I guess I really saved $100k... :ugh2:

Over the years, I have brought home new trucks, cars, Harleys, jet skis, boats... she knows how I am... And she will say, “hey we never talked about this...”. and I will say,... “Uh, yes we did, didn’t we... maybe you just forgot...”. Then its couch for a week and its all forgotten... No problemo... I know the drill ... :happydance:

Things happen for a reason. That 100K will end up going someplace else. :icon14: Like for food. :icon14:

Ford is building F150's without computers in them. And letting them sit in a huge parking lots until they can get the chips for the computers. :icon14: Everyone is having problems getting chips. And it's only going to get worse. :icon14:
