I'm sorry, man, that really sucks!

..... Of course, if I win the lottery or something, I'm going to abandon this chassis and scurry out to TCI and get one fully tricked out!!!

Hope all is well on your end.....aside from running over your hood and stuff.......
It rained here this morning, so naturally we had "STORM WATCH 2007!!!!" I'm glad I grew up somewhere else so I can chuckle at all this "drama" over these everyday occurrences...ya know?

Randy,
All is well here - sort of - with my wife in England.

I just called Rootlieb to see if they shipped the hood sides - but, since I wanted them with no hardware or even hardware holes, they wont ship for 7 to 10 days ...DRAT

Glad you finally got to use your new welder for something besides a door stop It takes a while to get reasonably good welds - mine are just barely that as I don't really do enough to keep in practice. It's amazing what a few pieces of steel will help.

Sorry about the rain in "sunny" CA. It is about 65 now with bright blue skies as opposed to last week when we were waiting snow. Supposed to be 75 or so by Sunday and my yard is a disaster - it's just under an acre, with 17 huge, 100+ year old oak trees that shed all winter, so I will be in some pain shortly with raking. Then I need to de-winterize the camper. And, oh, by the way, finish painting the house and when I have some free time, work on my car, sheetrock the laundry room, put in a new bathroom countertop and sink plus a new shower stall And I thought when I retired, I would have a lot of free time. Oops gotta go to Lowes now for some drain parts now for the new washer - the old one died Saturday
Like I said, all is well here - kinda !!
