Our Morning Coffee and Weather

Nice tow rig Al!

Thanks 2006 with 103000 on it. Its been a great truck

You probably get another 100,000 out of it. I am knocking on 200K door with my 2006 Tacoma. I probably will consider replacing it in another 4 years or so. Yet, I don't make rode trips with it. So, I am not in a hurry.

GFK this truck only gets driven to Texas. I dont even drive it during the summer months much at all. I put about 5k a year on it. Im not sure I will be the one that see's 200K on it

26 heading to 37 and possible sunny skies today. No fog so Rudolf won’t need his landing lights to drop off that new Henry to me.

Son and DIL are coming over for a prime rib dinner. He introduced me to old fashioneds (the drink) on Thanksgiving so we will enjoy a few of those too.


Pic from last year, very little snow out there this year.

Hatch that motorhome you just got is needing a trip south outa that snow stuff. Snow sucks


Hey Al, yes it does. Still need to get a TOAD set up, we’re torn between just using our Explorer or getting a Jeep Wrangler. Possibly we’ll be heading out to SoCa in late winter or early spring if we get the toad ready. Looks like by taking I5 south out of Portland we would only cross one low pass. That is if I can get out of my neighborhood which is pretty hilly.

30 this morning with about a half inch of snow dropping overnight. Just enough to move with the shovel if it doesn’t melt. High in the low to mid 30’s so it’s probably shovel time for me. Good, need to get off my butt and burn off some Christmas cookies and fudge.

We've been towing my Explorer for eight years with nary a problem. It works well.

49° this morning on the dog walk. It's warmed up to 51° at about 10:30 a.m. I cooked up some French toast and sausage for breakfast. I'm not doing much today. I may get out later and get the wife's car inspected. I always seem to forget the inspection is due in December.

5.9 still? My ‘05 had 600,000 on it when I sold my big camper and no longer needed the diesel 1 ton.

45° this morning on the dog walk. It isn't going to get out of the 50's here today. Not much on the agenda. I need to go to the Co. clerks office and pay the property tax.

Little Girl is a Benedict Arnold. She use to be a lap cat and now she sleeps on her heating pad. A cat’s temperature is around 102F and that is the temperature of the pad so cats are naturally drawn to it.

It’s 28F as I sip my Folgers out of my Henry cup.

She sure is a pretty little companion.

[Hatchdog]

Little girl is looking very content.

Back here in Washington where Little girl used to live it’s 30 heading to the upper 30’s. Maybe some sunshine today. Pretty much what we expect to see for the next several days.

I’m planning on heading into Spokane with a neighbor to play some virtual golf today. However my left knee is giving me fits and I’m expecting it to be a problem. Lot’s of torque on a knee (particularly) the left with a golf swing. I hate the thought that I may have a tear of some sort. If it keeps up I’ll see the doc.
