Awesome looking landscaping rylee:L:

 

I took yesterday off work to get the Focus put back together.  This is a job that I will never do again.  It took me most of the day (working alone and without a lift) to get it done, but I finally pulled it out around 4:30.  Took it for a test ride, clutch was a little "stiff" but the engine idle was way high.  Turns out a vacuum line on the back of the TB got pulled out somewhere along the way....easy fix.  I need to bleed the throwout a bit more, I think there's still an air pocket in it, and might fiddle around with adjusting the shifter cables a bit.  Brought it to work this morning, and it popped a CEL about 2 miles from work.  Still runs fine, though, so I have no idea what it is and I can't pull the codes via the "blinking CEL sequence" like some other vehicles and I don't have a scanner.  Might run it past the Advance Auto or somewhere after work to see if they can read the code for me.

 

Oh, and one of my credit cards got hacked last week.  Hacker tried repeatedly to purchase $8-10K worth of stuff at Best Buy over the last couple days, the card issuer shut the card down thankfully.

Geez guy, way to make us all feel inadequate here :L:

 

today I moved the camper trailer to the side of the house and threw a tarp on it. :dunno:  somehow I don't think I'm the same level of saving the world as Fiatslug.  :laugh:

 

Keep fighting the good fight so that those that can't fight can still win  :L:

I built a clay thrower a couple of weeks ago. Been planning this for a while but finally found time to throw it together (pun intended).f7779cb814acf069557e094f0b2fa7cd.jpg074fe80986125397972b58d99abf32d1.jpg

Nice! My best at a trap club is 23/25. At a Boy Scout Camp I went 48/50, but we were close to the trap house at the Boy Scout Camp. What is your best?

Never really shot alot of trap. I'm a skeet shooter at heart. Personal beat is 23/25. But watch my father shoot many a perfect round. Made everyone mad when he did it with a 410 o/u

Wow! What exactly is the difference between Skeet and trap? I’ve never really figured it out.

Can’t say the shut down has affected me much being a homebody anyways but I’ve been laying sod and painting like a mad man at the new house and slowly hoarding new Jeep goodies. Purchased some wheels and tires for the new MJ project but they made their way on the wife’s WK for fun. 600264F1-93DB-4B49-9A79-CCB221A00CC6.jpeg.56706a8901cab5cc5d91a2cb06bae9d2.jpegA5DE7708-704E-4D42-9917-BF61E6908DE7.jpeg.4af13693004a36e8766b9ba296183320.jpeg0B190209-5D12-4ECE-97D7-DB240A5A4C15.jpeg.6f63b6d213767502d9adec3ef945c1ff.jpeg7788835A-A1F6-4B8A-A26A-D1463BA5F125.jpeg.5ba28053b1f82c031e56f8d3f2ee21fb.jpeg

moved the trailer to be next to the house and stop eating up the precious driveway space!  also put a tarp on it.  we shall see if that's a good or a bad thing.  :dunno:

Nobody commenting on how you just happen to have a forklift AT YOUR HOUSE?!  Am I the only one without that and I didn't know it?

It is a handy tool to have around the house, i wish I had bought one that could leave the pavement though, I might have to get a second one to keep in the backyard.

I will neither confirm nor deny that you can get one of those little forklifts stuck on a flat concrete floor.

 

This was my little helper for the couple of weeks before I had my danger privileges revoked. Maybe a little too big for the job I was doing, but hey.
