Hahaha! I know them snakes give me the willys! Im moving around a lil better Tim. I was supposed to get my spinal epidural shot today but me and the wife got the Vid. So now i got 10 more days before i can get my shot. Im supposed to be doing physical therapy now too but everything is on hold. Swear when it rains it pours. At least for us its just like the flu, fever and chills for a day or 2 but not horrible. Gonna pull through just fine. I just cant smell or tAste anything.

Wishing you good health and .... less pouring rain. In fact, no rain.
Seriously hoping everything works out the best for you and yours.

Thanks! Im moving forward, just a lil side step with the Vid. 2 bulging discs and arthritis/narrowing from L5-S1. The PT and shots r just prerequisites for Insurance before surgery. Always got to jump through hoops it seems.

10-4! I believe we call them northern water snakes up here. They do have bad attitudes for sure

Covid is a nasty thing for sure. I got original covid last November. Was not fun at all. Glad to see you pulling through.

 

[Steve]

Went to the junkyard today and came home with a complete upper and lower intake, both exhaust manifolds, a perfectly strait and rust free valve cover, fake wood grain interior trim pieces, good EGR tube, and a few smalls to put dual tanks back in this thing too.

All for the grand total of 50 bucks!
