Evening everybody.
Retirement lasted 3 weeks. I start another phase of my life next Monday. I get to work where my son works. At a Ford dealership in town. My new job will consist of taking customers home, to work or wherever they need to be while the dealership has their car. Just what I wanted. Something stupid easy.

Be careful saying "Stupid easy". Those are the ones that kick me in the ash every time. Congratulations on the new job anyway.

Exactly the same as I do on Monday and Tuesday mornings! In year number 8 now and I’ve learned to handle the stress😄😄
Enjoy it Steve!

Got the 87 F150 running today reliably.
Visited my favorite place yesterday, the local salvage yard. Picked up a complete air filter housing assembly. Previous yo-yo tried to make his own cold air intake. Butchered the original one.
And picked up an idle air controll valve while I was there. Today I changed the oil in the old girl and installed the new high pressure fuel pump on the frame and the IAC. Took a bit to prime the system but, lo and behold, she started up and ran as smooth as a Singer Sewing machine.
And she now has a name. My oldest son suggested “Black Betty”. From the song.
Seems to fit.

Can't hide money buying those name brand lures. LOL. Watch Scheels for sales on baits because they will be a lot cheaper if you can time it right. I guess I will try to take a picture of my collection tomorrow morning. Usually I can pick up flicker shads for under $3 when they run sales.

Trolling cranks and jig bodies tomorrow morning. I use a lot of bobby garland minnow bodies anymore, I should get back into tying. I waded the cold pond tonight getting the boat off the trailer and replacing the bunk boards. Got to be some crazy to do that in February in pants and crocs.
