    Almost another month goes by and no more real progress on this truck. But, I did manage to get my 4 new windows replaced in the house and 1 in the garage. I have almost 1/3 of the leaves raked up and gone, finished removing tin from an old building we were tearing down, and purchased a good used snow blower. I'm guessing I'll be lucky to get this truck in the shop until after Christmas. We shall see. Hopefully I only have one saturday left working at the farm, and then it's fence time. I guess I did finish the 01 Dodge Ram I've had at the old shop for about 3 months too. That truck didn't want to leave! Now I have to learn to say no to working on other people's stuff and focus on my stuff.

    That's what happens with me. I have to turn a wrench "after work" to earn some cash to support the "hot rod habit"..

    Usually I can get a "interesting" job on a old tractor or a "garden tractor".. I don't charge a lot but I get to be "very choosy" on what jobs I'll take in.

    But I don't have any kids either.. In any event, we can all relate and we know you're doing a great job
