Summer

It's summer in Oregon.  Warm weather.  Lots of sun.  Filling the pots in the back yard with flowers.  Lots of flowers.  I have the sprinkler system running with no major leaks.  (That took several attempts.)  The house was painted just before we arrived home.  It looks great.  We had a gutter guard put on the gutters on two sides of the house that get dumped on by our trees.  The trailer has had the slide motor replaced on the big slide.  ( $700 for a motor the size of my fist, plus labor of course.)
The shop discovered a bad tire so that is still to be done.  I took the truck to get the oil changed and A/C serviced and the freon would not go in so there's a problem with the compressor or condenser.  So that has yet to be addressed.    The best thing is that the BRT (Big Red Truck) is getting a new coat of paint.  The old boy has been looking a bit sad for the past year.  Heaven knows we can't afford a new one.  I looked at a new F350 dually at Canby Ford Saturday.  Yeow!  $74K !!!!  Who can afford that?

   I was on the campus of Canby Ford to visit a large car show.  Lots of cool cars.  Here are a few.
