well, damn fellas...you sure know how make a guy smile. :gheyhug:
Seriously though, I'm sure I'd love your flooring Steven. I just knew that when the time came that we moved from the 1 car garage we had with sh*t on the walls and floor...that one day when we owned another home and had a worthy garage...that we had to do it, paint the wall and the floor. We actually were going to paint the whole garage but after the labor and paint that one wall sucked up...fk that...plus, we realized it would feel like a dungeon with all the walls dark. I'm happy. Over time, I just want to tint that garage window, insulate the attic and door and put in a pull down ladder. Then, I'm done.
Fan fricken tastic...Betty and I did the touch up with the white paint on the base of the walls where the muriatic and pressure washer stripped a bit.
TL has been sleeping outside for over a week now
I technically can park on the epoxy as of today per their recommended curing time but I'm waiting until Sunday. A week seems like a good amount of time to let it cure.
Last night was tearing into the sprinkler pump and timer...my work buddy says to bring it to him and his friend can give it a once over and see if it can be repaired. I did manage to make the pump buzz last night after I found a desoldered lead. I'm going to say it's either frozen, or a capacitor is cooked. Either way, fixing that and buying a $100 replacement timer (I'm opting to replace like for like and it's a pricey timer with the rain sensor).
Once the garage is cured, all that crap on the left will be put away...there's a nice workbench that was left in the house under a tarp and shelving etc. The rest is all the plants my Dad was nice enough to transplant to me from his yard
after I told him I wasn't ready for them yet I keep putting them in a bucket of water and then drying them for a day repeatedly to keep them alive.
Then, I'll pressure clean the entire back dock and patio areas and make it nice back there.

Thank you bud...yeah, an awning is in the future plans after painting the house...was an immediate plan if I was going to keep either of my cars outside, but now it'll just be a car wash spot. I get along great with the neighbor though, I don't even have to wear any clothes to wash on the side there.
I also have a covered patio for when it rains and to bbq.

Speed, camera settings, the face, etc.
You lie, you already know how to do all that! The face, I can teach you...it's blue steel and lots of luck! haha...
Thanks for the sentiment though, I was pretty proud of my ability to take a self rolling shot AND get my face in it etc...was a little hairy hanging the camera out the window that far but with the 11MM wide angle and going no more than 30 mph and having the strap wrapped around my arm. I made it work.

I am serious, angle that I love the most.
Made the TL look wider
Thanks Meeks! I do love her...she is gorgeous still to me. I see no reason to move on. Still enjoy driving it chill and every once in a while I'll buzz her to redline in 3rd and still smile. I sometimes forget how fast she can be when you push it.

Dennis, I'll talk you through it! It's easy...especially now that I have experience.
Meko, Steven, Thanh...thanks so much, fellas.
Nawwwwww man...that's a 60". I noticed when I take pictures with my wide angle it kinda shrinks down the middle a bit (same with the baby looking water heater in the next picture ). We bought it last year, if we go bigger, it'll be in a LONG time for now!
though...your comments really are appreciated, y'all.
Pressure cleaned the back and the dock, put the bulk pick up out and pulled out what I could to clean up the canal. That took all of yesterday, today I was going to pot some plants my Dad gave me but didn't get to it. Today, I woke up early and washed/waxed and gave the works to Betty's Cadillac. It needed it...mine will get it next week before our local meet. Then I spent the day rearranging the garage and hanging things up finally. Cleared a TON of space on the shelves. I actually don't even need the space at this point. LOL
ROFL...yeah, unfortunately the days of washing one car and then driving the other until it was not going to rain to get to enjoy it clean for a bit are over.
I didn't even clean my car yet...I wanted it to be a BIG difference when I clean it for the meet on Sunday.
