Luckily I'm the anti Arhie Bunker.


Fucker didn't budge. I figure the good news is it has nowhere to go so I'm going to drive it like this for a short trip, check it. I'm leaving the driver side alone, fucking burnt & it's already 98 degrees and 30%

Springs are like USB plugs. Always takes three tries.

It took months to get all of our CDs into iTunes. Note their location. An old box in the garage.

lol

Got up at 4, it was already 97, 105 in the garage. & it's humid so no work on the truck today. This is my idea of hell. A garage full of parts and an inability to install.

I can't believe the limiting factor is your desire not to be hot.

There is "hot" and bursting into flames, eyes filled with salty searing sweat, heat prostration.

I just spent 20 minutes maintaining the pool, with a sauna like breeze and I'm so hot I'm ready to get into an icecube bath. (jumped into the near jacuzzi temp pool instead)

Hot is 90s with a breeze, this is like trying to work in a sauna.

Maybe if it were needed to drive (although I might pay someone for that) but not for arguably silly mods.

If I get a cooler period before the end of summer I'll do it but at least now with 2/3rds of the kids here I don't have the inclination to do it.

Yeah, it's not THAT hot here but I get annoyed at anything stopping me from tackling things I want to get done.

I am not happy about the situation, reality is it's just too uncomfortable to do any extended time in the garage.

Greetings from Base Camp.



First full use of the Sequoia, we loaded it up with six adults and two dogs, an 80lb Shepherd & a 60 pound Staffordshire. Everyone was comfortable, everything fit. I put a bag on the roof but bet I could have gotten it in back behind the 3rd row. It's surprising how much space there is back there.



A few from last night & this morning.
