    I fixed our gas dryer today, since it quit heating yesterday . My Wife did the online research, and sent a few vids. to my laptop to watch and learn from.
    So I tested a few sensors and two coils with an Ohm meter and found out that one of the coils was bad. Thank goodness the parts store is still open.
    Also fixed a fuel leak on my portable generator and then decided to replace the old muffler with one from a Moho genie. Gonna gas weld it tomorrow.
    Time to enjoy some herb and relax. :rasta:

    I’m having the best trout season of my life! I don’t even see anybody......I’m averaging two hours to catch my limit of six. With the higher water the fish are biting and fighting harder. A storm is coming Thursday so will be flooded for 24 hours after....4R is running better than it ever has just filled up with high test.....

    I re-joined the 4Runner club with a 2020 TRD Pro. Traded in the Tesla. Previous to the Model S I had a 2002 4Runner that we put over 260K on it.

    Well....

    Looks like I am going to have to cut my blood pressure medicine in half AGAIN. Hoping to eventually not need it at all.

    Well, I dropped my phone in the trout stream for a few minutes. Thumb button doesn’t work. I’m due for an upgrade. I’m thinkin the IPhone 11? It looks like it doesn’t have the thumb button. I’m pretty excited!!

    Heading to Zwolle louisiana monday to do some fishing and some camping. Loading up the rig early that morning and heading out that evening. I prefer to drive at night with traffic but with all this there may not be much anyways. Still distancing but a man has got to live a little and enjoy the outdoors.

    Well I looked through them all and just picked the IPhone 11 max pro. In green, well it’s more like an aqua. Be here soon.....and it’s water proof to a degree...

    Sounds like you went with the top of the line. That is usually what I do and I am usually happy with my choice.

    Update on this on.
    Not so good news is that I returned the KC lights becuase they were too small and bought a set of Rigid 360 6 inchs lights.
    Wire harness is back ordered for a week but the Rigid lights are the business and fit great on the SDHQ mounts and no clearance issues when the hood is up.

    Started a new job a week ago. Old job was salary and worked 6 days a week usually 50 to 70 hours a week.
    40 hours this week was a welcome reward!
