Sorry about the passing of Steve's Mom, Azzy. Please extend my condolences to him, as well.

Sid, best wishes with your & your parents effort sorting out family issues. It can be a PIA.

I pissed off my siblings on several occations over Mom.
I don't know why my sisters think they need to get rid of all Mom's stuff yet either. It's not like the house looks like anything near a hoarder's. But they seem to want it completely empty and devoid of anything personal (worst thing you can do for alzheimer's).

On a good note, nice and sunny today, AND picked up and I drove the 928 around this afternoon. had forgotten what a pleasurable experience that is.

That's how I managed to piss them off. And yes I am the youngest of the kids.

Glad you had fun. It's 85 and sunny here, but I am sitting inside an open house waiting for anyone to stop by.

The feel, the smell, the sound...the grin that grows at the first acceleration and continues for a while after the drive is over. oh yeah!

Did you:
Bake a cookie
Open up a tub of wheel bearing grease in the garage
Put a drop of vanilla in each bathroom sink and toilet
Fire up the grill and put a rib on

Not going to be washing any vehicles until the salt is off the road, although we don't have the salt you guys in Misc do. The trip I made up there a few years back completely saturated my poor truck

There is a spray wash a few miles away that has high pressure(higher than most) and I can get our cars clean for about 1.75. Once in the garage I do a good wipe down of them. I did my truck on Wed. and it still looks pretty good. The van didn't come out that good but it's better than nothing.

I have no life..........

Went driving around some more in the GTS before it got dark. Pretty sure I made a nuisance of myself grinning while driving in traffic an all.

Pepper seemed to like sitting in the back seat behind me and sticking her head out from behind me when we stopped. She even said hello to the waitress at the Sonic drive in.

Went to the range.....it was muddy, raining and 42°..... I decided it would be a good time for low crawl to fire work.....

My HK was completely jammed up with mud by the end and the AR managed some pretty spectacular malfunctions.... Purposefully induced..... I don't often have to hose my weapons down before cleaning them
