We have some tree limbs down in the back yard. I had to pull one limb out of the pond. The fence has some damage from the neighbors trees.

The FI qualifying was about as expected except for Vettle.

We're at the ballet - Nutcracker

IIRC, no nuts are actually cracked during this performance.

The coil springs were pretty easy with the right compressing tool. The problem is the height is still too high in the front. We cut half a coil and it just wasn't enough. The car looks like a mid 60's gasser. The correct AMG springs are extremely rare, apparently.

Didn't think this is what FALL season meant.



Limbs and still committing suicide. Won't venture out in the back yard without my hard hat.

This is from this morning before it got a lot worse. The trees on both ends of the photos have been hit hard. We are going to have a much different looking back yard.

Just a ice storm. It has been raining since Thursday and it got below freezing late on Thursday and worse on Friday. The good news is we have electricity and cable tv. The roads are not too bad, just wet. Many roads closed due to downed power lines and trees in the road.

Woke early with the little one here and made us all eggs benedict for breaky.

I have ice in my drink

Needed it too as I've just finished shampooing the lounge room carpet.
