  1. Been having trouble with my hip recently , pain off and on for months , it put me on the floor Tuesday morning, so I made an appointment to see my Dr . Was late to the office by 2 minutes and the Dr had left the office , last appointment of the day . So , they moved me over to the emergency side and did a CT scan , told me to go to the ER immediately . Tried to get a n ambulance to take me in , but there's a 3 hour wait , so we dive in . Spend the next 5 1/2 hours in the ER , lots of poking and prodding , am told to follow up with my Dr to get a referral to an orthopedic specialist for a possible hip replacement . The meds they gave aren't working too well , supposed to take every 6 hours , but the pain is back to full in about an hour and a half , fortunately I still have some from my fight with the table saw , took off about 1/2" of thumb a couple of years ago . Now , I'm waiting for the referral to come through and see what the Specialist has to say . Other than that It's been wonderful .
  2. The only problem with the pic is she's waving the checkered flag , not a green one . Everything else looks great .
  3. gorgeous , love it .
  4. Winner , winner , chicken dinner ! Great looking model .
  5. Been staying busy with my garden , picking banana peppers , tomatoes and zucchini . Wife and I have been able to go out to dinner now that the restaurants are starting to reopen ( at 25% seating) . That's really the only real inconvenience we've had to deal with , oh , that and the fact that the DMV is closed and I can't register my new toy !
  6. Well , it won't let me edit my lost pic message , so here's a new one .
  7. Looks like a highly modified Scout .
  8. The AMT double t kit has a button tufted pattern , or the switcher T has this , and the 23 Roadster has this ,
  9. Started the process of getting a whole home generator installed , no more hurricane/storm black outs for me ! As a plus , it adds to the value of the property .
  10. found these , I googled "IH 4200 front spindle and brake detail" , look at images , hope they help .
  11. Learn something new every day .
  12. Nice looking truck , have a friend that has one . Is it just me or does it look "off" that the rear wheel is not centered in the wheel opening ? Looking on line at the pics , there are trucks , obviously rebuilt, with it both ways , even and forward spaced . even forward ?????
  13. Jim , you need to slow down , you're making the rest of us look bad !
  14. Yep , plenty of "projects" to catch up on , finished getting the garden in and we sat down and made a list , it was 2 pages ! , now to prioritize and decide what I want to do and what to hire out .
  15. We're so fortunate to be retired and have a stable income right now . We don't go out as much of course , we used to eat out at least 3-5 times a week . Just grocery runs and out to the farmers market for fresh veggies . We have a couple of friends we see regularly , so it's not too bad . Miss seeing the grands though .
  16. Simple black hot rod , nice .
  17. Beast engine , tiny gas tank , better plan on short trips .
