I wouldn't drive your tractor. The piece of******would break down and then you would blame me. Just like the golf cart.

And I know all about snowblowers. I know I don't go where they use them.

Mikey,

Glad to hear your Dad is doing well and you are enjoying yourselves. Look forward to hearing about your adventures when you get back.

Well, we did it!! WOW!!
When the big 32" TUBE TV fell out of the cabinet while on vacation, we decided to upgrade to a 32" LCD Sharp flat panel TV, and at the same time, add alot more room to the living room. (Removed entire entertainment center) It was nice, but sure took up alot of space. These are Pic's of the before and after, and there are additional Pic's in the Photo's section. It really came out nice, and as you can see, in our case, it added alot more room.
Also added an extension to the overhead cabinet over the dinette to relocate the distribution box, switches, boost switch and all the other stuff. The frame around the new TV is the upper part of the original Ent. center, just cut and modified to work.
Also did the same for the bedroom TV, pictures upon request.

Enjoy.

David

Happy to hear some is cool....... Tom said it was too hot up here, and it was hotter down there lol.
Its still raining in Oklahoma and we leave in a week, hope it stops.
I was working on the coach in the hot sun today fixing a few things, got about everything ready need to go shopping for food and fill some water jugs for coffee, and clean inside a little more and we are ready to go spend way to much for fuel. I have been looking into CNG(compressed Natural Gas) conversion, but no one can do the job or won't. New Engine $50,000.00 I don't believe anyone is even trying to find new ways to run cars or trucks.
Hi Mac,

Over the last 15 years we have tried experimental units at work (Refers & Tractors) on CNG and they also seemed to have a lot of problems and malfunction so we are back to running just strait diesel units again. Of course we don't pay the diesel price at work that they pay at the pump, we buy it in bulk cause we have our own tanks.

Nice Job Dave. That really seemed to open up the living room.

Well the trip has now taken a wrong turn again. Candy is not doing well and we had to take her to the vet today. There is a really NICE vet here in town It looks like old age is starting to take it's toll.
Unfortunately, we are cancelling Coos Bay and staying here in Newport for a day longer as we want to make sure Candy is ok with traveling before heading home.
It was foggy here all day and probably never hit 60 degrees. We are not looking to coming home to all that heat.
Keep Cool All.

OK, this is what started the new garage and RV parking project that is this summers task. The demise of my garage............thanks to mother nature, that WAS a carport attached to the garage. We are trying to get it all torn down this weekend!

Boys, boys, boys. Mac, Tom wants a tractor...Rindy won't let him have one, so we don't need to worry about safety issues. Tom, Mac just wants respect for the toys he has. Now, play nice!
You guys always make me laugh!!
Mike (& Linda), so sorry to hear Candy had to go to the Vet. I hope she is doing better. It is miserably hot here, you will wish you were still in Oregon!
Dave, your new TV looks wonderful (please don't show Bill, thank goodness he doesn't surf the internet). Happy Saturday. To any who are traveling or soon to be traveling, safe roadtrip!!
