Hi Willy, Like most holidays I will just be trying to stay out of harms way. My wife tends to get a bit hyper this time of year. We host the Thanksgiving dinner and her brother returns the favor at Christmas. He lives about an hour away in south Jersey. What about you, going anywhere or doing anything special? Earl

Yeah, things are finally starting to calm down. I have had way too many projects going lately. Biggest hassle was determining what was going to replace my beloved little Jeep. It is great for a week or so but this last trip convinced me it is far too small for 30+ day journeys. I decided to take a look at trucks, determined a small one would suffice and narrowed the search to a Ford Ranger or Toyota Tacoma. I am now the proud owner of a Toyota Tacoma 4X4 Pickup, my first ever truck. I convinced the salesman to leave the bottom line open until tuesday when the new rebates are announced. The larger truck has a $2000 cash back offer which expires monday. There is a very good chance my little truck will get at least $500 in the next cycle. I'll wait a couple of days for that kind of money. Chrysler announced a free lifetime warranty a couple of weeks after I took delivery of my Jeep which inspired me to research more than just the vehicle for future purchases. It is a great relief to finally have that task completed. Now I have to decide what to do about modifying or replacing my camper. It didn't like the high winds at Padre Island, TX.

Thanks Linda, I had a very nice day despite the rain and cold. Glad I'm retired and don't have to go outside unless I want to. Earl
