This is a nice story about roasted nuts which is perfect as we head into the holiday season… I just completed an interesting car ‘repair’. It was not on my Mustang but it was still pretty fun. And, a pretty good repair success that I don’t mind bragging about. Yesterday, the...

Believe it or not, it is not too early to start thinking about Carlisle Ford Nationals in June 2011. I received an email recently from them that they are having a sale staring on Friday, December 17. In a separate email from them they had a little detail on club arrangements...

We got some light snow today. Not much accumulation but enough to get the trucks out spreading salt. I usually use this as the sign that the old Mustang should go away for the winter. It seems like I just didn’t get to drive it enough this year so...

I had a really busy summer due to some personal commitments.  I skipped the fall marathon that I have run for a couple years now because I didn’t have the time required to train. With things slowing down and the weather changing I am back to regular running. I...

Tonight I went through all of my photos and picked out some to share. You can find them in my PicasaWeb Carlisle 2010 photo album. I never want to have a single copy of any computer file and this especially true for my photos. I lost pictures once and...

I always stop and watch this in its entirety. Sometimes twice. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh4HE9bNHK4 “Custom vehicles. See...

Late last year I posted that I was almost at 50k miles when I put my car away for the winter. I haven’t driven it much this year but, earlier this month, I went for a ride and thought I would be back well before I hit 50k. It...

You may or may not have realized that I have been, in a sense, ‘absent’ from this site for a couple of weeks. No forum posts, no blog posts and no tweets. I was away on vacation for 10 days and then I returned to a need to get...
