Angry ginger Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 still hot out there, i cleaned up after my daughters party while the wife was off kayaking with a friend but instead of working on my jeep projects I am sitting in the ac in front of the telly. Need to strip and bedline the flares, install fender covers, sand and repaint some rusty areas and sand and bedline the side protection but all that sounds hot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I worked in my garage all afternoon. It was 78 inside the garage. I didn't want to waste the fukken day, and I had to get the place cleaned-up/organized. Also overhauled the grille for summer. Also changed the trailer hitch ball from 2" to 1 7/8"so I can haul the boat...………….hopefully some time this week. It still was hot working, but bearable. Most of the garage is done, maybe another 1/2 hour to finish, but going through my tool boxes will take half a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Ellie is still pissed off so she carves out the double stuff and replaces it with horseradish then gives them to Alex! Gee, I wonder who they take after!!

irv Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Cloudy/overcast here and currently sitting at 22 c, which is a welcome relief from the +44, with the humidex, that we experienced on the weekend! Spent most of Saturday waiting for our power to come back on in our park. At first it was just every other trailer, including ours, that had no power. I was able to run an extension cord to our neighbors trailer who had power in order to keep the fridge cold in our shed. Our trailer has propane backup for it's fridge. After some time and a large fuse exchange, we had power back but only for a brief time before all trailers went out through the whole park. A quick text to the park owner to inform her about the situation then a call back telling us the whole lake was out!! About 3-4 hrs later, we had power again but things were warming up in our fridges/trailers and some with young kids decided to go home prior to that. Our lot, which faces the west, was quite popular due to the nice breeze so we made the most of it by going tubing and swimming and relaxing in the shade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckf Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 Morning. Currently partly sunny and 62°. The front came through here yesterday afternoon with just a few sprinkles. It nice to have dew points back in the mid 50's instead of the low 70's that we had over the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I survived the weekend with out AC. My electric bill will be reasonable thank god. It’s 70 here with lots of rain coming in. Just dropped the race car motor off at the engine shop. Should be ready by Wednesday. Bent the crank snout when we hit the wall. Frame is at the frame shop getting straightened.

Also, was this the Oxford 250 weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going for 4 in a row Friday. Fresh motor helped a lot Not sure on the oxford race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
