Florida Visit

This week I had the pleasure (mostly) of visiting FL.  The highlight was getting to see Ryan, his new home, and his workplace.  Unfortunately, I did not get to see Abby who was out of state.

Trouble Befalls Me on Ryan's Day of Birth

My truck clutch decided today was the day to completely break.  I got a 105 mile tow and will commence clutch repair manana.  I highly recommend AAA Premier and Eddie's Towing (The Plains, VA).  Found out that Robert Duvall got out of the restaurant biz.

Update to original post - I acquired a flywheel, clutch kit, and rear engine seal, then took truck and parts to local shop (with a lift) for repairs.  They replaced my parts and also replaced the hydraulic line.  Labor was just under $300.  Parts were also about $300.  I'm back on the road.

Capt. Sack Greets New Arrival

A young dog showed up on the doorstep several days ago, and instantly became Capt. Sack's BFF.
He shall be named Rocky.  This is in honor of NM Rocky and Mary.
