I better get busy then!

We will not have the Muck Duck on the road by then, but I have to do something with this 401 that's in the machine shop right now. ;)

Maybe I can trailer the duck to AZ for some deep body massage????????

After being in the heat today, I think I may have to park the jeep until Ouray. I can't wait to get away from this for a while.

Maybe I should reconsider my trip down your way for a job interview after all.

Either that or find a house with an air conditioned garage if it works out...

Check out my gear ratio calculator

If you can't fix it with a hammer or duct tape you have an electrical problem.

Most of the houses here shave modern environmental conveniences, but you may want to stay away from the swamp coolers. It only sucks here for maybe three months, and sometimes it is better here than other places during that same time.
