Normally I would wait for a bigger pile. But I have a block and several other items, so I want it out of the way.

At the shop getting fw bearing done. Getting a tire mounted for dads van too. Pouring rain, I feel sicker than sick, otherwise I woulda done it myself. Plus it being Friday the 13th,something major probably would've gone wrong. I hate rain!

Pulling my engine again. I'm 2 hours in and the engine is ready to hook up and lift out. I'm getting way to good at this.

I filled my truck with Diesel yesterday and took the boat up and launched it for the summer. The manager told me marina gas was being delivered this week and it would be $4.75/gallon. That put'* a huge damper on hitting and getting it to the top of the Lake where the Park/Picnic area is. 11 miles @ the cost of 10 gallons of gas.

Not much planned today. Need to get some gas. And then clean up the shop a little bit. Want to make sure everything for my engine is all clean and ready to go back together when I have off work next week.
