Cool, I haven't decided how far I'm going yet. Just depends on what happens between now and then.

I was going to go to RocknRod Revival, but it's just too hot. I'm staying inside today.

Good to hear they replaced your ipod, Blake. I recall you had a problem with it some time ago.

It's 97° here today; hotter in town. I signed up for the whole trip. I just passed the free maintenance mileage so I will go for the out-of-warranty mileage next by going cross country and back. Two more days to sign up.

its 111 here now.

Just figure 8 racing at Irwindale raceway in SoCal. Modified 900hp cars. One got tagged trying to make it through.

I made the dogs happyand mad at the sametime. I turned on the sprinklers and closed off there room, then washed them off with the hose nicely.
They weren't to happy, but nice and cooled off.

Watching your dogs get wet was probably an interesting sight knowing how much they like water.

weather channel says its 106°, but i measure 110° in the shade and a cool 80° inside.
it must be nice to have so much free time and money to be able to do the whole mtts tour. i'll consider myself lucky if i can get the time and cash just for the first 2 legs.
still waiting on the f*&%ing damper
occ finally installed, why i did it today in this heat i havent a clue.

Getting the dogs wet was fun. Had to take the hose in the laundry room to run thm out, then close off the doggy door. Scooby broke through it the 1st time, but not the 2nd.

I just talked to Lavida, her and Vicky are at the carshow, Rock N Revival. On that account I'm drinking a beer here in my cool house

Its now 112 outside

It was 75 outsid, so i thought it would be a nice day for a drive. I went up towards Hell, got compleley lost in the process, but i had alot of fun. On the way back, I got in a race with a mercedes C230 Kompressor going 120 side by side on the freeway. God I love that engine damper :D
