So what's been happening? Well let's see here...Buggy - Buggy is running great. I de-leaned (richened) the amount of propane hitting the mixer and the motor is running strong. New tires are working out great as well. Still have an electrical issue I need to figure out (poor ground, bad battery, bad connection to starter? I'm not sure which of those three). I tried welding with a wrench while replacing the cable end connection to my starter. Had a bit of a fire when my wrench touched both the positive connection to the starter and a brake line running below. That was fun. I took Catch22 to the Mounds Challenge. Had a good time. Found out Catch isn't real fond of getting muddy ('8 I also won a high-lift jack!
House - I actually made some progress over the last holiday weekend. I ripped out our old upstairs railing, cut out part of a floor joist, and framed in a new half wall that ties into the existing floor joists. Kirk came over this week and ran the wire for lights, switches and outlets for Mikey's room (bare studs right now). I'll be spending this weekend cleaning everything out of the room, removing insulation, adding nailers in the corners (for when we drywall) and re insulating. Man I hope it cools down for the weekend.
Work - We just got in a pretty sweet piece of hardware for the golf academy. It's a ball flight tracking system that records EVERYTHING about your hits - AND it uses doppler radar to do it. Pretty expensive, but we are one of two places in the state that have it. My swing still sucks......
