I just put a new stereo in the Explorer. A Pioneer CD/receiver, 200 watts, with iPod input. Sounds pretty good, better than the old Motorola stock AM/FM/Cassette, which was dying anyway. And the Pioneer has a detachable face-plate, to deter theft. Of course, it took me like half an hour to figure out how to set the clock, lol! It's no Bose system, but it's good enough for the old Ford.

Added Maul to the list. You should have a good time. I hope Jethro decides to come. He can always claim he is just visiting his brother

How 'bout this snow, eh? And the weatherman says we'll get it ALL WEEK! Out like a lamb, my ***.

I was working in the asparagus bed in shirtsleeves yesterday. Quite a change today.

Oh, well, at least I put a new stereo in the Explorer on Friday. This one has an iPod jack and detachable faceplate.

There's one shot, at least, in my 8club photo album, you can check that one out right away. I'll see if I can find or take more soon.

Sorry I missed it, family stuff. I've seen the 3 rotor a few times now. I asked him how much he had in the car, he said something and his wife said double that number, lol. Then I asked him what advice he'd give to someone esle thinking about the conversion, and he said "DON'T"!

Wish I could have seen the fb, it's been a long time.

Man, I love those FB's. I miss my '80 so bad. Looks like it was quite the event. I noticed Shep's house in there. Did you start there, or just stop-by? Did you ever play cards?

Yep, it's only every other year until your car is six years old. I was off the hook last year but had to get emissions tested this year, no big deal. Passed easily.
Next year I get to take a pass again.
