I see everyone has a lot of stuff going on.

Good luck with your moving preps JJ.

There must be a lot of service shops for Subarus in Colorado. When I was working out there I saw a lot of them. Seems they need a lot of maintenance.

Do you have white knuckles from the drive Chris? I would have been so tense driving in that.

I was cleaning the engine bay in the Mustang yesterday and bumped the emissions tubing to the intake manifold, and it snapped like a twig. It was really brittle and needed replaced anyway, so I grabbed some replacement tubing and finished that up. Then I noticed the fog lights weren't working. Found a melted 15amp fuse in the socket, so I got that fixed too.

On the way home from NY I hit a Coyote in Pennsylvania at 70mph :-( It cracked the front bumper cover and broke apart a plastic shield underneath near the gas tank. I drove home with dangling wires to the fuel pump. Until I can fix it properly, I used some PVC cement and a few black plastic pieces I cut out of some packaging.

And then the automated doggie door started malfunctioning so I had to re-install the old one until I get a new circuit board. Then Lola and Lucy were playing and managed to tear off one of their collar sensors and proceeded to use it as a chew toy. There goes another $45. Luckily I keep a few spares around :-)

Wow Chris, that doesn't look like any fun.

Everyone's been busy. I haven't done much of anything. Had last week off and we just relaxed.

Added a pair of factory puddle lights to the SHOHORSE. It don't take much to keep me amused.
