Just caught this thread. Sorry to hear of your loss Doc. Heavy times indeed last few years.

Congrats on your daughter tying the knot. I still remember some of your reports and mentioning teaching her to surf. Time flys!

The mechanic died of COVID...
So yeah.

I have a new Ranger and had a place do a wax job on it for me because I was feeling lazy and the weather sucked.
Dude backed into something and destroyed my bumper - truck was like a month old. Goes to the shop to get a new bumper - took a few weeks and in the process the body shop broke something else. I'm driving it because it's not a huge deal, but I've been waiting like a year or so for the part to come in. Called a couple days ago and they say it should be in "shortly". They were on a waiting list for the part apparently. Frickin annoying.

Aw shite dude... I'm so sorry...
I've had Covid twice now. Got the #3 booster right after I got over the second bout.
I firmly believe the vaccines at least greatly lessen the affects. Thanks, Jenny McCarthy....
