Hello Men....It's been awhile since I been back here. I hope everyone is still in good health.
The new site looks nice.
Well... Does anyone ever feel like they are stuck in the movie "Ground Hogs Day" ?
Seems every time around this time of year...I reflect back on the summer and see
that it seems to play out the same as every other year. It starts out with the snow
melting away and the warmth of the sun beaming down on your face, sparks all kinds
of fun ideas that you have planned for season! Then Summer gets into full swing
and that warmth from the sun turns into a full blown inferno trying to cook all
the brain cells you have into nothing. But you don't let that stop you because you
are bound and determined to have all that fun you had planned on when that same sun was
gently beaming down warm rays on you in the spring. So, you push on and you DO
have all that fun....with just a few less brain cells that got evaporated away from the heat.
Then come fall.... it starts to cool down and you start to recover a few KEY brain cells that
start to remind you of some of the things you decided to do over the intense summer heat cycle,
where I believe most of the "Here, Hold My Beer " moments occur.
Now come late fall...early winter.... the sun is not so warm anymore, and you seem to be able to
have a keen sense of intellectual awareness, and are able to make very smart decisions.
This period is also where the brain produces VIVID pictures of what happened over the summer
heat cycle.
This Fall/ Early Winter Cycle is where I believe all the " What the Hell Was I Thinking " moments happen.
I have noticed a pattern with these cycles. They seem to repeat every year!!
Below IN ORDER are some pics of how this year went for me.
SPRING TIME :
New pistons for the 2021 rebuild! Yee Haa!! It,s going to be a great summer!!!
Engine log looks AWESOME !!!!!!
SUMMER TIME:
Having a Great time in the summer!
Holy Cow it's hot out! Ain't nothing gonna ruin this summer!!!!
FALL :
HMMM .... this looks familar ?
I don't recall installing the lifter that way! I also know for sure that I
installed straight push rods! How did these get in there?
You can now see how the SUN effects things ..... I see Grumpy is moving to Texas...
Me....I think Alaska might be a wise choice for me. I hear there is NO sun for about 4-5
months out of the year.
