Going for a 800ft fight tonight with the drone.

 

Wasn't cheap Heading to Colorado in 1 month and getting some of the preventative maintenance out of the way. Going to run it up Pike's Peak along with some other mountain passes and a couple off road trails over looking 12 to 13000 feet. Everything i have seen shows the trails to be easy and 2wd shouldn't be a problem. Figured it was time to make it do some truck duties. Just hope i dont scratch it

 

Word to the wise, take small circles around "home base" until you know it's fixed properly. Nothing like going 10 miles in a straight line away from the shop just to end up needing to get towed home

 

Yes -- that's why my run today was only 4-5 miles -- I didn't want to get 15 miles out and then have the wheel freeze up on me again! I was fully expecting to have to have it towed back to my garage this morning and figured I had gotten a bonus by having the wheel "unstick" itself! I'll take baby steps with it until I know for sure that it is fixed properly -- and will make sure I have my AAA card on me just in case I need it.....

 

 

 

I know the area...been out there a few times...used to go watch the races up pikes peak.....have fun....there's lots of neat places and things to do out there

 

I get all kinds of slivers....metal filings, fiberglass , wood, and the latest was carbon fibre....don't worry I keep up on my tetnes shots...

 

Supposed to get up 92* up here in North Dakota today....but back down south at my house the high is going to be 82*....???

 

Nice and cool here this morning.

 

Perfect weather the last 3 days...back to 90 degrees and humid.

 

Just woke up -- went back to bed after the wife and boy left for school this morning to see if I could sleep-off that turd the Vikings laid on Monday Night Football last night! Didn't work -- I still feel like I stayed up drinking all night, which given how the Vikings played, would have been a far wiser decision.....

Last day of vacation for me -- back to work on Wednesday!

 

That's really warm for NoDak this time of year -- by the time you hit September in the Upper Midwest you can usually say goodbye to 90-degree temperatures for the year, except for maybe that "Little Havana" out in Rapid City that always seems to have unusual weather!

 

Bonfire at Jim's house this weekend.......

 

Sounds good to me!

Getting ready to go and run some errands...grandparents day at the 7 yr old's school yesterday and that just about took up the whole day.
