Braised Short Rib Bene-Brunch

Had this at The Collins Quarter in Savannah Ga. If you happen along that way I highly suggest stilling here for Brunch.

Spiderweb Faceplant!

Imagine walking into this web and it’s in your face! I didn’t walk into this one, but the one before that I did. I jumped and dropped the dog leash and screamed like my daughter when she was two and a bug fell on her. 😅😳

It’s a Dog Beer Afternoon….

Just got done filming on a tv show. Got home and enjoying a later afternoon beer with Jett…my trusty Labrador companion. 🐕 🍺 🌞

Jett ❤️’s his bone!

Jett is the best dog. So sweet and loving. Our boy sheds like 5 dogs but he’s the best. He loves his bone, looked so cute I had to take pictures!

P38A: is it a timeless classic or a trash heap queen?

I love my 2001 HSE P38A and its “classic” boxy shape. These were very controversial and some people love them and some people hate them.

This particular one I did a lot to work out previous electrical gremlins. I deleted the immobilization capabilities, upgraded the RF receiver, heads, deleted the air ride (done by previous owner actually), and various other things. It has a custom rumbling exhaust letting the V8 breathe.

The clear coat has been coming up in the bonnet so it’s going to need a respray and I have not gotten to the interior yet. The carpet is shot and I need to replace it. It’s faded and stained blue where the coolant leaked inside at some point previously. That issue was resolved with a dash out service before.

There is always something to do so I do see why they are hated. Sometimes it’s difficult to keep up with the small things. However. I drive it down the road and forget about it all.

What a way to start the day!

Near my home are about 5 different parks equaling hundreds of acres. This place is 5 mins from my home and is 250 acres of trails and fields and there is rarely anyone there.

1990s Zodiac GMT

I have 7 vintage zodiac watches. This is the “newest” one I have of the brand. It’s from the 1990s and it’s a classic GMT. Dress up or dress down with it. One day I’ll get a newer zodiac.

Power wash Deck, table, chairs…(how to make a table disappear)

This is only part of what I power washed.
Concrete below deck 80’ by 13’
And then a 60’ by 13’ deck
A table & chairs
Took me days in between work, life, and rainstorms.
Next step? Water Seal. 🤢🤬😳😅🤣🫪

Alpina 3 Japanese Import

My friends own a Performance/Foreign Auto Repair shop. Their client, not me, just got this dropped off from Japan. I got to ride in it today. They are doing a complete tear down and redo. I was drooling on the interior seats!

Pressure wash = Magic 🪄

Instant gratification. Power washing the deck before putting a water seal on it. Did it about 14 months ago. We live under trees or very close. It’s amazing how dirty things get. It’s very gratifying to do…albeit it takes me days.

Hot Summer. Cold Beer.

Power-washed outside for 6 hours yesterday. Then I sat down and drank a very cold Pilsner. Then 3 more.

Ringless Honey Mushrooms (Desarmillaria caespitosa, formerly Armillaria tabescens)?

These are growing out of a mulch bed. Not sure the type but they were cool. 😎 I love mushrooms 🍄

Orange-Striped Oakworm Caterpillar (Anisota senatoria).

Saw her on my walk this morning. They eventually pupate underground and transform into a bright orange-brown moth (Anisota senatoria).

The Susan’s are brightening up my front walkway in the late afternoon sun.

To restore or not, that IS the question….

Would you leave as-is or restore?
I’m a “keep it original” guy.
And, when do you restore a dial? If ever?
Just looking for a discussion here as I think though this.
Thanks
