Bob's Radiator?

Hi all! I'm a mountain dweller, and I'm coming down to the mainland for a new radiator tomorrow. I got a quote from Bob's that was much more reasonable than the quote from the mountain shop. (Like 70% more reasonable), and I was just hoping to get a little reassurance that Bob will do right by me? Thanks for the feedback!

My favorite thing is watching plants explore

The way a pumpkin vine searches for the next support or how a grape vine follows the path of its ancestors. I find peace in the beauty of the structure and the unwavering exploration.

Donkeys 🩷

I love that there is still a little bit of wild nature in Big Bear. Absolutely beautiful, IMHO.

Left hemisphere swelling creating art.

Pants are not just pants. Jeans are prison. These lines remain for hours after I remove jeans, even if they are not tight fitting.

Comfortable clothes for a comfortable life.

It was just character building

It started when I was 4. My mom would have me sit on men's laps. Is it just sitting? I would only sit there, right? I'd want to get up, and she'd remind me, stay there. I always stayed there until I started to wonder when I was about 14, and it was like the 29th lap. When is this wrong? Why do I sit here? You can just not. You could just go to sleep. I've had enough, I thought. First, the lawyer, then the city councilman, the real estate broker, the marina owner, the car wash guy, the doctor. Then suddenly. My brother's friends thought I was a ragdoll. That was the last time I tattled. Sometimes, you have to tell people what they want to hear. Married young, afraid of being sat in a lap ever again.

Watch you girls, it's not just a lap.

I did it! I finally got blooms from my high altitude Gladiolus! 7a

They are so worth the effort! 😍

Warped Tour made my Millennial heart happy!

Papa Roach put on a great show! I also really enjoyed Third Eye Blind, The Used, MXPX, Taking Back Sunday, and Lakeview.

We got a late start, and I only got to see Sunday, but it was epic!

My first Big Max female flower got pollinated today!

The vines on this beast must be growing 3 inches every day! I've been watching this gal all week, and she opened today! I hand pollinated in a private ceremony using a beautiful male flower as a paintbrush and have my fingers crossed that she grows into a big max pumpkin in time for Halloween!

High altitude, zone 7a

Baked potato bar on the baseball field waiting for fireworks. Delish!

It was so fun and easy! A warm cooler with a dozen baked potatoes and a cold cooler with toppings and drinks. I also brought s'mores, but this is the only photo I remembered to take.

Toppings were: Lawry’s, Garlic Pepper, Butter, Sour Cream, Chives, Cheddar & Bacon.

It looks pretty abysmal on xray.

I am a 38y/o female with OA, autoimmune disease, and past traumatic jaw injury @16y/o. I was only taken to the dentist twice as a child. Braces from 18-21y/o. Regular dental visits annually or more since. All work performed by western dental.

We shall see what insurance decides to cover...

Asking for replacement of partial (as I have the same flipper since 2009) and eventually 3 implants of those teeth. 1 cavity repair, 1 large filling replaced with a crown and possibly a second cavity repair.

Great show Big Bear!

Thank you, Big Bear and BBMR, for a cool free show! Awesome riders, skaters, and concert! I remembered more Alien Ant Farm songs than I thought!
