The two pictures you see under.

Yes Bob and I have been doing a lot of work around this place. Friday was a great day. First Bob and I took the old steering wheel off of the Solar Bus, we have pretty much retired her. The reason is, she has been run into the ground. The poor thing is so rusted out, that I have taken her off the road. I have made comments about her body flying forward when the bus stops. That is how bad she is doing. But the neat thing is we can take part off of her and still use them. The problem that happen with the Jungle bus, one of the interns tried to pull the turn signal handle up. So the high beams would come on. He pulled it and it broke off. The reason is the high beam and low switch in on the floor. So now we needed to repair the turn signals. We do need to still use them. So Bob and I took the old one off of the Solar Bus and it works great. Only cost the time. No money at all.
The first picture you see is the starter for our Jeep. This went out on Thursday. So we pulled it and I went down to a parts store and bought a new switch for it, cost $32.00. So this day went well and just enjoy the company of Bob. We really have gotten a lot of things fixed and I know there are more. He and his wife are here until end of March.
Now the sad part, Saturday morning early, 3am got a call that our alarm was going off. Two of the interns got the call and ran over. They saw a couple of guys, ages 25 and up. They ran after them. But they still got away. Found out that they broke down the door to the Tack room. Pulled down the alarm panel. Just rifled through the draws. Really not sure if they got any thing.
I came over around 6am and saw my truck has been broken into. They just like to break in and look around and steal my change. Plus they took some tools too. The only problem I have is the mess they always leave. Just throw the stuff around and gone. That is why I have been parking it over here. They have done this four times at my apartment. I guess I should be happy that they don't break the main windows. The back window that slides back and forward is their way in. Boy someone has to be pretty small to get into that window. Now I just leave the door unlocked. No I think I should but, then I will not be sure when they come to visit me?

I had a opportunity to help out my cousin.

It has been a while since I have trimmed and cleaned out her gutters too.  Oh, the reason I am here now is because Jeanne and her sisters pl...
