Well, it still is a school day. So, I helped set up the kitchen for Chef Gray. (that's my lovely wife, (JEANNE) Okay so the students will be here very shortly. Jeanne wants everything is place, so they can make Chocolate Covered Strawberries. Plus.
Here are a few of the items she used for the students to make.
She has white chocolate and dark chocolate. Okay. after our dinner with our grandchildren and daughter in law. You will see how nice things came out.
We needed to stop at Sweets Jewlery. Jeanne had ordered a couple items for Christa and Cashlyn. So, while waiting for Jeanne I was outside watching the Brightline Train went by. They have been trying to get a train station in Fort Pierce here for a while now. Prayerfully we will get it. I know Jeanne and I would really like that. This way we can hop on and go south or even north and west too.
Okay, our grandchildren plus mom showed up. We are at Francisco Italian Restaurant, in Post Saint Lucie. It worked great for Krista; they live down this way. Plus, she didn't get out of work until after 6pm. Kind of a small place, but the food was pretty good. Plus, the company was excellent.
The folks around the table. Me, (Tom) my love, Jeanne, Cashlyn, Krista and Kaden. We had a nice conversation about the BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY. Yes, the children are getting older and next month, Cashlyn is going to be 16 years old, and Kaden will be 18. Plus, we got some what caught up on what has been happening.
Afterwards, Jeanne and I went back home and had a chance to have some snacks.
Hey, take a look at this strawberry. WOW, I think it is 3" across and 2 1/2" high.
Plus, my baby made some chocolate covered Oreos. Plus
BUT look at this beautiful STRAWBERRY. Now that was very tasty and filling, after eating pasta and bread plus. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and good time in getting together.
Hey, these grandchildren are really growing up fast. Kaden was telling us that him and his mom bought 2008 Dodge Ram Truck. I think he told us, $8,000. I have been looking at truck prices for a while now. They are going thru the roof on prices. The sad part is, Next week I will be taking my little Range for a ride over to Tommy Ray's Gauge. He will be putting in a 3L 6 Cyn. (rebuilt) engine in her for $3,400.
I did talk with another mechanic, Mark Up in Vero Beach area. he was telling me that I should put in a brand-new motor in it. This way you should not have any troubles with it for at least 50,000 miles, maybe more. He gave me a price for double what Tommy rate. He thinks $7000.
Well, I have taken money out of the 401A. To cover the cost for Tommy's work.
I have been thinking, this to me is the best way, for the money. The body on the 1998 Ranger is in great shape. Transmission sound good. I did have Tommy, put in a new fuel pump last years.
My prayer is, Please Lord help me know which way to go. Folks I really don't have money to waste.
I have looked online for many things. Even a rebuilt engine. Cost run from $1,500 and up. Tommy told me, if he is going to do it. He wants to buy the motor. He told me that he has been dealing with this company for many years and they have not steered him wrong.
I will keep you posted on that after I drop it off.
My prayer is, Lord please guild and direct our steps and the path you want us on.
