OK maybe I'm not gonna go there, but it has been a Heck of a day. Not really bad, least not 'till the end. Forgot how much a pain in the patooky the Mongoose Rockadille was to work on. Has a real finicky derailleur system that has to be precise! But with no real guide to speak of. Jeremy was working on it earlier but through up his hands in disgust. Were I a smarter man I would have done the same, but I'm nothing if not persistent (and brain dead). Finally got it beat though (litterly...took a hammer to it) and that did the trick. Like the old saying goes "where brains fail, brute force prevails!" (that's our policy!) Today was a busy one the Pacific I put up last night was gone at opening this morning. These folks had bought a nice FS Elite from us a few weeks back and have been watchin' the Blog for what was new. Snagged it. The Schwinn Sidewinder we put together this am was gone before we could post it, sorry didn't even get a chance to snap a pic! And the Aforementioned Rockadile is bought and paid for as well (hence me being here so late to get it done for the lucky winner!) Thanks to our buddy Chip! For the awesome re-fer (ral)! Wonderful jovial fellow brought in his motorized Miyata, and wants us to gut it and put the goodies on a chopper we got kickin' it in the ge-rage! And we get to keep the Miyata! (hehhehehehehe)
The House Husband bit was fun today. Finally got the girls room together, hung with Izy fer awhile and gave her her leisure bath and baby oil rub (she loves her belly and face rubbed) then baked cookies for the rest of 'em fer when they got home. Should a heard them walking through the house "DADDY, WHAT smells so GOOD!" Very sweet!
Well finished the Emory cruiser, Hand made in Jacksonville, FLA (hand re-made in Clearwater, FLA) Shes a beaut! Was A LOT of de-rustication there, but I think the finished re-sult was worth it. VERY comfortable ride!
Well I gotta git, my eyes are starting to water lookin' at the screen! And Boy do I need a shower!
