November roll-call.

Howdy All,
Getting ready for 4 days off for Thanksgiving and the start of the competitive running season for the dogs. What is going on with everyone?

Just 16 days and 14 hours away from the one-year anniversy of my latest love ... the 450SLC.

Cost less than the "ex" - even though I've spent more on "her" than any other vehicle I've owned during my lifetime this past year...

She fun and I'm still enjoying having "her" around.

Here! Doing the college thing. Being busy, chillin' with friends and such.

Hopefully this month I'll be resolving something with a peachparts member and stuff can go ...well...not back to normal. But just...be normal. Wish me luck!

Still here.

I finished the front end rebuild on the 300TD and the 300SDL, now I'm doing some bodywork on the 300CD and installing the trap/ox bypass pipe.

I woke up to frost this morning. I hope we have a few more warm days left to wrap this stuff up.

Tuesday is a public holiday down here, for a horse race. If any one wanted to invade Australia, the best time to do it would be about 2.45 pm on the first Tuesday in November. Every one in the country is watching the Melbourne cup. Most have a 4 day weekend here in Victoria. Forget about trying to get anything done today (Monday)!!

Present, mostly accounted for

Plans for November haven't yet declared themselves. Probably safe to assume they'll include working on the house, working on the cars, taking care of Ed, taking care of the zoo, and trying to squeeze in a little bit of fun where and when we can.
