Anybody from Georgia going up there?

Well, that leaves me out.  We have a dinner with a bunch of friends at 6PM Sunday afternoon.

Ok we had our meeting, and after everybody posted and called and said they'd be there. It was Gail and Me, Reese Graves, and Rick Osborne. That was a big crowd. After eatting we rode to the shop and Reese and Rick got to see just how many parts, cars, and tools were missing from what I normally kept in the shop. From the last time I was there until yesterday we had a few more things stolen and they locked the inside of the garage door, and I don't have a key for it. But since I'm renting it and have the rent up to date, I'll cut the lock off. Someone took my lounge chair that I always carried in the trunk of the Fiero, and the bag to haul it in. My water was turned on last week but this weekend it was turned off. I'm looking for a smaller garage. I'll store my tools and sell all my Fiero parts. Gary was going to come up Sunday and help me clean my car up and drive it to the meeting. Gary got sick and couldn't make it. Derek had to work as did Conrad. Charlie and Darrell had other plans. I couldn't get ahold of anybody else. But I did drive my Fiero to the carwash and back Sunday, just before the battery went dead again.

Sorry you didn't get the turnout you had hoped for. 
Also sorry about all the things that have been growing legs and disappearing on you.  :(

The next time you schedule your monthly meeting for a Saturday, the wife and I will certainly try to make it up there.

The orthapidic doctors checked me out yesterday and they were tickled at the progress that I was making. I got to see the x-rays on my shoulders and my leg, and I've got a bunch of screws and metal plates in me. They watched me walking with and without the cane and moving my arms and moving my leg and foot and said everything works great. They pushed down on my arms and I held the doctor up then he pushed up on my arms and I pulled down on them and I held him steady. He said I could go back to work or do whatever I wanted to do. Just don't pick up to much weight and I should be fine. He said it was alright to use the brace until I get built back up then try and go without it, he thinks I'll do great after everything gets retrained.....

So...it's time to go back to work...

I've already driven the gold 86 Fiero GT, 2 times and it still runs great. But it does have a bad battery. It's ruff on them when they sit for a year.

The leg is doing great. But I did find out that freon went up alot since I last purchased it. I think I need some in my gold 86GT. Sitting strikes again, on a new system.

Go with the new H.I.D. lenses.  Best of luck, and let us know how things turn out, Rob!
