OrrieG did not die....

I just noticed that I have not been on the site for almost a year. I just did an update on my build thread. Short version is my wife have had non covid related health issues most of the year and I have had to take up the slack around the house and garden. Things are calming down and in early January we will know what the status is. I have been working blocking the truck and shot what I hope is the final blocking primer just before the weather turned. I tried posting some pictures but got an error message. Hope to get back and be more active soon. Patrick

Re: OrrieG did not die....

Me too, I made this big move to Idaho and with a number of different things, the covid crap, me out of a job for months, I just haven't felt like working on my truck. Hope to be at it again and finish it up!

Re: OrrieG did not die....

Life does indeed get in the way and the older we get the more often it seems to get in the way.

I didn't go check for your last post but If Joedoe says it was that long it was that long.

Lets see those progress shots when you get a chance and check in once in a while.

Repairs on OT rigs seem to take up too much of my time lately.

Re: OrrieG did not die....

If you’re running macOS Mojave with the latest update it didn’t let this site work when you click the choose picture button.

The cure for my MacBook Air was to upgrade to macOSBigSur now I can post pictures on this site again .
