Cheers Russ. Some PBR, the dirty cousin of Lone Star.

I like the early years of the Twinkies. With the good crank and timken bearings, it's about bulletproof with a set of gear driven cams

Iced coffee in awhile. Thunderstorms arriving. Gonna be wet for the next 24 hours or so. We need the rain. Lawn is already cut and there isn’t much of a growing season left. Just curtailing a future fire hazard at this point
