$6.99 a quart for Valvoline at the local NAPA store. Best price I found last week.
I went to check the receipt online and noticed the price is now $12.29 a quart for the same stuff. But Google shopper still shows the $6.99 I paid. Glad I bought it when I did.

I watched the 1963 Daytona 500 on Youtube. It was broadcast in 1963 on ABC's Wide World of Sports.
They did cut away twice for an Alaskan dog sled race but the coverage was pretty good.
Tiny Lund won the race.

Making a ton of chicken lasagna with the wife. Pretty labor intensive.

The trees guys will be back tomorrow to remove one tree of ours and cut some big limbs off another. I could go solar now with the amount of sun the roof will get. I went ahead and bought a water pump for the jeep and will install it and a thermostat tomorrow. Could change the oils in the front and rear axles and transmission if there is time too. Three bolts broke and I had to drill one out and re-tap the hole. Nothing is ever simple. Got to run to Ace and buy new bolts now.

Every simple job is one broken bolt away from becoming an all day affair. Feel your pain.

Worked on a couple of mowers for some customers and ordered parts this morning. Built and installed tomato cages this afternoon. About to wind it up for today and indulge in a good bourbon drink.

Pulled purge float outta a rust bucket and replaced. Pulled fitting where purge pressure transducer is and check valve stuck. Cleaned , but still sticking. Ordered the $938 replacement. A bit much, but summer here and a hospital. Then with co worker, looked at a:c unit in hr. Nearly impossible blower motor to get to. Hopefully just replacing bad capicator fixes.

I replaced a winch on a airboat trailer and loaded boat on the trailer. It was one I had been getting ready for froging. I delivered to a friend at his camp and helped him change out a gearbox on another airboat.
