Happy St. Patty's Day!!!
















Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my Irish family, brothers, and sisters.

Today I will raise a pint to my older brother who passed less than a year ago. He taught me to be a proud Irishman, and he loved this day more than any other. I'll shed a tear, then I'll drink a beer, and I will forever hold you dear. Everybody sing loud and sing proud. Raise one up for Scottie! Enjoy! Happy St. Patrick's Day.

My effort at being a photographer.

Now we're getting somewhere.







































The mock up has begun. I've been waiting on parts, so it's been a bit of a waiting game. Now things will begin to come together, and it will start to look like something. I like where it's going so far, and I can't wait for it to take shape.

Some People's Children







































Somebody's kid cost me eight nuts and a whole bunch of time because he or she didn't know how to put an engine back together properly. I tried to double nut them, but the setup kept twisting off, so I resorted to this. All is right in the world now the studs are out, and the engine can be put together properly. I'm sure that person's ears were ringing for a while because off all the cursing I did in his or her name. I guess it the price they pay for the agony they put me through.

Some jobs are better farmed out.


















4 hours in, I have only the bottom half done. I still have one more and the heads to do. It's time to send them out. I have no problems with the dirty work, I just don't want the second coming happening first.

The hard to reach places

Why does the gasket always stick around the pins? Seriously, it's a sick joke right?
