Got the horn to work in the D350. Now to figure out where the problem is with the heater. Fan works if everything else is bypassed. Picked up a package of fuses Monday. That's a start. Now to wait for a warmer day. Not working on it outside in below freezing weather when there is no reason to.
Snowed Friday night and most of the day on me in Iowa over the weekend. That wasn't good enough it had to follow me home. It snowed here Sunday evening and most of Monday.
I see a drip on the ceiling, so the snow on the roof needs to be swept off.

Got the Dodge through inspection. Still got some issues to address. Like in why do things work one day and not the rest. Oh well I have been wanting to make more updates anyway.

Is that really you? Welcome back its been awhile.

 

[cindybrat7]

Yes, just getting our lives back to normal, weather here is mostly rain, after two years of Bob being very sick and months of Chemo, losing 60lbs, broken bones from falling, and so much medication that seems to cause even worse side effects, he started physical therapy yesterday, our son and daughter have really stepped up helping him learning to walk and regain his balance, our son has finished two of our old rigs and he has learned very well from the old man

Our son can really lay down some paint,

Hope Bob's health stays on a better path. Also good that you have help and sare apparently hold up we. Yes it looks like your son got some of his dads gems. While Bob was fighting cancer I went through a round of it myself. Thank God no chemo, just 43 rounds of radiation. Wife passed away during that time also. That made for one rough year. Anyways that was almost 3 years ago now. How time flies.
May Bob complete progressing. Even after the cancer treatments its a tough road and your holding up as well as expected I hope. It's a tough road to follow. Anyways a rougher one than I had anticipated.
But anyway its good to have you back.

I’m so sorry to hear about your wife, the way things and the way doctors were treating him and telling us made it sound like it was to late, heart biopsy, bone marrow extraction, so many blood work, now physical weekly therapy, once a month chemo treatments, try to put some weight and muscle back into the old guy,

It takes time. Will Bob ever be the old normal? Likely not. But sure sounds like they are trying their hardest to torture the poor guy.

Yeah same here, the plow guys gotta be hurting bad this year with all these teaser snows that just melt right away.

Sound like a lack of planning thing. Never put the eggs all in one basket.

It's 45 here right now but supposed to drop to the 20s by weekend - this crazy up and down weather is making it tough to know when to switch to winter diesel!

Should have been out doing stuff. It was that nice.

Bob will never be the same no matter how hard he tries, walking is very difficult no matter how many times he falls, I am very thankful for our son, he stops by every day on his way to work to see if there is anything we need done, it been two years since we noticed something wrong with Bob, o well now it just heavy doses of Morphine and Oxycodone, and plenty of Beer,

Went out and worked on yhe Dodge a little. Why things are working now that didn't want to a week ago.
Still have a carburetor problem. Idle increases after the electric pump is shit off. So something isn't adjusted right as yet. Been running the pump at 3.5 psi. Well within range for the thermo-quad.
