What kind of bolts, they must have had military specs to cost that much, maybe I was in the wrong business.

We just bought, on eBay, a 42,000 BTU heater to replace the 25,000 one that bit the dust. I should get it in the next week or so. I fired it up yesterday and it works like it should, sure made me feel good. It takes a lot of planning and thinkin' for any project now that we are retired. If I finish it too fast then I just have another project on the "honey do" list to do. We will have 67,000 BTU's, now if we can just afford the propane.

Got a new waterpump, Flojet Sensor VSD 4.5gpm. Had a Shurflo 5.7gpm ...really liked the output, but after replacing it 5 times in 7 years just got tired of changing it out when it started leaking, wouldn't start, wouldn't stop, etc. Each time was a warranty replacement, and the last was still in the warranty period when it failed a year ago but I just put in the 2.8gpm spare and gave up on the 5.7. Saw a CW sale on the Flojet, so decided to try it. When the package came and DW asked what it was, and I told her "new water pump", she asked rather harshly, "Did you get a different brand this time?" Yep, she gets a bit upset when her shower or dish washing gets put on hold while I go out in the dark to change the water pump. Hopefully that won't happen as often now ...for sure the Flojet is quieter.

Two axels and 2 more solar panels for the Airstream.
Paying off the CC is going to hurt this month.

It's at Tree's to These in Decatur Indiana to get some cabinets revamped and a dishwasher installed. Here's a before picture of the kitchen cabinets that will have some major modifications done. I'll post the after picture when it's completed.

 I had our roof resealed at Camping World a couple of weeks ago.
I have a list a long as your arm as to what we up graded to séance we up graded to a new M.H. back in 1997. 
Things do not last for ever. 
Just a thought.

Got myself a 2013 Jeep Wrangler for a toad..Something I wanted as a kid.Tucson is perfect for this vehicle.Saved 2000$ by going thru my AAA membership.Not knowing anyone in Tucson I contacted AAA and they have a car finder,new or used.After checking the jeep dealership, they first quoted 28k and then later 33k.AAA came up saving me 2k,and the finder got it from the same dealership but in Phoenix.Now to get the toad a hitch.
