Its come to the point where tgif means nothing to me!!!!
Retail sucks! Atleast I don't need to work until 3pm. Going in early to hang out at the store, dropping the monte back off at mavis tire next door. Got a shake in the wheel above 55mph & the creaking sound came back along with it.

Good Morning to some. Good Afternoon to others . Just got back about an hour ago from breakfast with some old friends. We talked about everything & nothing. But it was fun and good to see them guys again. After such a busy day yesterday I'm not doing anything today. After cutting the lawn ( twice) then edging it. Then helping my buddy install our New water heater. I went and washed the Monte also. My daughter saw me up there. So she stopped by to talk for a few mins & gave us a movie to watch. Not bad either. Its called PARKER ! Plus it had Jennifer Lopez in it . By then it was close to 11 pm and I had a hard time keeping my eyes open any longer. had to get up early to meet everyone. So we turned in for the night. But I'll be damned if I couldn't sleep thru the night. I think I was up about 4 times. Never fails I swear ! Well that's it for now. Its nice & Sunny out but a little cool out there. TADD Thanks for that PICTURE! That says it ALL. Its not just national BBQ weekend ! Fly your Flag at 1/2 staff on Monday if you have one . Remember for a few mins. That those Men & Women made it possible for us to BBQ with our family's Have a great day everyone

Just wanted to say before heading out for the long weekend that I wanna thank all of the veterans and current military on this holiday weekend.

Heroes don't wear capes they wear dog tags!

Might be a bearing issue?
Or a loose wheel? Just a guess...

i've re-torqued all the lugs the day after & again 3 days ago. I never experienced this issue before the alignment..the tires can't be out of round, the drive home from getting them was perfectly smooth & if I had a shake around 55mph, I think I'd notice it at 80mph..
& find it strange that creaking sound was gone the few days after the alignment & now all of a sudden its back & worse.

Mavis has it now, waiting at work.... *sigh* I hope its fixed!!!!
