Good Morning `Lou & thanks for checking in & reading that you had a great day yesterday & even got everything cleaned `up
Enjoy your new day lounging around until you have to return to work...
I still have about an hour to go b-4 I get `off work...It's been a slow/active night...LOL....

Heard on the radio that the stores are crowded & that people are out spending dollars...(I hope that's a good sign for our economy & that life is getting better for some) ?

Good morning all! I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

I had a low key day yesterday and went out to eat a turkey dinner. Then I was messing around with the Monte and the Vette.

I kind of look forward to getting down to two cars again and using the Monte as a daily driver. I may as well as drive it since I probably would not get all my money out of it. I like driving it anyways. The Vette is really fun to drive but not as a daily driver.

It looks like Rick S.S. may have got some SNOW Flurries

Hi `Justin, thanks for posting your sound clip, but you are right that your iPhone gave `out just when it was getting the great sounds...Sounds Powerful 4-Sure ~> EnJoyed

I hope that you make another one going through the gears...
ps. Happy that you have a bedroom gargage for your Monte I wish everyone had a garage 4 their Monte's & not have to leave them all alone out there in the bad elements of Mother Nature
========================================
Good Morning `Joe,
Yes, you may get more $'s for your Monte `if you stored it away, but to me life is to short for that...Monte's are meant to be driven & enjoyed...Wish you happy miles..
p.s. It's great to see that your Monte was nominated for this months MOTM contest...Good Luck

Thanks, 'Space. We had a fantastic Thanksgiving. My eldest daughter and her boyfriend came over and we enjoyed a scrumptious spread of tantalizing and tasty treats. The shop I'm taking the Monte to is very busy so I am on a waiting list. Hopefully I'll get it in for repair before Christmas, but it may not be until after the 1st of the year. It pains me every time I look at the quarter panel, but I know this shop does award winning work so I'm comfortable waiting until they can do the repair for me.

Hope you have a great Fridayday!

Thanks `Mike for your reply & I think that it pays to wait for the best instead of settling for less Patience is a good virtue, but I never like waiting for things 4-Sure...

Great to read that you had a great Thanksgiving...
I'm just about finished with my shift & looking forward to the rest of my day...

Wish you & member's a Happy Day ~> EnJoy
