Same here....I thought it was spring, but the weather felt more like November. Today is sunny and warmer so I'll spend some quality time with the Monte.

Happy Birthday, Gregg!! You're halfway to 100!

Morning All,

Nice cool ride to work today. High 30's I think. Sunny but cool expected all day.

Worked on the wife's Monte Saturday. Murphy's Law struck as I was performing some preventive maintenance. I was removing the IAC valve to clean it when one of the small mounting bolts broke off. I had to drill out the remains of the bolt. In the process I ruined the threads near the front of the mounting hole. Luckily there were enough threads further back to allow a longer bolt to get a good grip and properly secure the valve again. The IAC valve itself was so gunked up with carbon deposits that I bought a new one rather than just clean the old one. With 160K+ miles on it, I figured it was good preventive maintenance.

My son's high school theater work is done for the year. They performed the last few shows of 'Oklahoma' over the weekend. We spent Sunday afternoon tearing apart the set and cleaning backstage. The cast / crew party after Saturday's final show went until 3am. They deserved it; they all put in a tremendous amount of work to pull off such a great show.

Happy Monday everyone. Hope you have a good week.
