Last Sat. I wanted to get my mom a laptop computer so she could do e-mail from Florida. She has a desktop computer at home , but did not take it
So we went out and bought her one , and Deb and Nicole got it all set up before we sent it to Florida in the mail.
Last Sunday I thought if we bought my mom a laptop , it would be fun to get Nicole a new laptop too. So I e-mailed Nicole and asked her if she wanted a new laptop. She said SURE !! So Nicole spent Sunday afternoon deciding the one she wanted and she ordered hers too. Yesterday they both got their new laptops. They were both excited to get them , and it was a good feeling getting them for them.
My mom has been a great mom all these years and Nicole has been a great daughter all these years.
Have fun with your new laptops!!
RAINY NIGHT TURNED ICY IN GAYLORD- We went to bed last night and we got some rain , which was strange with all the snow we got. We did not get a ice storm, but this morning the temps went below freezing and things are slippery outside. The city workers are out in the plow trucks spreading salt.
HEADING TO TRAVERSE CITY- By noon today the roads should be just wet with salt. So Deb and I will head out and go to Traverse for a little break from Gaylord.
1/12th scale Super Dozer Model – I got the steps and the headlight protectors and the floor built up to the cab level last night. I also did the first steps of the design for the cab walls .
Mon. morning I will get busy on the cab and should get the walls cut out and roughed in.
OFFROAD TIRES- Next month I will build the Terex Titan Dump Truck. That model will use 10 of the offroad tires . As many of you know finding tires is very hard. I bought 10 at Indy and that was ll the fellow had. So I ordered 24 more of them from him and I did get 12 of them just after Christmas. But I still have not got the other 12.
I contacted the guy this week asking about them. He said he should know more next week. I also ordered 24 more of them besides the 12 I am already waiting for. So it really is hard to get tires even when someone knows a place to buy them . He has to get them from Germany , so that must make it harder yet to get them. So I hope to get 36 more of them.
SNOWMOBILE PROBLEM- My engine light came on when I was riding it yesterday so I am not sure what the problem is.
