Now that our lakes are at normal level (they were closed due to flooding), I should have my season maiden voyage Saturday and go out again Sunday.

I think we are heading out with Cobalt 200 on Lake Sammamish this afternoon. There is an on water party with a band playing from shore. They have fireworks on the lake tonight. Hopefully the weather holds....

Sounds like GW's 92 year old mother! Yup, she still drives but she's not naive enough to think that's a Hawaiian good luck sign. She's a very savvy old gal and I love her!

Prober, WELCOME to the warm side of WA!!! Your temp estimates maybe a little high, but not too much. We usually have a couple of weeks where the temps range from 100-110, but then it cools off to a very comfortable 90's range for the rest of the

Who's going boating this weekend??? by GoFirstClass @ Today at 11:26 AM

Who is planning on hitting the water this weekend? Are you going out to watch fireworks from the boat? Any long distance tow plans? GW and I are taking her 92 year old mom and our next door neighbor lady out this evening. We'll head out about 8:0

the boards were so rotten that they came out like mulch!! I took the panel off the cieling as well, the corners were all rotted as well. I had to place a 1 x 1 3/4 piece around the perimeter on the cieling. I had to glue a new panel on the

Re: Important info re: CFL's by Andyk2 @ Today at 10:01 AM

Light quality is subjective but IMO LEDs are bright harsh kind of light. Think of the ones in stop lights or tail lights on a car. But as the technology grows, I'm sure they will have more adapability potential then CFLs.

If you don't want funky devices sticking out of your ear, try AnyCom speaker I have one and they do the job. I bought 2 for $100 (one for my daughter). Ideally, you stick them on your windshield and the solar panel keeps them charged. Altho

Flushing DexCool by BillyB @ Today at 09:09 AM

I will be flushing the Dexcool from yet another Impala on Saturday. But this time, it's older and the crud in the radiator is a little worse than others I have done. So my question is this: Should I just flush it with a lot of water, or would one o

Not sure how you could be. It was a reference to him playing for the Penguins (My favorite team), but signing with the team that beat him in the Finals as soon as he could. Smart move on his part. Bad luck for my Penguins.

Neat! Must have Java for it to work.

Re: Recommended hands-free bluetooth? by markas @ Today at 07:34 AM

Got the original Jawbone; thought it was excellent. Upgraded to the Jawbone 2 - much smaller, better mechanical design; love it even more. Can't imagine using another (unless there's a Jawbone 3 coming...). Get on YouTube and do a search on Jawbon

Thanks Dave for the insight. A "U-Joint Press"? Sounds like more tools. Anyway, I'll read up on the manual and take your advice. I'm hoping the u-joints hang in there for the time being.

how easy is it to re-charge my cars A/C by prober @ Today at 02:48 AM

My '05 Expedition does not seem to cool as well as it used to. It has 60,000 miles and is in perfect shape and the a/c works but I am thinking it needs some refrigerant. Of course it could just be that the 105 daytime temps are just more than it want
