2busy's Training Log of Solitude

When I can. Too much crap going on.

Have to get the Suburban fixed so it’s ready for a run out west this summer :slight_smile:

Looks like you’ve got a lot on your plate. What’s out west for you, Ohio?
:slight_smile:

Look at the ribs on that girl!

First thing I noticed too! What the?

Hang in there! It will pass before you know it.

Hahaha, when I worked in NYC, they knew Nebraska was somewhere past Ohio.

No, looking to make a run out towards Montana/Idaho.

It’s been 30+ years since I have been out that way.

She’s a bit skinny, lol

20160414 - Hockey

Scrimmage - 1 hour

Refereed a game between a team getting ready for the upcoming tournament and group of the guys from my Wednesday Night Men’s skate.

Wednesday Night Men won 10-0.

My knees hurt a lot. :frowning:

Uh huh…those horse pills are looking better everyday…lol Hope your knees get to feeling better!

20160415 - Suburban

Got most of the reassembly done.

Wiring all back together… Well I hope I got the driver’s side fuel injection right.

Intake manifold on.

Starter in.

Tomorrow is just:

Exhaust Manifolds
Engine cross member
Skid Plate
Spark Plug wires
Alternator and Power Steering
Belts
Heater hoses
Radiator
Oil and Antifreeze.
Battery

Try to start it up.

Oh… and I popped a rib when I was laying across the radiator support trying to tighten up a bolt on the engine.

That hurt.

At least now I don’t feel my knees so much.

That’s the spirit! Hope all goes well today!

Good news writeup and video on the Omaha AAA Hockey program.

I have two of the boys billeting at my place. including Max from Austria.

20160416 - Hockey

League playoff game - 1 hour

Won 3-0 so we get to play on another game.

No goals or assists, but I made a lot of good plays, passes, and several good shots on net. Knees and ribs felt good. I did put horse lineament on all the sore spots pregame, lol.

Team said it was the best game I had all season.

Next game is 4/17.

20160417 - Suburban and Hockey

It lives.

Playoff Hockey - 1 hour

Won 2-1.

Team scored 2 goals in the last five minutes for the win.

Three teams left in the playoffs.

We play the team that put us in the losers bracket again on 4/30.

When we win that game, we have to win 2 games on 5/1 to be the league champions.

I don’t do car talk. (That’s my son’s department.) But I do hockey talk. Very cool that you have kids billeting. Sort of like having foreign exchange students.

Well, I tend to be a hands on type of guy.

So I fix my cars myself.

The engine was $600 and a bunch of work, but my Suburban should get to the 500,000 mile mark now :smiley:

About the same as Omaha to NYC.

Made that trip a few times.

Missing 3 weeks cost me a few reps but now that I’m done with moving out of the house and have a working Suburban, I’ll back on schedule.
