Have to get the Suburban fixed so it’s ready for a run out west this summer ![]()

Looks like you’ve got a lot on your plate. What’s out west for you, Ohio?
![]()
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

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. ![]()
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 ![]()
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.
