Light posting today as well

My truck is about twelve years old, close to 200K miles and due for a bit of an upgrade. Picking up a three year old Ford F-350 with 20K miles this morning. It's got a big diesel engine so it isn't even broken in yet. It will be interesting as I have been a General Motors driver since the late 1970's. Making the conscious decision to vote with my dollars and buying a Ford. Maiden voyage will be to drop some tax stuff off at the bookkeepers, pick up my Dad's ashes from the Funeral home and then drive down to beautiful Everett, WA to visit the Harbor Freight store and Homebrew Heaven. Harbor Freight is having a $20/off sale on this hydraulic wire crimper. I don't work with enough large gage wire to warrant the cool $300 tool so this will work just fine. Homebrew Heaven is having their annual Hop Rhizome sale. I have a perfect place for some hops plants and have been meaning to get some for a couple years. I'll be planting two each of the Cascade and the Chinook hops -- my two favorites for brewing. Costco has one of their business centers in that area so I'll swing by there as well...
