Well, its been like 2 weeks, but it looks like I get the Aveo back today. I got pretty spoiled driving the Autoselect Van around, but it will be nice to see how the Aveo is running and get back to good gas mileage. New engine, tires, clutch, brakes, rotars, and they even threw in a replacement gas flap that had blown off on the highway.
New engine has only 32,000 miles on it, so hopefully this one lasts and I’ll surely be replacing the timing belt after 70,000 miles. (they put a new one of those on the used engine). Even after the brakes, rotars, and gas flap for free it ended up costing a shit ton of money. This better fucking last me!
I’ll be playing some Comedy City shows in August so I’ll be sure to post them in case anyone is available to make it.
We had an awesome time in Bear lake last weekend. That is such a peaceful campground, and if you don’t mind not having electricity I would venture to say it has to be one of the best for privacy and incredible views from each of the lake side sites. Its a private lake with no boat landing, so no motors or people being obnoxious on the water. Only $12/night. Nice out houses, and not only is there Bear lake on the grounds, but about a 1/4 mile down the road is little Cub lake that has no houses on it and just a trail leading to it. Very beautiful set up. We got a marinated spoon roast from Festival, cut it into strips, and roasted them over the fire with sticks. That was incredible! I suggest it to anyone with a fire to try it!
This Thursday we head up to the U P for our annual stay at Laura’s sister in law’s grandpa’s cabin. We’ll shoot fireworks over the lake, and I think this year we’re even going to a rodeo! That should be fun!
Also, laura and I are looking into buying mopeds. There are a lot of places online that offer them for VERY cheap. I’m talking about $700 bucks each brand new, and that includes shipping. For every one you buy the price goes down. Anyway, I know since its shipping to GB that could pose an issue, but if anyone is interested let me know and we’ll be buying in bulk to make it even cheaper. So far I think we’ve got 4 mopeds coming here. If anyone is interested in getting one in our shipment let me know. Otherwise, it is worth it to look into shipping where you are and getting people who live near you in on the deal. Very low maintenance, incredible gas mileage, fun, and kinda useful for quick trips around town.
Is anyone else getting SUPER pumped for the NFL season? The Packers look like a contender, and considering the possible lock out I’m very excited for this year! Should be fun! We gotta plan a Nakoosa weekend or something to take in a game! (like how I offer up your inlaw’s place Sam?)
Oh, one more thing…..anyone have any suggestions for cell phone providers? We’re looking into shopping around and looking for deals. I’d like to have a little better text/usage package. AT&T has run its course I think.
Hope everyone is well.
