    So Thanksgiving will be at your place right?
    If they're still here, that's a possibility. I have corn out for them to persuade them to stick around, but they haven't found it or are too dumb. They're all just relaxing right now.

    ..... formerly near the Wild Turkey
    Hey, that's @mmpsteve 's spirit animal.

    Yep, I gave the Wild Turkey spirits a ride for 40+ years, then figured out it was time to give it a rest. I remember most of those years, but some of it is lost forever.

    Been nearly 5 years, but I still crave it occasionally.

    Got home from Canada Niagara Falls last night around 5, ordered pizza, made a couple drinks and sat by a fire, done nothing but a little laundry today and that’s about all the effort that’s gonna happen. Canada was fun but expensive! Bring at the falls (tourist trap) drove prices up of course but damn. Drinks weee outrageous, dinner was too, everywhere. Gas is around $8/gallon, thankfully only topped off there about $40 and refilled in Pa. on the way back. It was a great trip tho. Thanks for not popping off with civil war 2 while we were unarmed in another country.
    Canadian prices are high everywhere there. Maybe not that bad but it's bad enough elsewhere

    Well was accelerating on the highway last Friday when suddenly my truck wanted to lurch to the left. Almost flipped the truck but I got it under control and pulled over. Looked at the wheels and couldn't see anything wrong. Tires were okay. So I started driving slow with the hazards and everything seemed fine, but I something had obviously happened. Got off the highway and headed home. We were going to change my brakes anyways, going to have to investigate this too.

    Got to a hill and suddenly the steering wheel started going a little squirrely, but manageable. Took about 30 minutes to get home going slow and letting others pass me with the hazards on (thank goodness for barely used country roads) Eventually got to my friend Scott's house, who has a lift. When my stepdad got off work, we investigated and lo and behold my driver side tie rod sheered off the wheel. Cost us less than $100 to fix, but Friday was not a fun day for me. Going to have to get a new truck here soon, ugh.

    On a lighter side, my bathroom is now fully functional, just not 100% finished. Hopefully will be moving in here in a week or two.

    Good job keeping control with only one-wheel steering.
