    I realized something. As challenging as car work is, I rather do that then landscaping and weeding and such.
    Hate landscaping. Would possibly hire someone but the Trump economy has the gardeners turning down jobs.

    Find some that are willing to barter, i've been fairly successful on that side of things.

    OR look at CL and possibly (what's that thing there's a thread on?) neighborhood something. See if any kids there are looking for the occasional yard & garden job.


    With school coming to an end there's a decent amount of h.s. kids looking for work. AND.. being an Ag community, a lot of FFA , 4H and other Ag related kids who don't mind doing hard work.

    I ordered a transmission service kit and transmission filter is missing. Damn it.
    After talking to the rep, they are sending it out.

    At least they have a great service.
