Popular Post Grandpadave52 Posted February 18 Popular Post Report Posted February 18 Spent the day recovering from the weekend. Friday night dinner out was nice. Saturdays trip down state and back was about 11 hours total. Kicked my rear. Good day and worth it though; daughter and I had great time together. Granddaughter didn't know I was coming and bringing her mother to the swim meet. Emotional day for her swimming her final collegiate mile event; wasn't a personal best, but by far, this seasons best time; gained her one position over her seed time. Prior to the evening and meet finals, all seniors are recognized along with their parents. Her dad made it there too. He missed her senior day recognition at the University. Week ahead, survive this round of bitter cold, likely some more snow, some domestic chores and maintain the bird feeders. Donut know if I'll make a donut expedition. HARO50, Bubba, Fred W.

Can't be many left in the wild in that state. That's over in the Amish area of Ohio, the second largest concentration of them in the USA (Behind PA). That reminds me, years ago, we vacationed in eastern PA. One day, I called into work to make sure everything was OK. There was a band playing in the background and my co-worker asked where I was. I said I was right in the middle of Intercourse (PA). She giggled. DuckSoup, Fred W. Hargis Jr, lew and 4 others 1 6 Quote
Larry Buskirk Posted February 19 Report Posted February 19 Brother called at 6:00 AM needed a ride from work to get a battery for their 2022 HRV. Calls for a Group 51R battery. Advance Auto wanted $218.00 and a $22.00 core charge. AutoZone 209.99 with a $10.00 core charge or 229.99 with a $22.00 core charge. Menards $117.00 with a $10.00 core charge, we got the last one they had. HARO50, lew, steven newman and 2 others 3 1 1 Quote
Popular Post BillyJack Posted February 19 Popular Post Report Posted February 19 (edited) Batteries from Menards are pretty reasonable. I bought two for the boat 3 years ago. This is tye first year I’ve left them in the boat in the cold. So far so good, but I will try the charger soon just to see.. Menards sells a lot of those batteries..
