Great job with the kids Daniel. I have started my grand kids on Y projects also. Here is one helping vac the 47 rat truck I just started building. I sent them home with a tool box of chinese tools I didn't need and boy were they happy. They loved the safety glasses and wanted to take them also. The only bad part was when they wanted to stick the vacuum hose on their mouth after sucking up all those little chocolate jimmies they were vacuuming up.

You know what, we could have our mini-meet sometime after the weather breaks. Only problem is, right now, all of these Y block powered vehicles are down for RnR!

The 3 of us have got to get together sometime soon. Y'all welcome anytime.

That's right Glen - especially when I have my father-in-law's interior apart and almost have the headliner finished. Man that's real work!

Tim, I hear what you're saying, and don't think I take God's gift of 3 wonderful children lightly - I am blessed, that is for sure.

Glad I could catch up in your FED project. Pretty cool!

Hey fellas, get this. My wife is getting in on the act more and more...

When I got the Y block mag and the PHR mag in the mail I got them out of the mailbox and laid them down on the kitchen island. My wife quips, "so you got your little goodies huh? Guess you'll be tied up in the bathroom a little while?"

"Alright, alright, calm down," I reply. "Listen it's not often that the mighty Y graces the cover of the PHR magazine. Look at these engines - I'll bet you don't even know which one is the Y block, they all look the same to you don't they?"

She sauntered over to the magazine, picked up, and in less than a second, put her finger on Eaton's EMC machine. "That's easy!" she said.

I just shook my head and asked for the toilet paper!
