My lovely Wife and I decided to go ahead and part with our family boat of 10 years.
Since we relocated from Lake Havasu City to Tucson Az,
We are going to travel to different destinations instead of hanging in Havasu.
I want to get a Jeep Rubicon Unlimited and do some exploring.

I took our ‘06 350z in for the 60k service at Thoroughbred Nissan . I requested that in addition to the coolant and brake flush to also change the fluid for the power steering and manual transmission.
Everything goes smooth, takes about 3 hours as promised. I drop almost $800 and go on my merry...

Purchased a new ‘19 for my bride. We got the LE AWD with the factory tow hitch to pull The boat. Don’t need a moonroof or leather seats in Tucson so the LE fits the bill.
Ended up at 32k + fees.

We are under contract on the retirement oasis so I need to find a 30-40’ storage unit for Deja Vu.
Anybody vacating or selling a storage unit in Havasu?
So much for an early launch. Went to open the hatch and nothing. Damn it. Couldn’t pull the hatch ram pin either. Essex misdrilled the access hole so the release T-pin is hitting edge of hole and won’t allow removal. Doh
Plan B
Ran down to Ace to get this 12v cigarette adapter and hooked it...
I was driving to work this morning and passed this Big Rig and no sooner than I get past him I see in my rear view mirror the truck veers across the fast lane and starts down into the center divider, finally the driver makes a correction but too much too late... the driver jackknifes the truck...
Great day on the lake!!! Deja Vu ran great and fired right up after her winter slumber.
It was a little windy at the channel but it’s much quieter down south of 3 dunes
Wife and I flew on a red eye on American out of PHX to Miami then hopped over to Grand Bahama. We rented a car at the airport and ventured off trying to remember to drive on the left side of the road.
First Stop Wyndham Viva Fortuna All inclusive.
The rooms were pretty nice for Bahama standards...
Anyone have any last day at work traditions?
I always wear a tie on my last day and bring in donuts for my co-workers.
I have already cleaned out my desk and restocked my office supplies to the supply cabinet.
Just scrubbing my computer from all the pics and junk I accumulated over the past 6...
Since we decided to accept Raytheon's generous relocation package and list the Retirement Oasis we took a road trip to Sahuarita AZ and met with Pete and Rune at Stone House. We toured the neighborhood and the model and soon decided that this was going to be the place we wanted to call home.
We...
