Fighting sore back once again
My back gives me fits almost every day. I can no longer work on my feet for (good day) about 1 1/2--2 hrs, to (bad day) 1/2 hour. When I did the Dodge Ram 4WD conversion, I constantly had to say, "OK, let's go rest" and just go in and flop in the big chair. It is worse this year
This weekend I tore myself up. Got the engine, on the stand, for the Dart out of the shed. There's an 8ft hinged door meeting a "walk in" door, and there's little room to negotiate. The tractor is right up near/ rubbing the big door, coming in from a 45 or more. I managed to catch part of the engine stand on the door, and lifted it right out of the hinge pins. So THEN I got to spend from about 3PM Sat to 8PM on and off, trying to get the door back on it's hinges. I did not want to leave it, because I can not close up the shed. Been "taking it easy" Sun/Mon/Tues and finally today I feel some better.
"No Country for Old Men" I am 76
I will NOT be doin this agin'!!
This was two years ago, last of Aug --end of Nov

The silly pose is because I had 10 seconds to get from the tripod to "there"
