Just emptied out and steam cleaned my pickup truck interior. :o It's getting nervous!

Can't believe I've owned it for 5 years...

Honda is up next for carpet cleaning...That one has leather seats so easy peasy.

Just got a great deal....10 quarts of full synthetic Pennzoil and 2 Fram oil filters for $40...Enough for both my vehicles. Synthetic baby!! Save myself $100 from shop prices.

... I was watching a lightning storm hit the buildings in Wichita Falls one evening and it decided to hit the oak tree at the end of the street about half a block away. The lightning bolt looked like it was a foot wide with sparks hanging off it. I don't think I touched the ground twice on the way to hide in the bedroom ...
It is amazing stuff ... but it can be frighteningly sudden.

I have seen lightning take a brick chimney off a split-level house about 10 doors down when we lived on Canborough Cr. in Pickering.

And not that long after we moved where we are today, lightning struck and totally demolished a 120' pine tree in the forest behind us. The middle of the tree split into about a dozen 15' shards with sharp points. They all came straight down and impaled themselves into the ground by several feet. It felt like a building exploded.

Thunderstorms are a powerful phenomenon of nature

I spent three years in Wichita Ks., had to drive 60+ miles to my jobsites no matter the weather. It got dicey a few times, ice storms were the worst.
