Hot here too. Humidity is kicking into high gear this evening. Hopefully it brings some rain too. Coffee is real good also.  I have to really start organizing the fishroom/basement. Things are getting a little messy down there. Not with the tanks; just general all around stuff.

Yes shelving helps. I have some but need more. I have 3 six foot folding tables down there too but they fill up quickly. My girlfriend's daughter is storing some stuff down there while she is on summer break from school so I will be able to move that stuff into her new apartment next week when school starts again. I can use that area badly.

Today is the day of The Beast.  He's getting a through cleaning inside and out.  Outside is done except tor the buffing.  Passenger section won't be too difficult.  The cargo section will be a job.  There is all this old hay I have stored there.  I forgot until I opened his back door that there was a 20 long a customer gave me last month in him, too   It will be hard getting the little bitty pieces of hay out out.  I'll sweep first, then vacuum then the entire cargo section needs to be scrubbed and rinsed out with a hose. I'll Armorall the Rhino Liner, too.  When I'm done, he'll be the first to go under my carport   It isn't finished yet but the roof is on.

Beasty will be going to Mr. Berkin, my diesel man, tomorrow.  I will tell him that I want to sell him or trade him for something of equal value.  He likes The Beast.  He told me when he did my last repair that he has the best engine...that the next year they started using one of lesser quality.  I'm hoping he might know someone who needs a beast.  He has done all the repairs on him since I've been here so he knows that the Beast will be healthy.  My job is to make him handsome.

Just got home. We went to check out the Lansing River Trail with our bikes. What a cool trail system they created in our state's capital!  We rode long winding wooden bridges, through a very nice little swimming, picnic and water park and even through the city's zoo. Most of the section of the trail we traveled was through woods with plenty of shade. We rode 10 miles today...it was hot...86 and muggy.

There's plenty more trail system to ride. We'll definitely be going back for more. Oh...and we finished up the ride with hand dipped ice cream cones.  Good for cooling off.

Same here with my '91 Isuzu Rodeo....  We had been over every nasty hazardous waste site in the tri-state area and she never let me down.  That old girl would go through snow so deep that you couldn't open the doors to get out.  LOL

Please don't make me feel worse about this than I already feel.  I've kept him all this time even although I haven't needed The Beast for years.  The facts are, he is expensive to run $80. in fuel every two weeks compared to Charlotte's $20. every two weeks.  His repairs are more costly as well.  And really, what do I need with a great huge cargo van? 

I was 'bout finished with his clean up when poof  out of nowhere it started to rain!  I pulled him into the carport but decided it would just be a sprinkle and left the laundry on the line.  It got harder and the laundry is soaked.  Don't know if I'll have sheets on the bed tonight or not    It has cleared up now but I am 'bout whupped, and filthy dirty,  and would love a good soak in a nice tub and a nap.  Trying to talk myself into backing The Beast out of the carport  going over him with a microfiber cloth and giving him the buffing that I promised him.

The answer to that is NO! At least not on my end. I fell down on the job. I took a nap instead.
