  Winterized the 3.0 in my boat, oil change and loaded the block/exhaust with antifreeze. 
 

 

 

 

When I had an inboard several years ago, I'd winterize the block with antifreeze from my other vehicles.  I'd drain the antifreeze from the drivers and use it in the boat's block.  That way I rotated the antifreeze from our four vehicles once every four years.

Seen the steam train on the way to putting my truck in winter storage. 
 

I timed it well, only waiting a few minutes for it to arrive at each of the two locations I stopped at.

Spent most of my day cleaning the yard and driveway prepping to have 40 tons of gravel delivered tomorrow.

Back home after spending 4 days in the BILs cabin.

 

Notice the windmills on the far mountain above the roof.

No electric or water in the cabin.

  My other hobby (ok, obsession) is old flashlights. I’m kinda hot and cold with it though. I can easily go a year without buying one or even looking for one. 
  Today the wife and I were in an antigue store and I wasn’t even looking for flashlights, but stumbled across this one so I picked it up to give it a once over and see what the price was. Bulb is missing and it’s not in great shade. Plus I like em older (this one is about a 1948 light). It was heavy, which usually means old dead batteries that have leaked out and corroded the inside. Yes it had old dead D cells inside, but they hadn’t leaked out. 
  Check out the use-by date on them! Which means they were produced before that date. 
  Bought this flashlight just for the batteries…. $7.00
