Darn china syndrome.....I wanted 2lz's csc tt250 WITH ALL THE MODS and I couldn't get there fast enough, 2lz was kind to me, but we couldn't keep him waiting, he sold it and it went to a china rider.…..but we were handed a need from a family member that we helped with….I didn't want to step into my gun and bike slush fund....BUT that has been resolved now. Darn china syndrome!!!!!….the mrs wanted a smaller, lighter, dirt bike...SO I bought her a Taotao DBX1. She doesn't know...will be another surprise for her.

Got these in today. Going to replace the fork seals on my next total bike maintenance. Have one that leaks now and then.

3/8” impact wrench. For when you are too lazy to use a ratchet but a 1/2” is overkill.

Bought a used 2018 Toyota 4runner 4x4. I bought it from Avis on their rent to buy program where you rent it for 3 days at a reduced rate and if you decide to buy it the fee is waived. I was a little reluctant to buy a used rental, but I had three days to test it out and it runs and drives like new. I was a little worried that someone might have rented it and beat it up off road, but I checked the under body and there are no signs that it has ever been bottomed out, not even a scratch on the skid plate. It's just the basic SR5, no TRD package, but I don't plan on doing any hard core 4 wheeling, but I do like to travel off the beaten path sometimes. It has 30k miles, and since it was still a current rental vehicle it has not been reconditioned, so there is a few minor scratches and paint chips but no body damage, the interior is perfect, and I got a good deal. I always wanted a 4runner!

the whiskey will be picked up at a later date... it has been requested to get West Cork single malt Bog oak cask Irish whiskey... about $34 locally... https://www.marketviewliquor.com/pro...key-750ml.html

so the trailer will cost about $285...LOL it is in pretty good shape, and has multible tie town points installed, as well as T-slot mounts for motorcycle wheel chocks...

My mrs and I have talked about securing a flag and planting a pole for sometime. She found a veteran owned company, and the flag and pole kit arrived, along with a nice yellow don't tread on me flag. The mrs, likes to fabricate, we had an old propane tank that we cut the ends out of for home bbq or fire pits, so she cut a ring out of it. We poured concrete in a foundation, set the ring on top, filled with aggregate, and the mrs painted some white stones, red, white and blue to fill, Looks nice! I get some pix of it planted....
