In Sacramento, CA and Lodi (close to Stockton) it was 106 in the shade the last two weekends!! I was glad to get back to the Bay Area (San Francisco, San Jose) where it was a cool 95 degrees!!

Speaking of, let me know if you still need a hand. I'm pretty good with swinging a hammer and my fees are relatively inexpensive. For helping with a deck, I charge cold cold beer while building said deck, invite to bbq on deck when complete, and assistance when it comes time to clay/polish/wax with Zaino :D

When I first got my car the A/C blew loudly and would wind up to full speed on the climate control computer, but very little air came out. I yanked my microfilter and it was covered with black muck, mold, mildew, leaves, etc. If you've had your car more than a couple years and haven't touched it.. now's the time! You won't regret it.

Perhaps I'll be there tonight. Depends on how I feel... drove over from AR this morning and am a little tired. How much more of the deck needs to be done and when do you usually work on it? Get a 12pack or case of Bavaria on ice and I'm there :D

tired?? too tired for beer!? - - - :ban:
you better be there! punk :stickoutt

We work on the deck after work/dinner during the week. I think they were planning on doin more tonight after McNel - we have all the top boards layed out across the frame - I think they need to get some more 12' and/or 10' boards and one more dek block to build the last row of support closest to the house with the face board and to build out the bay window shape at one corner. - getting really close!!!

As you saw SWISS doesn't get there till like 6:15 and it shouldn't take that long to get your hair cut! :stickoutt

- Matt has had some personal things come up and will not be there. :( So be sure to call me about it at either work or my cell.

my OBC actually said 120F after work on Monday. I don't know where the sensor is on an E24, but i dont see how it could have been engine heat because the car hadn't run in 4 hours.
