    Well worth it! I find the people that "personalize" their garages do it over years. There are the "surgery room" clean garages that look amazing, then their are the ones with years of memorabilia and auto relates signs, etc that look like museum/man cave garages that look crazy comforable and places to spend hours away in. I enjoy seeing examples of both and everything inbetween.

    I used my Ridgid to vacuum underneath & behind the fridge for the 1st time and it was in dire need. Unbelievable amount of dust. Years worth.What did you do today non-detailing related?




    I used the crevice tool, the 3’ crevice tool, and the secret weapon that allowed me to get into every last corner was the long thin plastic tube that came with the micro vacuum attachment kit.
    Finished it off by blowing any remaining dust out with the Metro Sidekick.

    I forgot to take after shots but it looks like brand new. Very satisfying vacuuming.What did you do today non-detailing related?

    Yesterday I CC'd the heads (all chambers are equal) and gapped the rings for my 5.0 rebuild.
    I think those are the final steps before I can clean everything and start assembling (but I'm sure I'm missing something).
    Hopefully we get some warmer weather in the next couple weeks so I can wash everything.

    Re: What did you do today non-detailing related?

    This past weekend we brought home the newest member to our family. Our black and white Pit Mix that was among the most loyal dogs we've ever had was bonded to my wife like no-other and we he passed last year, she had a broken heart that took time to heal. Well, with spring coming and it being just over 11 months she was ready and one day started looking.

    She wanted a smaller pup, something soft and cuddly and this mix fit the bill. Now, that said, our neighbor has the same mix but of course not identical as they always vary, and their male is 32lbs. We're hoping this boy stays under 20 but my guess is he will be 25 or so.

    Meet "Zuko", pronounced Zoo-Co as in a character from one of my kids favorite cartoon series growing up, The Last Airbender. In the show the character is a "fire bender" and that's appropriate on many levels as my wife is a fiery spirit and we need someone that can handle manipulate it. After 24+ years, I'm still not perfect, but I think Zuko will be. The reddish hair also contributes to the name and thus far he is fitting right in.

    Zuko is a 15 week old, 12lb Cavapoo, which is a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle. His color and the fact that he looks more like a spaniel is what attracted us to him. Our neighbor looks more like a poodle.
