A couple of pictures of Roxi. We walked a couple of miles through a local forest yesterday.

Roxi and her pal, Aurora. Out for a car ride to the beach.

Roxi was out chasing a critter of some sort the other night. She came in later and had of her nail partly separated with a little bit of bleeding. I picked up some MicrocyAH wound care stuff, and have been dressing up the wound. Hope it heals up soon. She limps/favors that paw on occasion, but...

Piling on to my earlier post regarding the heater core replacement on the old Cougar. After completing that job, the water pump decided to leak. It must have been on its way out for some time, because the bearing/shaft is pretty sloppy. I had a new one on the shelf, along with a timing chain...

The Cougar has been without heat for quite a while now. I replaced the heater core about eight years ago, with an aluminum Chinese part from oreillys. I didn't think much about going with aluminum(vs the original brass/copper core). Anyhow, the oreillys part only lasted less than a couple of...

Roxi had a a good Christmas, getting three pigs ears, a new rope toy, and some supplements for her joints. Here she is taking a break during pre holiday hike. Happy New Year!

I modified 3/4" wrench so I could replace the vacuum modulator on a C4 transmission. I have some thin Park Tool bicycle wrenches, but nothing this big.

Spark plugs and a serpentine belt on my wife's VW Atlas. The local dealer was doing some warranty work on it, and recommended these parts to be replaced at 46,000 miles. Their quote was a bit of a shocker, so I ordered the stuff from FCP Euro. Plugs are getting expensive, at $20 each. Anyhow...

First off, apologies if I am in the wrong forum. I am looking for some assistance here in finding the defrost thermostat on my GE bottom freezer refrigerator. I bought it about three years ago, and lately the freezer has not been cooling well. I removed the panel covering the evaporator, and...

A long overdue service on my LA Pavoni cappuccino machine. I bought this about thirty five years ago, shortly after tasting my first mocha. It looked more appealing to me than than modern(for 1990) automated espresso makers. It makes a good shot, but definitely more time consuming than most...
