Well GJ friends, not sure what to say. My dad passed away in his home on Wednesday at 4:00 PM CST. I was with him, and am glad he was not alone. I’m just now getting sat down to let you know. Not sure what is going to happen with the shop now. Mom needs to go to assisted living and everything is...

Well the shop is full again! And we like big projects apparently! Time to polish and wax the 40’ RV. Remember tailswing when you try to make a slight turn inside a bay door LOL. As you can see we need more light on the north end of the building. Bite off more than you can chew - and chew it.

Another detail job in the shop! This one won’t take 3 step ladders and a scissor lift! (Or at least I don’t think so LOL)

Yep! He also has a little smart car that he puts up there depending on where they’re going…

That’s a flatbed with a small fifth wheel integrated into it for pulling a fifth-wheel camper trailer. They removed the big fifth wheel and bolted this new bed onto the frame. He puts either his golf cart up there or a smart car. It’s quite a setup. He had his golf cart up there when we did the...

Done! Phew! Now on to the next project! The family that runs this Volvo uses it to pull a fifth-wheel camper. I’d say this truck doesn’t even know that camper is back there!

Did this one today, too. 2013 Duramax automatic GMC 3/4. We found the original window sticker in the glovebox and it said $58,000. LOL. That’s the cost of a base-model gas burner now!

Done. 1:00 AM my time. Will do the glass and final touches in the AM. But she’s completely detailed. Will share more photos tomorrow!

Brought a new detail job into the shop. We’re going to do a full detail too to bottom. This rig pulls a 5th wheel camper. Will share photos as we make progress!

Yep! They absolutely terminated my shins a couple of times! Glad I have plenty of gauze in the ol’ shop!

Done! Now to line up a couple more for next week. Funny thing, we had pop-up showers happen right after I took this photo. It has not rained here in quite a long time. Had to rush the truck back into the shop!

Well I’m officially whooped. Been doing just a little detail work again this weekend. Here’s a couple of quick photos of the rigs we’ve been working on. Will finish the rollback tomorrow and post a couple of photos. Now for sleep!

Holy smokes what a sweet dually. Complete detail today of the truck and horse trailer. Nice setup! But it’s time to go home. I’m whooped!

I didn’t do anything today inside our garage. Took out the trash, straightened up supplies, but that’s about it. Didn’t do anything and am perfectly fine with it. We had a big weekend there and needed at least one evening of rest!

Phew! Done for the weekend! Holy smokes I need to go back to work to get some rest! Got the W-9 done!
