Gremlin Garage gets some heat relief...Toy hunt yields great finds!

[Gremlingts@xxxx]

 Well, I went out this morning to work on installing an attic vent in the 
garage, to try to siphon off some of the heat build-up. Had to Circ-saw thru 
plywood and Abestos siding to cut the hole, darn near fainted when I came 
down, and I was only up there for 15 minutes...it was HOT! I hosed off in the 
yard for awhile, to cool down and get the abestos dust off of me, then went 
back up on the outside to fit in the louvered panel, and seal it. Got that 
done, put the tools away, then got a shower and headed out on an AMC toy 
hunt....hit most of my favorite stores in a 40-mile circle, found 2 of the 
'70 R/W/B Machine 30th Anniversary cars at $8 each, a couple more of the 
Hurst Ramblers, another orange Hotwheels AMX with missing turnsignal paint, 
plus some new Matchbox cars (planes, actually) in different paint schemes, 
and some Johnny Lightning '57 Chevies of various sorts and colors. I spent 
WAY too much money on toys today, :) . Oh well, it's my hobby. Guess I'll 
work on organizing the garage some more on Sunday. Either that, or hit the DC 
Flea market going on nearby, LOL. At least I didn't have to paint any on the 
house! Yah! Still sore from last week's long weekend " honey-do".... :( . 
Anyway, hope ya'll are having a good time this weekend. I haven't been online 
much, too many house projects the girlfriend wants me to fix. But at least 
I"m getting a break this weekend. :) C ya!
