Scooots, I'm impressed with all your plastic pry tools. I have one metal one! Since you went that far, change them all; less than $200.

I'm certainly getting lazy. We have a local car show. We have a local hot air balloon event. We have a huge Ann Arbor art fair just down road with 30 blocks of artist from all over the world. And, so far, I've not made any effort to go to anything. The art fair was something we used to go to every year, often for two days. Now I look at the pictures on the internet. I did think about taking a drive tonight for pizza but it's down another of those dense deer roads and said, nah, not tonight.

They'll look at us like we have three heads.
I considered it but all of the LEDs I have found say that they are not "Canbus" error free. I'm not sure if that would cause a problem or not. I'm not sure of the extent that our cars use Canbus. Plus my head is about to explode trying to figure the cross reference.

I'm still considering replacing them all.

Those plastic tools are only a few out of my set. One of the better set of tools that I bought.

I bought a much smaller set from Modifry (7 pieces) and they have solved every need I had. They are indeed invaluable.

I was feeling better so I joined my sister, brother in law and a friend at a favorite local restaurant. Very good food, reasonably priced, nice atmosphere and view. Rick needs a couple more days in the recliner.

Dave, I'd love to see a hot air balloon event. We have lots of fairs, crafts, art, food in our area this time of year. We aren't attendees. People, too many people.

The Celtic fans have taken over our hotel. They were partying hearty before the game at the rooftop bar. Since Celtic shut out DC United 4-0 I’m sure they will be continuing the festivities until the early hours.

Got off my lazy butt, fired up the MG, and took some photos. The video I took really shows what was going on.
