Let's see, what did I do today..

Fixed the Homelink since it wasn't working, finally tracked down the cause.

Hooked up my Duralink for the first time and scanned and cleared residual codes.

Drove her.

I'd fly...or take the long way...but we're gonna be getting a few storms this weekend in norcal so take care whatever you do.

My daughter is also a student at ucd (jr, intl ag development) and I'm heading out there later today to shuttle her to sfo for a long weekend at an ag seminar in Portland.

Let me know the next time you are up here...

Guys.... thank you for the advice. Looking at the weather forecast, it would be insane to drive. Even at the best of times, I wonder if it's worth tackling the I-5. Definitely will try Sudwerk, and Fatush..... I will let you know the next time I'm up in Davis. It's such a great location and campus.

Had my local Indy replace my failed instrument cluster and leaking steering rack. Not fun repairs but my P car is happy and healthy.

Parked her next to an M4 and C7 Corvette at Panera this morning, after clawing my way through Boston traffic to get to the South Shore. I haven't washed her since before the rainstorms last week, so today I'll wash her and park her in the garage while I take the train into the city to see a play. It'll be nice to have a clean car for one whole day before it rains on Saturday :-/

replaced burned out bulbs in the interior, cleaned out the radiators. I couldn't believed how much crap got stuck in there. The Carrera badge went back on, waiting for the "S" to arrive.
