Yes.
Yes I do want to know which restaurant this is, please.
Chris it's Manuels and they have locations throughout the valley. We've only been to the one in Goodyear so I'm not sure how the others are. Prices are reasonable and the service and food is great.

We like Manuel's.
I go to church with one of the restaurants owners. Each restaurant is owned by a family member...
Good people. Good food. I recommend them! :)

I was working on paying bills this evening, including the payment for the Ranger and I thought to myself "It hasn't been driven in a month."

So I drove it a few miles and got on it a little. :)

I know some people get the tuning, but I couldn't be happier with how much power it already has. It goes over bumps so darn well and I still love the Borla/Ford Performance exhaust.

I stopped and made a picture in the covered bridge nearby. It has around 815 miles on it and I haven't had to wash it yet.

Rented a 5x8 trailer in Fort Worth, towed to Tyler empty-20.3mpg. Loaded the trailer with big stuff (not very heavy), along with a couple items in the bed, and returned=18.5mpg. 65mph both ways on cruise control. Could hardly tell I was towing anything. Very impressed!

Hi Phil,

I'll have to check it out next time we''re down that way. We've only been down to Tombstone and Bisbee once a few years ago then stopped at the Titan Missile Museum. That was a great museum!

The Ranger took us to dinner to one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. You'd think I'd learn by now not to stuff my face with the free chips and salsa before the meal. ?

We’re much alike then. I’m the same way. Can eat like crazy and amaze people with what I can put away. The ol hollow leg excuse get used often. Still slim and it’s not stopping ether. Been that way my whole life and in my mid 60’s now can still do it but not like I use to. One thing about being this way though, putting on weight is near impossible. My wife tried more than once and gave up totally pissed off that it wasn’t fair!!! ? One of my daughters got it from me and doncha know she’s a professional model now. She thanks me all the time!!!! Hahaha wife is still pissed though! ?

I can dig that.
Got gas at Costco this morning and it had gone up to $2.77 for 91 octane
Pretty sure it was just $2.55 a little over a week ago at last fill up.
I just paid 3.69 for 91 octane at Costco in Kalifornia. Over $4.00 per gallon at the corner Chevron.

That looks like a great tour. I love those old control rooms. These are from Kennedy space center. This is the bunker where the controls were that launched Mercury astronaut, Alan Shepard . It had to be built like a bunker because it was only 300 feet from the rocket. They used Direct Current controls and voltage drop prevented them from being any further away.
