Made the saddest road trip of the season this afternoon…
Winterized and locked up the cottage on Lake Huron, backed down the driveway, and headed back to Toronto. Already can’t wait for Spring!

Thanks Tracy - Mrs. DukeCanBuildit was taking the video while I tried to keep it between the lines. Otherwise, I would have ended up in the trees! ?

today and all night last night lol Abbs and I put on a winch mount and winch. we lost tools, made a mess, busted up some knuckles, scraped up hands and arms. we also discovered the mount manufacture directions were wrong or who ever was reading them should have printed the correct instruction set... guess who was reading them ???. after taking apart way too much and mounting things up and trying to put the bumper etc back on - no go. we had to take it all apart and start over. . . picture was around 3 am after starting over.
apparently, due to covid 19 - m 18 wrenches and sockets have vanished from my boxes. had to dig in garage and in the trucks for 18s. found one 18 socket from 4 tool sets?... and one 18 wrench. back in business. cheap hong kong 18 socket fails. ruined the bolt, bolt stuck in socket- in the frame ?. took a moment to reflect on life.?‍
then got my ? and pry bar ?‍ showed that bolt and socket who boss. removed ruined bolt from frame. back to parts bins to scrounge up substitute bolt. found bolt and the sockets i was missing from the begging ?
. finally got it done. winch works. mount works and is solid.

After 15,500 miles my factory Bridgestone tires were refusing to stick to the road. Just crappy rubber. Still had tread, but got rid of them for Falken Wildpeak. They are softer rubber and stick line glue, loving them so far

You ain't lying when you say "on the lake."
Is that your dock to the right of the cottage?

Yep, right on the lake - record high levels two years ago almost had it “in the lake”.
There’s a boat storage shed for our kayaks and SUPs to the right of the cottage and a deck railing that looks like a dock in the video. No docks here. Here’s a shot looking back from the beach…
Off the boat shed deck to the beach…

Used it to help with citrus stuff. Now to plant them all. Could use a cold front to drop the temps to 80 degrees.

Changed my Air, Fuel and Cabin filters. Oil and oil filter this weekend. Diesel filter is cartridge type, very messy to change. Also had no idea cabin filters trap so much crap. Only been in for 40,000 K.
