1 I clear a path/space in my garage. You don’t want to be run’n over no power tools and you can bet that tools your look’s for over the winter might well be far enough under the car or under a tire where there a pain to get at. So best re-move stuff.
2 Make sure that there is just enough fuel in the tank so that next spring you can get to the gas place to fuel up. Gas cans are a pain. Don’t worry about condensation as today’s gas already has enough
3 Ok… so now I drive’er in to the ge-rage, alwaz try and get-er right dead center so if youz has a small space you can “make the loop” as a friend of mine one said. “Make the loop” ie (always wondered what ie stands for), anyway make the loop means walk around the car…..
Once all centered up etc… shut her off , kill main power safety switch. ( you DO have one ?) . At that point I poke around and gather up all the old event flyers, defect cards from the police, old food etc. I do leave a few old fries, what the hell the nice have to eat too !
4 Now in years past I use to make a list, sort of a “to so” list for over the winter things to fix, upgrade, replace etc.. I tape this to the windshield so I can see it and a reminder….Course I never did/do anything on the list so now instead of scrap’n the list in the spring I just reuse it and restick it up the next year.… Hey, works for me !
5 I alwaz wait a few days and cast an eyeball under the car and check out the leaks…I do this again in the spring and try and compare size etc… If a big leak I figure out where and refill whatever iz leak’n…..works 4 me…
6 The very last thing I do is just get in the car, sit there for a few min. and reflex back on the past season..
and thats all there iz too it
Received my monthly call from my uncle Lew-wee. Only seems too call me when hez pissed at something or other. Now that his Maple Leafs are not do’n so hot (glad I never mentioned I’m a Bruins fan) he seems too be on a tear. The conversation then drifted over too the economy. He saz that things are so bad where he is that he waz at McDonalds the other day and he kid behind the counter asked “ think you can afford fries with your burger?” He then looked at the menu and they now have a ¼ ouncer!
He did say he was real upset the other day when the bank returned one of his checks marked insufficient funds. He calls the bank and the said it ment them not him…. Hmm…
Well folks I leave’n ya for now…Oh ya I want to say a special hello & welcome to Sydney Louise Angle St Cyr…..
