Hey Edward,

It's Friday so you are allowed to ramble. Sounds like you're filling the void left by your job. Many retirees return to work because they cannot find anything to fill that void. They are the hard workers that actually work at their jobs. Whether they like it or not they are addicted to their craft and whether or not that's a good thing is on a case by case basis.

Really good that you are persistently getting your 87 in good shape for safe reliable/comfortable travel. From what you've posted, I hope you can get it to a more secure location as it sounds like it may be a target for more vandalism or worse.....

Rambling on myself...
