    Cast Iron Cookware

    I finally got tired of buying the latest and supposedly, the greatest pans. I went and dug out my Grandmas cast iron skillet and started using that. I also cleaned up a decent skillet my hubby picked up. He collects it, I just was never into them, till now. He found a Wagner Ware 8 skillet...

I am working all night shift 11pm-7.30am so I have been trying to adjust. So far I am liking the hours. Just kind of sucks that I...

    I've gone to the dark side!

    Yep, I've sinned, I now drive a Mini Clubman. No, I'm not selling the Jeep, that is for sure. :D I am going to be driving the Mini for the most part, and drive the Jeep this summer from time to time to go to work, and also when I want to go off roading. It's just nice to be able to go almost...

    TJ misfiring

    In the "what did you do to your TJ" thread I mentioned I "fixed" my check engine light problem. The light came on and the code reader said "cylinder 1misfire". At that time, I thought it was a loose connection from the wire to the spark plug. It ran fine after I pushed it back on. Well, today it...

    Bought a New RV!

    Well, actually we didn't buy it, the guy that hubby tows for, gave it to him. Needs a lot of work but we do plan on rebuilding it. We are going to go ahead and sell off some other projects to help fund this one. :D The inside pics are from before we tore out the carpeting through out.

    Which Antirock bar?

    So I am thinking I need to spend some money on my TJ and I think I want to do the Anti Rock Sway bar. I was looking online for a deal and now I am confused on which one I should get? Is one newer then the other and that is the difference in them? They both say for 97-06 TJ...

    Ok guys, lets see how you put your Bartact seat covers to use! I just got mine and so far I only have my hats attached to the passenger seat and then a marker in the lower driver side. Also have the bags that came with them attached to the backs.

    Cyber Monday Speakers

    Hey guys, can anyone have a look at these and tell if they would fit my sound bar or not? It say's they are low profile and also I have heard that I can make a 6.5 speaker fit. Just want to get a second opinion. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_109CL625SQ/JBL-Club-625SQ.html

    Sound Ordinance speaker / amp hook up

    So I broke down and bought the Sound ordinance amp/speaker. Kept seeing a lot of good reviews and decided to go for it. Only thing is, I didn't think it through to well. I forgot my cheapie radio only has one set of RCA jacks in it. Currently they are used by my small amp under my steering...

    Plumas National Forest

    I woke up this morning and decided that I would like to go for a drive. After relaying that to hubby, he decided we would go up toward Marysville and Yuba county area. We ended up in Plumas National Forest. He was trying to find the road he and his Dad went down way back in the day where one...

    Spare tire jerry can holder

    Today my hubby and I took a drive to do a few forest roads. While doing one of the 4x4 trails we stumbled on, my gas tank was showing I only had about a quarter of a tank. I knew this to be wrong as I had just under a half and figured the angle we were going was causing the gauge to be wrong. It...

    Gorman Ranch Road

    Figured I'd do a little Geocaching and go to Grouse Falls and get a geocache there. Didn't quite make it to Grouse falls though. LOL I was at one of the Geocaches and saw Gorman Ranch Road. I have been wanting to go investigate it for a while now, so I decided to go up it. I found this...

    Passenger Compartment Blower Problem

    Ok, it is now officially the end of the world. My blower for my AC/Heater is now turning off and on. It first started doing this yesterday on the way back from the vet. It worked fine on the way there, but when I left the vet, it came on like normal but as I came up to the stop sign it just...

    Scored some half door uppers. Maybe? LOL

    For once, I was at the right place at the right time. I was surfing Facebook and came upon a post from a person in one of the Sacramento Jeep FB groups. He had a set of glass window uppers for 'free'. Yah, free. I was so shocked when I scrolled down and saw that nobody replied to it. So of...

    Clunk / knock noise when turning left

    After my last wheeling trip I have discovered a clunk when I turn left. It doesn't do it turning right, and I think I may have heard it once, going straight from a stop over a couple pot holes. Mainly turning left though. I have been trying to diagnose it and when I first turn it left at a...

    New Jeep Dog, Maybe

    My son rescued a Belgian Malanois, and found out that Mom was right when it came to the size of dog to the size of his studio apt. LOL So long story short, Mom has a new dog. LOL Would it be wrong after only a couple weeks of hubby helping you make a platform to secure the stuff in the back of...

    Wentworth Springs to Rubicon Mile Marker 0.0

    Today I went with a small group down Wentworth Springs up to the mile marker for the Rubicon trail. I didn't go any further but they did. I had a great time and the trail was right up my alley. Not a lot of huge rocks and a mixture of smaller rocks, water, and dirt. Will do this one again. :D...

    Fire bug

    So this happened today. We have a rental house that is right next door to ours. Luckily my hubby was going somewhere and could smell the smoke and then saw it as he was getting ready to leave. The guy in the short video ( I had to cut it way down for posting) is supposed to...
