Dan; One thing, in my favor, is my next door neighbor. He has a Ducati, a Kawasaki Ninja and a small 2 stroke kid bike. Plus, he has 2 dogs, that bark all day long. He makes noise, all the time. Fine with me. It makes the neighbor's focus on him, more.

Skip, I laughed out loud when I read that. You got it made buddy...

As I said earlier the blaster wraped my hood so I picked up another, lucky I have a couple buddies with parts cars. Also found some damage on the passenger quarter, I new it was there but was not sure how bad it was. Picked up a replacement panel for that as well. Here are a few pics.

Dan, how does it warp the hood, I mean is it wavy or what?...Another member on this site ,the 60chevy don"t remember his avatar name said they warped his roof!!!I thought the dustless blasting was a no damage procedure , but I guess not .

In both the 59 Chevys case and mine they blasted both sides. In my case they got in a hurry and was hitting the hood straight on instead of at a angle. Remember this aint no little blaster, the nozzle is about 1" or larger.

Most are in Eastern Washington. There is one on the north end of the Olympic Peninsula at Cresent Lake. We are on the south end of the Olympic Peninsula.

Looks like they have the fire north of us out.

We are getting the smoke from fires west of us. We haven't been able to see the mountains for 3 or 4 days.

Guess I was wrong about the fire in Olympic National Park. Says it is 30% contained and figure they will have it under control by the 30th.

We could see the smoke in the mountains on Tuesday but it must be blowing east cause we aren't getting any smoke.
