Even though that question never made it into one of your videos (and I didn't think it would), I just wanted to thank you for answering. That has been bugging me for 30 years. Have a safe trip!

They don't know the old days when you took apart a carburetor or distributor fixed it and put it back and was very happy when the car ran fantastic. I would love to work with Scotty on a car and learn so much from him. 🐻🇺🇸

      Wow, your mother must be very durable to have survived being born and raised in the falls. How she was raised in the falls seems outlandish though, because the water is flowing downward at an incredible rate.
      I'm just teasing. It's cabin fever, and my dyslexia causes me to read things as literally as they appear even though you meant she was raised in the general area on land beside the falls. I'm sorry, it wont happen again, probably not, though maybe.

Just crazy stories but he never shared those stories with any of his sons. I miss him. He told me birds of the same feathers flock together. Took me a minute to understand what he meant by that and I stayed away from bad people because of it. Sorry to hear about your grandmother and I wish your grandfather would share those stories.

    You gave the impression that you were back in New York to stay. I was going to tell you that you are out of your mind considering I moved from metropolitan South Florida 3 1/2 yes ago to Tennessee.
    Tennessee has been great imo. No toll roads, no income tax, most of the drivers are civil, the country roads are fun (tail of the dragon honorable mention), cost of living is cheap, gas is really cheap (presently $2.50 a gallon vs the $2.99 my sister is crying about in Pennsylvania), rarely any traffic etc. Good stuff all around 👍

I'm getting old as well, but like you my mind is still shrape as a tack. Keep up the great video's, I've learned lots from them. You have a huge following in Canada. My nephew and great niece just purchased a 2015 Rav 4 for her first vehicle. I just purchased a 2008 Ranger, my first Ford and I'm going to be 60 in November. Absolutely love it.
