Spring Time Sunday Stroll

 Stretching Our Legs in the Nevada Desert

Desert landscape has some of the most unappreciated beauty in the world. There's nothing quite like it and while it may seem desolate, it is vibrant, diverse, and alive. My daughter and I had a change to take Yagi out to appreciate some of that beauty on this beautiful Sunday in March.

 Stereo Redux 2.0... (There will be a 3.0) & Replacing Bulbs The PO (I think two POs ago) did a number on the stereo he installed.

He left a rat's nest of wires behind the dash as well as cutting out all the supports and just setting an aftermarket stereo in the hole.
