Fridgid Tubing = Awesome Sauce!

Well this last weekend I went camping with my cousin and her boyfriend at apple river in wisconsin.

It was a stressful drive there since my van hates hills and is running on limited brake pads, but we got there in one piece and found that in order to put the camper on our site I would have to back it up through a tight squeeze of a tree cluster.

Which was fine by me since I pride myself in backing-up skills. To add to the demand to get it right the first time, the campers next to us (who left before i took this pic) were all watching me to see if I would make it.
I threaded that needle in one shot and as a bonus I had my cousin record it on my flip cam so I have recorded proof that I did it.

It was not the warmest of weekends, Saturday was alright and we went tubing down the river since it was supposed to be colder and windier sunday.

So we got the tubes and went in, it was quite chilly, but a few beers and some laughing made it not so horrible. it was actually quite fun, and I dont think that I stopped laughing the whole time it was a blast.

Then sat night got down to 40F and since we were at a non-electric site and my campers battery is toast we had no heat and almost froze my balls off but we survived.

Sunday was the definition of miserable, cold and windy, so we decided not to extend out trip one more day and go home.

But all in all it was an awesome and very fun trip.

Pontiac Problems, But I Still Love Them

Well I finally fixed one of the latest issues with the Bonneville, I replaced the fuel pressure regulator. It was a heck of a lot simpler than I thought it would be. It would have been even simpler if I hadn't broken the rubber hose that connects the vacuum line to the FPR. So I went back to Autozone and the dude gave me what I needed for free, since it was a 1" lil bit of hose. Now it starts without having to give it gas and it does not die when you take you foot off the gas.

Now I need to replace the oil pump, preferable before winter, and the shocks and struts. The big thing that needs to be taken care of eventually is the transmission, it is slowly going out.

Now on to my car's woes, The engine is pretty much done for :( The head gasket went out and it sat for a lil bit and the engine seized up. I took out the plugs and tried cranking it over to see if it wasnt vapor locked but nothing budged. That means I need to get a new engine in it. This engine only has 107,000 some miles on it. Its just a pup, its sad.

Oh well Ive atleast almost got the bonne done thats good

Well now I am off to be yall. Good Night
