On the way to get the COVID shot this morning the odometer turned 100,000... It's not a "new car" anymore... It's now an "old car". "Suddenly... Just like that...

Guess I'm supposed to join a club or somethin'

Wholly cow, I though for a second that I was looking at someone’s K&N filter, lol.

I have duelling filter, change it and then just vac the one I took out and put it on the shelf. Washing seem like a good idea if you’re confident you won’t clog the pores.

I also have a HEPA filter and a wet vac filter.

I’ll use that old one for vacuuming up nasty stuff like drywall debris.

Took a ride out to a friends farm, I had to repair her 100 years old weather vane, I got it unstuck with a squirt of PB Blaster, it’s working fine now!

That is the ticket. My Shop-vac is wet or dry, so not an issue here. Plus I clean the filters regularly after big jobs.

I put the shop vac back together after a day to dry the filter, it’s back to it’s normal self full vacuum power , nothing left on the floor.

Sweetie is gone off to a physiotherapist appointment in the BlackSwan.

I did a couple of small chores getting the rec room ready for drywall next month, we’ll see how the prices are then.

a strange occurrence last night, after about a mile drive from Sweetie’s Mom’s house the DIC dinged and instructed me to “device tire pressure sensor “ I clicked thru the information list to confirm which one is not working and both the fronts and rears are reading pressure?
When I got home , after another 3 or 4 miles, I checked again and the RF was showing _ _ _ _. I turned off the ignition and went in the house, came back out, started the BlackSwan and the sensor had made nice with the car. Go figure! Anyways a replacement is on it’s way the company I bought the sensors from responded to my eBay enquiry and agreed to send one.
