Subject: [elky] Visit from Iowans - Monte Head replacement


Friday night Brother Jim, his 2 sons, and my Mom drove in for the weekend. The 
excuse was that I had 2 days off in a row, and some new heads in the garage for 
the Monte Carlo. It was great to see everyone. we had a real nice visit. Jim 
and I spend from early Monday till mid afternoon working on the head swap. Zach 
helped with some all important young back muscles for torquing. Nate was in the 
drive swapping his winter wheels to the summer versions. Mom watched it all 
from the drive, and Cindy was taking advantage of the beautiful day cleaning up 
in the garden. It was a beautiful day at nearly 70 and sunny for the most part. 

The swap was a success. No more smoking on the start up, and it runs real 
smooth. 

Big thanks to Jim for all the help and making the trip of 7-8 hours each way to 
help out.... and saving my back. Thanks to Mom for the dinner last night. It 
was just great to see everyone too.
