Family room pic of the rehab I bought. What a mess. Doors to the garage and basement.

Brother is replacing the trim in the entire house. Installing LVP in the entire house.
Spraying the doors a darker color and replacing the door knobs, hinges.. with nickel or maybe something dark, haven't decided yet.

OLD Uniroyal tire found in the shed of the rehab I just bought. Dates back to 1997. Had a flat garden hose in it. Looks like a good tire that is too old to safely use now. 205/75/15

We had growing up a 58-65-and a 73 Impala
We had a 63! Ugliest brown ever. With a yellow streak where a school bus hit it making a turn.

My dad said he never liked that car he just bought it because he needed a car and got a good deal on it. Eventually replaced with a blue Galaxy 500, a 65 I think. I remember that one a lot better I was a bit older and we had it quite a while.
 
I was surfing at Linda Mar Beach in the afternoon yesterday. Afterward, I dropped off my board at a friend's house in Pacifica. On my way out of town, I noticed there was a commotion at the pier so I stopped. A guy in board shorts had jumped off the end of the pier almost 1/4 mile from the shore because he wanted to "go for a swim." Mind you, the water is in the mid-'50s and I'm used to it and I wear a wetsuit and it's still cold. Most people will last no longer than half an hour before they get hypothermia and then they drown. Within ten minutes of him jumping the police showed up and an officer threw the guy who was intermittently clinging to a barnacle-covered piling a life ring. Barnacles are razor-sharp so he got cut up pretty badly for sure. Had the tide been going out at the time, they probably would have not even been able to find him. The water was also very calm. About 40 minutes after the guy had jumped the Coast Guard showed up and dropped a life vest and a rescue diver. After 10 minutes of wrangling in the water, they finally pulled the diver and the guy up and set the guy on the pier. A rescue boat did arrive after that. The guy was carted off on a stretcher shivering and yammering about how cold it was. He was lucky to be alive. You can't fix stupid. The other thing is, there's no money in the budget for lifeguards and rescue craft on or near many popular beaches. With us surfers, most rescues are done by surfers before emergency personnel ever shows up. If they need rescue watercraft in Linda Mar or in Pacifica they have to call for one from 15 miles away in Half Moon Bay. Several people drown here every year. The life rings that were installed near the pier are there only because a 12-year-old boy drowned there two years ago. A few people drown there accidentally every year and Rockaway right by Nick's restaurant is a popular spot for a final midnight swim.

I don't like taking pictures of people in distress so I'll only show you a picture of the Coast Guard arriving. The pier is L-shaped. He jumped ner the last piling to the right. He has fished out about 120 feet away to the left from under the main section of the pier.

Learning about shrinkage.

Puckered butthole, too.

People underestimate the ocean all the time. I do open water swimming but I'm aware of the risks and I know where not to do it. This is not the place to do it.

A bystander told me the guy said he couldn't swim. So he jumped, realized he couldn't swim in midair, then fell into the drink. The cops said the guy was known for doing stupid things. If the first cop at the scene hadn't thrown the miscreant the life ring, the guy would not have made it. There are no life rings on the pier! There are a few along Beach Blvd and the officer grabbed one of those and ran out on the pier.

A trip to the ER costs about $5k. A helicopter rescue costs over $10k. And then there were several other emergency departments involved.
