Glad for good news, Delmonico, and that you're feeling better, Slim.
Johnny, bummer about the car. We dropped my wife's trailblazer off for a much-needed alignment yesterday, and were told that the front upper control arms and ball bearings need replacing. The way the car handles, it's probably true. They quoted $700 or more to replace them. Looked it up and I can get quality parts for a little north of $100 total, and lots of videos on 1A Auto and elsewhere of how to do it myself.
Still might try taking the car to a different shop to confirm they think the parts need replacing, and to see if they give me the same line about needing to replace the tires to get a good alignment (lots of tread left, but they say it's because the wear is uneven; I don't think we're replacing those tires again anytime soon though).
Nebraska has cooled off a bit. Got some rain again last night and now getting a bit more. High temps mostly in the 80s this week here. Currently about 61 and forecast to hit 78.
