The end of October provided some nice days, so wife Rhoda, dog "Happy", and I took a 75 mile round trip to Grand Rapids, Ohio, to see some of the old Erie Canal locks and to take in the fall colors.
Rhoda drove Tillie for the first time during this fall ride and did a great job!
When we got back home from our ride, I drained all of the oil fluids since everything was hot.
This is a windshield reminder to put new engine, gearbox, and differential oils back in !
Another sure sign that the driving season is over....the missing battery is down in the basement for monthly trickle charges.
Taping up the exhaust pipes should keep moisture and small critters out of the mufflers!
I keep Sta-Bil in my gas all the time, so bad gas won't be a problem come spring.
The end of the driving season is a good time to clean things up. I removed the wire wheels one at a time and used some magic spray cleaner designed for the job...the result was great. This also provided me the opportunity to check and clean the wheel wells and various components normally
hidden from view.

That's all for now, hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!
