Yep, that must be where I saw the Archimedes screw. We must have climbed into the same train.

We have this awesome beast at our Museum of Science and Industry here in Chicago:

Early diesel locomotive from the 1930's that is absolute beautiful.

My 'rents are in Ormond Beach area (slightly North of Daytona), they got some flooding around them but not on their street, they are at the center of the peninsula which has saved the property may times before. They stayed at the house during the worst of it, didn't get much sleep and it was windy AF but not much damage afterwards. The neighbor had some soffit separate, and a section of fence that's fallen before go down again. My parents have one large palm tree that they are hoping to save, but that's about it. The storm did most of the damage on the west coast, and very little where they live.

Good luck with it, hopefully you're safe and the city/street doesn't incur much damage.

Seems all good here, we got a shit ton of rain, wind, downed branches and leaves, but no significant damage.

Knocked over parts of both fences and our big mango tree leaned over, took a small chunk out of the rain gutter and soffit. We were worried it was gonna fall on mom’s MDX.

Both roadsters are fine, we boxed them in with the van and MDX so it was less likely something came flying and hit them. Just a lot of plant debris stuck to all the cars. They all needed a good wash anyways.

Potato roll buns toasted on the griddle after the burgers came off. Tillamook cheddar on all four. Pickles on all four. Two with Dijon, two with normal mustard. One of each mustards got some fresh red onions. Got to play burger roulette when I put the top gun on all of them and couldn’t tell which was which until I bit in.

Gotta say, while it was waaay too big for me, it was pretty overall. Attractive interior, very quiet and solid feeling. Had a lot of nice little touches like some color accents on the steering wheel and matching contrast stitching that matched the copper accents on the exterior. He put it in "sport mode" which was but whatever. Tried taking a turn like I would in my GTI and I thought we'd tip over, lol. But he had been driving a Dodge Caravan for the last 11 years and a Ferd Taurus for several years before that so the thing feels like a Lambo to him. Dunno if it had a CVT but it did have flappy paddles which worked . LEDs were legit decent, switchgear felt solid, seats were comfy, with lots of adjustment options. Overall it was a pretty nice car for a non-car guy.

Do you know how much homie paid for the privilege of owning the peak Lesbian chariot with every option ticked?

Had our drinking friends over and we went to a local microbrewery for beers and bar food, then we came back, opened up some wine and lit a fire. It was a perfect evening, low 50's, clear skies, slight breeze. Totally and just what I wanted the pit and patio for. Then, to improve things more, had the bright idea to cut up some Polish sausage we had in the fridge and brought out some extendable bbq forks and we roasted the sausages over the fire. T'was a great evening.
