I went with a group of friends to the Pittsburgh Penguins-Atlanta Thrashers hockey game at Phillips Arena in downtown Atlanta on November 13th. We were waiting in line for about 15 minutes before the doors opened at 6pm. Game was at 7pm.
Head over to my YouTube channel to see some cool videos:
The banner came from Pittsburgh. Dave, Amber and Wayne (red) were at the opening to the new arena.
The Penguins won 4-2. The 4th goal was junk because the goal was empty. I really liked the suite. Easy to move around... the TV set made it easy to keep up with replays and football games...
The coils at the 2 O'clock position and the 10 O'clock position have a little bit of build-up but the Mechanic said the ground was happening on the inside. It charged when he first got it. He rode it a while to warm it up and it would only charge slightly.
This is the bad stator from my VStrom (DL1000K5).
It goes inside the engine case right above it (round part).
The headlights would suddenly dim.. then return.
I had to take it to the shop when the battery died and the new one wouldn't charge. The new battery would even discharge in 3 hours when the ignition OFF-key out.
New Roof installed on May 10th with upgrade architectural shingles. My neighbor's house has missing shingle tabs (original 3-tab). Hopefully her insurance will come through. I like the ridge vents. Sandalwood color was a good choice. Got some extra work on the back to get done.
Fortunately none of my rafters had rot. The soffit is good too - I would have been in real trouble if I waited 6 months...
Ed works on putting the gutter back together. New board is in place. It came pre-painted!
A rare snowfall here in Pelham.
I might be a while before I get to ride the VStrom...
Work should be interesting.
I parked in the lower lot to expedite leaving at 11pm. I changed my mind later and parked at the bottom of Red Mountain during my lunch break.
The drive home was horrible. Ice everywhere, along with a bunch of mangled cars and SUV's. There ended up being a total of 4" at the Birmingham Airport.
