30 mile bike ride with my wife on the Towpath on Saturday, then my youngest son and I are going to see the Moody Blues at Nautica Saturday night. No real plans for Sunday and Monday except for getting a long run in and some yard work done.

No Plans. I'm on call Sunday if the Company is open. (I heard they are going to be closed nation wide) Then I'll probably be on on Monday. Go Figure.

Wife and I are thinking of taking a day trip up to Chicago on Sunday for the Reds game if we can find some other people to tag along and split the gas/parking. Other than that we've got nothing going on.

could have flushed the gunk into the thermo, hopefully they changed it when they did the flush. If they didn't I would demand they put in a new one for free, as that should be part of the package

Don't let them overcharge you and you should get it diagnosed for free. Ask them if they will install the parts if you buy them and you will save yourself about a 20% mark up on the parts alone.

You could actually have more beer money than you thought this weekend.
