If so, we probably won't be hearing from them for a little while. Just curious. Avery >> I live on the East side of Portland, OR. On Saturday night it started snowing. Most Sunday church services were canceled. On Monday we had a solid sheet of ice on the streets and I had to skate down the driveway to get the newspaper. I was scheduled to go to the West side of Portland and even though I have a 4 wheel drive truck, I did not want to risk it driving 2 hours to get to one appointment which would be normally 20 minutes, then 2 hours to get home. Instead, I spent a full day in the shop, bunched the rest of the schedule towards the end of the week. The headache drive time turned into valuable shop time. My wife stayed home from work, which enabled me to stay off the phone. It does not always work this way, but I can live with it just the same. One of the benefits of being more than just a tuner.
