Placeholder

I have been busy as shit lately with no time to play here on OD, sigh.

My van has been acting wrong- the transmission was giving me real problems (and still is, kind of)  It was over 2 quarts low on fluid.  I had just had it serviced (twice) and I don’t know where the leaks at, but automatic transmissions need fluid to work properly.

Of course, it’s the first week of the month and there isn’t any excess cash to cover that, so the van is not delivering papers any more, the boss’s stepvan is doing that work.  I need the van to get back and forth to my schoolbus driving job, so it is now officially retired from the paper route.  I have an appointment at Aamco to get the tranny serviced properly there next week, and it works good enough to get back and forth to the bus job (5 miles each way).

As a placeholder while I get things sorted out in RL, here are some pictures from my Natural Wonders folder on Photobucket:
