But of course, it *is* an E53, rt fellas?
I think the resistors on my LED AE's is fading in and out of service based on heat. Sometimes, the 'check side lights' error would come up and then just as quickly, it'd fade away. The light themselves are my DRL's along with the fogs, so I can see them in the reflections from shiny cars. They never blinked.
Add to that bit-o-fun that my tail lights need to be soldered after fewer than 3 years in service.
Every now and again, the error to check my rear tails would ping up as well. Then the socket would make a solid connection and poof! All good again.
Anyway, I will attack that sometime this weekend.
Minutes after a quick bike repair and test ride in Tampa, I was relaxing in the warmth of a Spring sunset with my nephew, brother and sister in law. This is a new place for them in Apollo Beach, so it was nice to see their new home and relax. Like many of us, it'd been over a year since I had seen them. Always nice to be around the people you can relax with.
After drinks on the patio, a nearby brewery allowed some time and a new friend for about 13 seconds. She went right back to sleep almost as soon as we'd met. This happens to me with bitches in bars all the time.
On our last night, we went to a beach bar to watch the sunset. What are they teaching the kids these days?
But it was a nice sunset looking out across the bay at St. Pete.
And then, the happy E53 surprise of the week. I sooo wanty this for dedicated snows.
And so it was my time to run home. For my last post in this thread, I will wrap up a great day in Edisto Beach. A bit out of order, but a fun story nonetheless. I hope you guys have enjoyed this little adventure. It sure has been nice feeling like catching up with the world again. I'm looking fwd to my new role on Monday. For an added twist (and a huge, why the hell not factor) I selected a MacBook Pro for my new job. That's quite a thing as I have not used an Apple product for my primary device since the MacPlus I had in 1988.
This should be a fun adjustment while I learn a new job. Nothing like jumping into the fire, rt fellas?
