The guy called today and said the transmission is totally "smoked." That is going to be $1,100. The transfer case is also shot and he is trying to get a parts quote.
I am looking around in my sock drawer and my couch cusions for that extra $1,500. Guess I will just have to find it in my emergency fund :-(

We went to Youth Convention this weekend. It was amazing. Glad to be home but I sorta wish it had lasted longer.

According to NASA there are large glaciers of ice on mars! Ice is made of water.
"Scientists analyzed data from the spacecraft's ground-penetrating radar and report in the Nov. 21 issue of the journal Science that buried glaciers extend for dozens of miles from edges of mountains or cliffs. A layer of rocky debris blanketing the ice may have preserved the underground glaciers as remnants from an ice sheet that covered middle latitudes during a past ice age. This discovery is similar to massive ice glaciers that have been detected under rocky coverings in Antarctica."
That was one of the hurdles to colonization. If there is a source of water then we don't have to carry as much with us when we go. It is a very good discovery! According to the article we already knew there was ice in the polar caps on mars.

So I am still busy ending projects. I am not adding anything until I have tied the loose ends on the ones I already have.
