Job well done
Salvador is probably the most conscientious and competent mechanic I've ever worked with. He runs his one man shop on a pretty relaxed schedule and that is just fine with me. It's a fair exchange for good work at a fair price. In fact I'll be coming back in a week or two for a full tuneup and transmission service.
What a difference the new timing chain and gear set has made! The rig runs noticeably smoother and quieter. It should purr like a kitten after the tuneup - I can hardly wait.

Passing Time in Byzantium
..Byzantium has begun to look suspiciously like my hometown. It has the same people, the same houses, the same goings and comings. But I am a very wise child seeing things very differently. The activities and interests of adults mystify me. They appear senseless. It is like watching the TV with the sound off--and suddenly realizing how ridiculous people actually are.
I expect adults will in turn regard me as ridiculous. Actions people might accept in a child may not seem appropriate in a grandfather. I won't be distressed. I am looking forward to new heroes and new adventures. And if you ask me where I've been I'll say "out"; and if you ask me what I've been doing I'll say "nothing."
