    Way to go Lyndsey! That's fabulous indeed! Love Brooklyn's giggle...that sound is a balm for the weary soul.
    I was so proud of myself when I figured out how to change the air filters in my car. The cabin filter was a bit of a nightmare, but once I figured it out I was quite proud. Loving watching you work on Grace. There's always something to do, whether your home or your car.

    Hearing Brooklyn’s laugh just gives ya the warm fuzzes. When she’s older and gets to look back at your videos Matthew she’s gonna see what an awesome Dad she has and yes I know she thinks that now too. Praying for a good Dr visit and once again. You knocked this video out of the park! Oh, give Penny some head scratches from me. ❤️❤️

    Now I love Tank Girl but the tire pressure screen at 6:41 would be pretty darn helpful to air down/up in the backcountry. Thinking of your leg pain in the left leg...your building back up your clutch muscles. After my back surgery driving my manual was painful. I hate to say it but maybe take Grace out less 😥 I'll be sure to get more beer to Lindsey for that koozie 👍

    If l you’re going to be driving/pulling the jeep a lot, it would be a good idea to introduce the spare into rotation mix. That way if you need to use it and use 4wd on the road you avoid issues with differential in tire diameter.

    My doctor asked me where to send my prescription, when I told her stupidstore, she laughed. So glad I'm not the only one who calls it that! I broke down and had Lasik done, and haven't regretted it. Although, if someone's going to have it go sideways, it'll be me. When I healed, one eye is near sighted and the other is far sighted. At least this way I'm not going to need reading glasses!

    ?Question #2? Have you ever thought about getting glasses with spring arms? I love them.
    Seriously, the springs help eliminate the loose screws and bent plastic syndrome of taking them off and putting them on as often as you do and in the one-handed manner we all use.

    Could the leg pain be from riding different in Grace? Getting in and out of her different. You know using different muscles. Just a thought.

      I agree. I have a grand caravan, and easier to enter for me, but my wife's buick lesabre is like dropping down into a cockpit. Have to lift my bad leg to get into it and out, but the caravan floor is flat going in and out, very easy.
