I was able to see all 5 of my kids and 1 grand daughter at my house and happy. I got a 36 Chevy Grille and located a 425 Caddy for it. Was suppose to pick it up today but the weather says not too.
 
A sack of coal.:D



I did buy myself a used long frame floor jack. Been wanting one for years, finally came across one at a good price. It's a HF model that they no longer carry, but at the price I got it for, I can put a new cylinder in it when it quits working and still have less in it than a new one.
 
Only tool I got was an 18" metal brake.

Got a MR BEER home brewery kit. Makes two gallons at a time.

I was blessed with 42 relatives at the house for

Christmas dinner......Had the propane heaters working full time in the garage so everyone was comfy cozy....buffet dinner of Turkey, Ham, and all the fixin's...plenty of room for everyone....some in the house, most out in the garage playing cards and talking....it was a very nice Christmas day.....

Best part....This one is hot rod flat black with all the silver / chrome trim....very cool...very unexpected....and very moving for me....

Really enjoyable to read this thread although i feel like i should put WB on my Cmas list for next year. I got some usual stuff but mainly my little family was together for the first time in a long long while. My oldest daughter flew home from China. She hugged her Mother, my ex, for the first time in 5 years. My youngest son flew down from Missoula. My youngest Daughter who is seriously mentally ill and doing wonderfully with medication was here. The big present came when my oldest son walked in the door after not having contact with us for 10 years. I had the best Christmas i could ask for.
