Weekend Update
This weekend Liz and I went to the Minneapolis Orchestra.
Liz at the restaurant before the concert.
In other news:
Last week we had some snow and as luck would have it with a fleet of four wheel drive vehicles, both Kate and Gerardo were out in it with the two wheel drive cars!
Gerardo got the Saturn stuck and in the process of getting it "unstuck" broke the windshield wiper transmission. The first step in the repair was to remove the wiper arms, but they were frozen onto the shafts! The cheapest professional puller was $104 but I was able to make my standard gear puller work after some effort.
With the wiper arms removed I then had to get the cover panel off.
That required the removal of the hood.
The wiper transmission and motor removed.
A close-up of the broken part. Since there are no more Saturn dealers, I have had to order the part on line and it will take a few days before the story continues.
