What garage related stuff did Santa leave for speedy this year?

I got a Sears tire inflater. 110 volt kind to cover the truck tires as well as all the other rolling stock. Set the dial, when it gets to the pre-assigned pressure, it stops by itself. Capacity to 120 psi.

It's $.75 or a dollar to just get air at the local outlets, unless you are buying gas too. That is, if the equipment is actually working today. Even then, seems like somebody is always ahead of me and can't figure out how to use the equipment. And the tires ain't cold anyhow, so ya gotta overshoot, go home, and air-down the next morning. And the blow-up dolls are always getting - I hate to mention this - limp?

Thank you Santa, for a better way.

The "Quilting Mrs. Claus" had to make me a somewhat larger stocking this year to hold the 1/2" Corded Power Drill I needed to install my fuel lines on the new build (among a few other things).

I thought something was funny when I lifted the stocking - WAY heavier than usual!

I've gone back a couple of times to look for my bottle of Bailey's to no avail. Guess I'll have to visit Alan!

Not exactly a "garage related gift" more of a bathroom related gift, but it's the coolest and most appropriate thing my kids have ever bought me!

"Drives of A Liftime" 500 of the Worlds Most Spectacular Trips, published by National Geographics.

FYI. It's over 300 pages with beautiful photos and the author sites the Hwy 1 trip through Big Sur in Northern Calif. as his favorite American road trip.
