Yes, I've gotten to help sand the air louvers, "fiddly bits" is a much nicer 
sounding term than I would have used.  :-)  My son and I also get to help with 
the roof, being as we're the taller of the bunch. Nah, we don't take such 
things into the house, would be no quality time with hubby, as he spends most of 
the summer months in the garage, working on something or another. But, at 
least I know where to find him. :-) Like the cars, there's no A/C in the house 
either, so temps the same either way. Though I will confess, if we're working on 
a project in the winter months out in the garage, you will most certainly find 
me working on the side of the car that has the turbo-hearter, and I'll be as 
close to it as I can be, without catching myself on fire.
