First day back at work in 5 days....
NOTHING HAS CHANGED...

 

And you expected any different?

 

I didn't expect anything.
Hoping on the other hand crossed my mind.
My new computer showed up and it actually works.
So that's a plus

 

How is the FNG doing ?

Afternoon everyone !!!


This was about an hour ago and the high temp for today and won't change until 1500hrs once it gets colder and the bottom r/number which is 27° is what I woke up to at 0600hrs

Definitely Winter time in the Desert !!

There's not even a chance that the Camaro will even start up if I tried right now !! . There better not be any puddles of water under my Camaro either

 

Good afternoon folks. Made it a short day, tomorrow may be a long day but it'll (hopefully) be productive. Would like to be done with that by the end of next week and move on to some road work.

...still doesn't feel like Christmas.

 

Still working on that retaining wall ??

 

Good evening folks, happy Thursday. 4,days off for Christmas . Pizza and drinks tonight with friends, loving the holidays,so far

 

Evening Jim !!!

 

Good evening Chuck, hope things are well. Sounds like you had a good trip in Hawaii.

 

I'm not Doug but I have Did a year on Recruiting Duty in Lancaster County. Just checked out the website and it wasn't that big back then. And Fenwick fishing rods was still up in Litiz. My first taste of Turkey Hill ice cream. But not my first taste of shoo fly pie. There were several really good bakeries around Lancaster. Even though the station was downtown I spent a lot more time outside town than in it.

I was real surprised to see so many Amish get on and off the Amtrak the whole way to the Buffalo Depew station and back. Funny how much coffee and food has changed over the years. DD used to be pretty darn good. One finally went in here and once was enough for me. There was or is a McDonald's up near Bath, NY off the Southern Tier Expressway that in the 70's the big treat for me was a cup of coffee and french fries. That was before that lady sued them for spilling hot coffee and they dumbed it down. And they still cooked fries in animal fat instead of vegetable oil and they actually cooked them until they were done. Been at least 10 years since been to a McDonald's and have no plans on going to one anytime soon.

 

Yes sir. Didn't go out there today. Tomorrow we'll start cutting and attaching the steel ties. We'll spray the steel with bedliner then comeback next Tuesday and build another tier ontop of that next week.

 

Yum, yum - Turkey Hill is my favorite store bought ice cream. (chocolate with broken Oreos on top)

 

They are one of the few that still makes butter-brickle and the store my wife works in sells Turkey Hill but they can't get butter-brickle....bastages!

 

@Martin64

I like that really feels like temp they have forecasted !!

 

Someone say ice cream, just did a search for this ice cream. Only have to drive about 40 miles to get it. I see a road trip in my future.

 

Saw vise for sharpening hand saws.

 

hi guys and sue.

 

Hi Greg I hope all is well

 

Pretty good.
Got himself in a little pickle today and he was frustrated cause he asked questions.
BUT THE WRONG PEOPLE. LOL
So I lost time and money fixing the mistake but I can’t blame him.
He said they didn’t want to help.
I said it’s not that. They lose money helping. I told you that first day.
It’s not personal, it’s flat rate.
How much have you helped them?
How much have you helped me ?
How much have I HELPED YOU ?

You have to earn it.
I help you cause if I don’t I’ll have to fix it anyway.

The thing is he wants to do good...
I think he’s going to be ok..
