    :pccoffee: Good morning. Ice melt down was nice being above freezing yesterday but now paying the price. At least got to say above freezing and not above zero. Yet. Back down well before freezing. Snow tomorrow. Spend the day moving the oldest back in with me. His old room is clean some day it will be my office. Maybe LOL.

    That is great Kevin congrats! Wish I could get that through my sons head. Somethings in life take wisdom and experience to understand I guess. And some have to learn the hard way. Hope the work is easier on you now and that enjoy it a little bit more.

    Going to the Post Office to renew my Passport.
    I screwed up and let it expire last Fall as I thought it was good for another year.

    I think I have all my stuff and was told it's no biggie if it just expired.
    I'll check back later as we all know all too well how this will end up.:blahblah:

    I feel this would be a good move for you. Also, you will find once you are there, the majority of skilled tradesman with master licenses like you and I were not able to negotiate their starting wage. This is the case @ my employment. Good news is, you probably can bid on other vacant positions. Hopefully they promote from within. Good luck Kevin!

    Thanks Doug.
    I’m thinking better work conditions and there will always be somebody near to help if I need and for me to help if they need.

    It is comparable to public school system and city positions.

    Absolutely. I was amazed when I started @ the university the lack of turnover. Employees with 20, 25, 30 years in! It's the same people everyday which you develop good working relationships with. Well most of them anyhow....

    No
    Unions aren’t strong at all down here. Almost nonexistent

    Just saw this:
    2lo Module - All Sold

    I looked at doing the 2lo mod to my Tacoma many times, but the wiring involved scared me, so I never did it. If this guy’s product were available when I had my Tacoma, I would have easily spent the $250 for a plug and play harness. He’s sold out currently, but I would guess he’ll be making more.

    Thought some here who tow might be interested.

    Good morning folks. Drinking coffee, dragging my feet. Headed to the office this morning to knock out the majority of my paperwork. I was going to head to the field but that campground is full and I really don't feel like negotiating a dump truck around rv's, people and pull vehicles. So I'll hit the office on a day when nobody is (supposed to be) there and increase my chances of not being interupted.

    Everyone have a great day.
