New England B.S. Thread

I've got my passport. Really just all the different terrain in Columbia just looked awesome.

 

@BostonBilly i’m sorry to hear about your situation at home. Same as Rob, if you want to get together and grab a frosty cold beverage, or go throw some lead down range sometime, I’m down.

 

Thanks guys but it isnt a sad day. This had been going on for a long time, we stayed for the girls and continue to stay for the girls. It just turns into a financial decision at this point once they are settled. The tough times were years ago, we are both past that now. That being said, I will always go for a beer and laughs

 

just let me know when and where

 

I'm at cub scout college with my son today. What's everybody else doing?

 

Worked 7 to 11 and now just waiting to hear from my buddy so I can go give him a hand with some stuff

 

I in

 

It would be a hell of a trip!

 

are we there yet are we there yet !

 

At work... Only had to come in for a couple hours and I brought the little one in with me. He's coloring all over the project plans so I'll have some 'splaining to do to the team come Monday morning. I'll just explain I was highlighting a set for something very important and hope they don't ask a lot of questions.

I would love to take a trip like that. Get one of those smaller off road pop up trailers and I'd be all set. That would be once in a lifetime!

 

Beverage break....
Then, back at setting up my wifes craft/vinyl/leather station in the newly insulated top floor....
Semi-temporary as I need to finish pulling wire, and hang rock... but.... she is always pn the dining room table, or the kitchen island with these machines.....

 

im ready

 

...rumor has it....

 

Hope everyone has a good weekend. I’m off today, work tomorrow, then some bathroom Reno work after that.

 

Just watched that. I need to put an early Xtracab on my lottery list.

 

Followed up today's projects with some subs....
Sirlion meatballs, and finished up nice and toasty under the broiler.

Really need to get bact work on some of the other projects around here, and get ready to set posts for the deck as soon as the ground thaws.....

Never ends

 

Had to go visit the sister in laws new home. The we’re living in Manch Vegas, now just out side of it. Definitely a step up and they got a killer deal on a nice place.

Now brother in law is in search of truck to use for dump runs and plow. He showed me a 2006 Taco DC and a 2004 ford ranger. I hope I convinced him the Ford is not worth the 4K they are asking.

 

If that’s all the truck is going to do, i’d push him toward a 3/4 ton or an older half ton with a solid front axle. Even the Tacoma isn’t going to be a great plow vehicle.

 

I’ll mention it to him, I think he wants smaller truck with a manual trans.

 

Ah, that sort of limits his options. If he wants a small truck, the Tacoma will definitely be a better option but I’d be weary of the weak suspension and having the front end being a ball of rusty metal on the Tacoma if using it to plow. For a relatively dedicated plow truck, a short box, regular cab HD truck is tough to beat in my opinion. The solid front axle is easily serviced and tougher to handle the plow.
