Keystone State Thread

Thank you @loosnut for the TW sticker.
Am I official now???

 

Spent my weekend babysitting a 3 1/2 year old and a 2 year old. Enjoyed every minute of it. Good pups and well trained.

 

That's a sweet bike! Make a pros/cons list and see which place will give you the better deal or throw in some accessories.

I think I've seen that around it has a bed rack on it right?

 

Haha right, I drug it home 2 hours and then an hour back and forth to a body shop. It's not too bad but I'm sure I'll be tired of it after the first couple hours riding up there.

 

Saturday did some side work with my bro. Then felt like shit all day yesterday. And still feel like it today. I think I have a case of the mondays

 

My brother went to Temple dental about 25 years ago. Had his crapper beater ford escort smashed in for loose change on the dash a couple times.

 

That's just the brotherly love.

 

I had a productive weekend - finished garage electrical repairs and got some stuff packed and moved Saturday. Woke up early yesterday and went for a ride (so nice having the roads to yourself ) parents came out for a visit, then one last trip to storage.

 

Someone buy this!

 

I stop at Temple every morning is your building near the train?

 

They look like good pups, that's the kind of baby sitting I can deal with

 

Nice - might need to do a TW express via Septa lol

 

@HolyHandGrenade ?

 

Always the case, think you make up your mind and something else tickles the fancy. I'm extremely impulsive, and have has remorse a couple of times. I usually make myself wait 6 months for something like that to make sure it is exactly what I want. Good luck Jerry.

Same, I cleaned up some downed trees last weekend in an area I've been in plenty. Three days later I couldn't figure out where the hives were coming from. Then I saw the distinct lines of blisters and knew. Typically if the winds blows I get the shit, but this exposure isn't that bad. I must've gotten most of the oil off. FML though, I hate that shit.

Well that seems like a more enjoyable way to earn a living than I do. Watch ball and play video while getting paid...Jelly


I took the kids on a local railroad yesterday through the Historic Oil Region. It was really nice and perfect for a rainy day. All was well, but my mom insisted we stay and have a cookout at her place. I came home to these. Motherly instincts were in high gear yesterday. Arrived 60 seconds after.


Not as bad as @Tomshouse516 but a headache I don't need right now anyhow. At least everyone is safe, and most of the damage is superficial.

 

Crap, Mike. Sorry to hear about all that. Is it going to push back all your Tacoma upgrades you were getting on the express?

 

Damn that sux , Glad everyone is ok.

 

Thank you Grand Dave. But I got it all worked out

 

That's terrible! Glad everyone is okay!

 

I feel like anybody in that industry has to have an internal drive to make it through the day to day living of just getting started. Good for you for having the tenacity to stick it out until you got what you wanted/needed.

I will get it cleaned up eventually. The insurance company is essentially paying me to do it. I have maximums for the labor and removal of debris, but they are going to pay me since i'll be doing the work. For once, the insurance company has been really easy to deal with. Hopefully when they get to actually writing a check for repairs they are just as easy to deal with.

It will cut into the time i have to work on the truck, but nothing else. The show must go on as they say.
