    I do miss getting out to lock the hubs. Just remember to do it before you get into trouble.
    I remember having to get out after I got hung up. Just a young-in. My uncle giving me crap. But I showed him what that 78 Bronco could do.

    Morning.

    Severe weather came through yesterday.
    Bad t/storms and golf ball size hail.
    This is a pic of a dealer south of us.
    Destroyed every car they had.
    1000 cars...

    127C961D-9211-4633-8255-281F249F9A71.jpg

    They plowed the hail.

    One of the techs heard it was coming.
    So I started a trend.
    I brought my truck in and parked it behind me.
    Soon 7 others had done the same.
    Been years since it rained that hard.
    We got lucky.
    Maybe a touch of pea size hail but it was raining so hard we couldn’t tell.
    Was worried about the Jeep but came out ok.

    Crap jobs
    Crap people
    Crap weather

    It was a crappy day ....

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good grief, that’s a hell of a hail storm.


    Good morning.

    Stay safe out there today.

    Started brushing back the edges of a county road yesterday (the county can only maintain the width of the road by MOU. I get to do the rest). Put out cones and signs, got a few loads piled and then commenced onto what I thought was going to be a good day of hauling and clearing only to have a $6.00 toggle switch (that controls the tailgate latch) die. So after 3 loads that ended production for the day. I really like (mostly) being a single asset but there are days it would be nice to have a 2nd person to help out.
