Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

My son can hit better than the river cats....jk ... He's been a shit head lately. But his practice was on point today.

 

Probably a little bit of the current situation. Sit him down and talk to him about that.

 

Yes sir. He tries to be tough. But i know it hurts. Shit, it hurt me when i was 15, he's only 11. I'm going to set up an appt for counseling

 

I can’t believe I am going to have a 5th grader. Time Flys

 

Looks like they need some help with the Dixie fire.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/t...east 30 structures. The fire is 23% contained.

 

damn $13 an hour?!?!? Id think most people would probably happily volunteer to do that... but thats a NICE cherry on top!

 

I was reading the Dixie Fire has all of the Lake Almanor area evacuated and the fire is on the move again. Weather is also changing with a red-flag warning up at 1PM today.

Be nice to get some of that rain UT has been getting.

 

I know Quincy is a long way away for some, but not for others. If any and every one could spread the word, they need help.

They meaning the fire fighters themselves.

 

397 square miles, burned.

12,000 structures threatened.

And if it's so bad they are offering $13 per hour to feed these guys, it's gotta be bad. (There shouldn't be one, damn, asshole within 50 miles of that fire on unemployment right now... but I digress) Bottom line, they need help.

 

@El Taco Diablo and @No Show Shawn

Anyone else change names recently?

 

Funny as hell, and not my doing, but it is only temporary

 

I keep telling myself I am going to change my name since I don’t have my taco anymore, but I can’t come up with a cleaver name yet.. LX5708 is my name in a couple other forums

 

Lmao!

 

Just got mine weighed. Believe it or not, yours may not be the heavyweight round here.

My bitch weighed in at 5980 lbs... That's with tent, full tank, tools, recovery gear, spare driveline, spare CVs, other assorted smalls spares, and me in the truck... no camping gear.

 

Seems about right. I was checking out your leaf springs and they seem to bend the wrong direction. Not a fatass, just uber prepared for anything and everything. That's one of the reasons I like wheeling with you. No doubt that everyone will make it home.

 

Ya... The All Pro Expos are severely lacking for my build. That's why I got it weighed today. Will be sending numbers to Alcan for customs.

I think I've made up my mind on Alcans... until I change my mind again.

 

I think the reason I keep going away from the idea of 63s is how permanent they are.

It's a lot easier to change from Alcans, if I don't like them. Than it is to go back from 63s.

 

Yeah, it's a bad one. It's blowing through secondary containment again and again. There's also a new start down by Colfax. River fire. 1000 acres in 2.5 hours. Structures lost and potential for a lot more.

@Whitebutler You guys around the Dixie fire? Can’t remember where y’all ended up moving after the last fire that claimed your stuff. Hope all of you guys are staying safe.

 

Have a few family members that just had to evacuate their homes over in colfax because of that fire. Looks like its traveling NE towards Rollins Lake.
