    Look Sid is just embarrassed about the back problems stemming from hauling around all those balls. He's just too modest to say it.

    In other news.... It's going to be in the 30s overnight so pack accordingly.

    Well got some slightly bad news. Won’t have the nice tall whip for you guys to follow around this time. The control box for the new whip is dead. I doubt I’ll get a replacement by friday and my old pos jcwhipsnshyt one had 2 pig tails fall off of it so its useless right now

    I'm planning on bringing the RV as to avoid the "cold as a Witches titty" with my lack of body fat I am not well insulated. Pro's and cons I suppose.

    Been working since this Monday trying to prep for the Dez, but it's taking longer than usual because my ADD won't let me just leave things as "Good enough" always have to delve in and make everything more technical than it needs to be. Blessing and a curse in some regards, it's awesome for all my customers but sucks major ass when it's on my end, lol!

    So the buggy is done, bikes are not yet prepped, still have to erect a large carport due to the rain this weekend (that's prolonging my "To do" list) so now I am going to put up the carport, then I can get the RV prepped and trailer loaded, then the bikes, buggy and other odds and ends. And also making sure to prepare things for the rain even though I have a friend looking staying here.
    Being in sunny So Cal, when the rain hits its pretty inconvenient to say the least, yes I am a weather-wuss, not a fam of large temperature swings, I would not do well in Minnesota.

    Anyway, gotta get back at it, if anyone wants firewood I have a lot of it so let me know and you can grab some. Unfortunately my trailer only carries my X3 and 2 bikes so I am very limited for firewood space, but I have so much to burn! 1st world problems I guess.

    If you guys need anything else before I head out tomorrow let me know and Il see if I can help out as well.

    Almost had to cancel the trip since my wife notified me today that all my registration was expired on all my stuff so we've got all that remedied now. I thought it was paid but so much for ASSuming.

    Anyway, I'll check back later on after I do more stuff, always a mad dash..

    if it works for you even half as good as it works for Tundra Dan, you'll be solid
    I checked the weather report on a couple different apps earlier today and everything I saw was low of around 45 and max 15 mph winds so it may not be too bad. Just depends how it wants to interact with the cove.

    I'm still getting the truck ready and packed. Its currently 32* outside for me so that's fun. I wonder what I'll forget to do tonight...

    Weather keeps changing. I packed warm just in case. I still need to load dirt bikes and hook up the trailer. Can't see shit. I'll do that in the morning and hopefully be on the road at 9

    Almost at the campsite.

    While fueling up I noticed something leaking. Seems like trans fluid. Can anybody bring some dextron 3 on the way.

    Thanks, definitely losing ATF. Probably blew a seal or torque converter is leaking.

    At the campsite now, First one here.
