NW WA Meet / BS Thread

I just need to get it in the next 2 days since I leave Wednesday. Maybe they will have the rest of my stuff after they serve the warrant.

 

Nope, moving for the wife. I have a solid job here that I am very happy with. I have been trying to get this company to want to expand to Spokane, but that is too much of a stretch for them yet.

Where are you looking to move to, pending position? I have been around SnohoCo just a bit.

 

Anywhere out of the main cities. Too tired of big city life, but a move isn't really justified without the right job in the same area.

 

I got out and played a little in the snow on my way back from Pullman. Wish I could've joined you all today!

 

Had a great time just gettin' out. Saw some really weird ice I've never seen before, I'll have to get a picture up soon

 

Where ever you ended up -- you got a great shot!! Feel the cold and so well framed ..... I really have to get out after the next round is done on the truck!!

Thanks for sharing that!!

 

Thanks Tim! It was just west of Kachess Lake on a random logging road not far off the highway.
Didn't venture that far up in elevation cause it would not have been fun getting stuck & not having a winch/someone else to pull me out

 

I want to go play in the snow sooo bad.

Is there anyone in the Seattle/Bothell area that could help me do a Cab Mount Chop? I already have the steel but I don't have a welder or anyone to help me. I would like to do it soon but not in a HUGE rush or anything.

 

A couple of changes for the truck - last Friday I added a BedSlide. I am old and tired of crawling in and out of the bed so I had been doing some research and really do like this!!

Also - SeattleCoug motivated me to take advantage of a day off and drive up to find some snow. Toted the camera along and posting a couple of shots. Hoping this is the first of many photo filled snowy days....and maybe nights...campfires in the snow????

Stay safe and thanks for the motivation!!!!

 

Lets plan to go play in the snow then! What's everyone doing next weekend-- Sunday maybe?

 

I am busy for the next 3 weekends lol

 

Dropped it off a few minutes ago -- driving a 2013 Tacoma DBLC Sport....wonder if it's a plot?? I would never give up my baby!! Should be done in a couple of days!!!

Thanks for remembering!!!

 

Brady - this is awesome news. I was just wondering the other day where you were at with this. Big relief...

 

That slide is nice. If I go with a canopy, something like that would be very helpful!

That's who I got the T-Slot nuts from for my bed rails (tool/hi-lift mounts)

 

Do you know what size T-slot nuts? I was also looking at the Freight Car Bolts (square head). They show the size of the threads but they don't describe the size of the head.

Edit: made no sense

 

Art -

Thanks!! I am finding that I like it more and more....have seen them in contractor's trucks but who cares what I put on it --- stack it with zombies!! I think it is a good idea for camping/recovery stuff -- and especially that cooler that I got tired of lifting and dragging....

Take care!!

 

YES!! Feel very good about ANY property recovery in a burglary -- they usually have the lowest clearance rates of any crime -- that they made arrests AND recovered his property is great!! Best that they hadn't pawned it yet!!

Rare & good fortune indeed!!!!

I have heard the Grizzly ones are too tall, and you need to grind down the face so it doesn't stick out past the rail edge. Not 100%, just heard that through the grapevine.
