3Pooches version 3.5

Do not call me on moving day
I bet that things is almost a buck a pound!

 

My back hurts looking at that thing

 

I'll call you to structurally reinforce the office floor!

 

Tessa says mornin' yall.

 

There’s a happy pooch!

 

I think it’s getting fixed this coming week. I know he's out of town on a job this week so hopefully it's getting worked on this week and/or next week. I imagine that's a pretty extensive breakdown to be able to get that front plate bent back or pealed off and replaced...hydraulic ram has to be pulled, pretty sure the cab will have to be pulled since it's jammed up into the leftside (from operators perspective).

I'm ordering between 80 and 120 cubic yards of fill dirt this afternoon, since now my main focus now is leveling for the playset site/builders, plus taking advantage of that project in order to fix the other cleared areas and existing yard for grade and water flow. I know I'll be adding at least one additional swell. So looks like I'll be taking off a few days this week, too, in order to move the dirt!

 

Still a little snow on the mountains today

 

She LOVES going to day cate and boarding probably as much as I don't like leaving her.

Eat, sleep and play with the puppies and staff all day. What dog could ask for more?

 

Time to get the snowboards out?

 

1/4 inch of fresh pow

 

Heart be still

 

You should have gone to Detroit. 4.5 inches where we were.

 

We're getting a little snow this morning

 

Have bus companies figured out how to sync the wipers together yet??

 

No lol. Both the older pneumatic wipers and the newer electric wipers are individually controlled left or right. However, the older pneumatic wipers will sync up if they're on intermittent mode

I will usually keep the right side wiper at a slower pace than the left if it's just spitting out. something about it being further away from me is easier to see out of it with a little more water on the far windshield, so in that way it's kinda useful to have individual control

The older pneumatic ones have 4 knobs: left speed, washer fluid, right speed, and intermittent speed. To do intermittent, have to turn on left, turn on right, then turn intermittent knob. Once the intermittent knob is turned and the little air solenoid is triggered, they will jump together. Push the second knob for fluid, but it won't auto wipe when fluid is dispensing

The newer electric ones have only two knobs: left and right wiper on. On each knob there's 1/4 turn for intermittent speed range, and then indexed spots for low and high. Can push either knob in for fluid and it will auto wipe when fluid is coming out.

They each have their little quirks but that's what makes it fun

 

I was actually snowboarding in CO last weekend (Fri and Sat). Had a business trip in Cheyenne, WY and extended it a couple days to board. My oldest son Bailey (24) flew out Thu afternoon to Denver airport where I picked him up and then headed out to Beaver Creek. We got 12" of snow Friday night and spent all day in the glades Saturday; it was pretty awesome! Still paying for it though, tired and sore, but well worth it.

 

You are far more adventurous with the snow than I am now. I used to downhill ski, but not anymore. My foot doc told me after the medical out of the Corp, that if I wanted to keep my own knees and ankles and do things like walk, that I should no longer participate in high impact sports. So I stopped. Since all I do now is shovel it, you can keep it.

 

Motion is lotion...although I agree there are safer ways to provide the motion! I'm an adrenaline junky, so I'll keep doing it until I can't.

 

I kept doing stuff, just now what I used to. No more softball and basketball (games - still shot around a bit), started bike riding and walking, and worked on my feet in retail and security for a long while and had my own lawn care company for awhile. Jut had to change gears a bit.

 

No thanks
