Any Members in Arkansas?

What's the plug under the passenger headlight?

 

That's the plug for my winch controller.

 

Ahhhhh, that's smart.

 

I saw where he put his and decided to put mine on the driver's side. You know, trying to be smarter. I didn't measure the extension cable that came with the winch and found it wouldn't reach after I had already cut the hole. Had to buy another extension for $75. Not so smart.

 

I spent too much time weighing the pros and cons of each side, chose passenger because it's a shorter run to the solenoid. Driver side is less awkward when actually using the winch though.

 

Wife and kiddo are out of town for a family wedding. Which means I get as much done as possible then sit by the fire in my back yard while wishing I didn't have to work tomorrow so I could sit by the fire in the middle of Ozark National Forest. Maybe next time.

Hope everyone is doing well.

 

Well.....that was awesome for a couple-three minutes. Especially at totality without glasses you could see the corona and jewels around the moon

 

Incredible colors and shadows immediately before totality. Bailey's beads, pretty cool effect

Yeh, you could see several red beads at the bottom and a few more at the 12 and 2 area.......and then it was gone.

Hear 40 West out of Russellville / Clarksville sucks. And EM buddies said a plane with 4 souls went down near Rville.

 

Hadn't gotten any reports on that. Now the traffic fun begins...

 

Kinda quiet in here since the eclipse . . .

Local feeler before posting in the BST thread or *ugh* FB marketplace -- anyone interested in my TRD Pro Fox shocks? I redid the entire suspension and have OEM leaf springs as well if someone wants those. They have 35k miles on them and saw relatively normal use. Mostly city/highway and crawling trails here and in CO, but not beat on. Supposedly they are to be rebuilt at 50k miles, but they show no signs of leaking. Send me a PM if you are interested.

 

This looks like a fun rig. Thailand, anyone?

I’m in!

 

Things are pretty fucky here in Rogers, but my family is safe, and my Taco is unscathed. Really appreciating having a fridge in the bed right now.

 

Glad you and yours are safe. Scary videos coming out of that area of the state right now.

 

It ain't pretty here either. Glad you're safe

 

Rough weekend throughout the Southlands...good to hear things are mostly good. Lots of lost shade, but firewood will be cheap this fall.

Where's @TenBeers

 

I'm here. Josh was way closer to the path than I was. Remember my bag worm question? Well, I spent $150 on chemicals to treat them earlier in the spring. Out of 11, only 4 remain standing, and likely only 2 of those will remain.

Kind of a before pic, note the big cedar on the right:


This is the cedar now:


And those other ornamentals:


And the front:



Good drone view here:

 

Man.....
