    They need a chain off the mast rack and a big C clamp to bite the hopper and anchor the chain. Its a one man job.

    I bet they went on break and will be back. Punchin clocks is a use it or lose it lunch schedule. Not like truckin where you make your own schedule.

    Hwy 40 still crosses the mercoal haul road. There certainly appeared to be activity. The haul road had fresh equipment tracks, train tracks were rust free. Had a beat mining truck follow me out...
    Looks like mercoal and vista are still active. But it sure is not what it used to be.
    Grande cache was supposed to be reopen.
    Was very eerie driving thru there. With the crown land being off limits and spring shutdown still happening in the oil feild. Saw 1 tri drive hydrovac between robb and edson and that was it.

    I sure would love a nice clean old 12V but not for the prices these guys want. Before all this nonsense started i just got approved for a mortgage. House hunting is on hold for the time being LOL

    Her name was Roxy. She was an Armenian girl with an exotic sounding name. Adraxia. She went by Roxy. Naturally, the male staff called her Foxy Roxy.

    I look at the boards every day - today I even had a couple that I clicked on to see details before I closed the window, so that's promising? I mowed a couple paddocks I didn't get to last fall, and now snow is in the forecast. I'd much rather have this time at home when the weather is more encouraging.
