    @Big Road Skateboard I see you got the tarps handled. I asked at the mill- "nursery tarps? He hauling babies on a flatbed?"
    Cracked me up. No help anyway they didn't know of anyplace

    Hahaha! Thanks for trying. I called quite a few places up that way.

    One guy said, "Sorry sir, but we sell trucking equipment"

    I apologized for wasting his time and quit trying. Nobody had any idea what I was talking about

    This is a sure sign that spring is here and winter is over. This road is the Wahsatch cutoff. Snows in usually around thanksgiving and doesn't clear up til May usually. PXL_20250412_144915945.jpg

    Got a busy day hauling some roadbase from the ranch gravel pit to our lane today. Can't keep risking front bumpers and skid plates to the swamp below

    Depending on how things go this weekend/next week the KW cab may finally make its way into the workshop. At that point it will be still be on the backburner until I get my bike back together. Priorities, right?

    Parts are getting stupid expensive. I just dropped a grand on inner/outer tie rods, front brakes and shocks on my pickup. The messed up part is that's still less than just one monthly payment on a new one.
