Is 191 south out of Rock Springs down to Vernal a better option than 70W considering all the snow/avalanche trouble they're having now?
Coming from KCMO area going to Roosevelt UT

Thanks

191 is closed this time of year. You can run 530 out of Green River but I don't know what it looks like this time of year. I usually run 414 from Mountain View through Manila.

Can you come across 40? Up from I-70 on CO-9 at Silverthorne. You could go up 40 through Winter Park but there is a trailer length restriction on Berthoud Pass.

With my luck, if I moved out there it would never Snow again

Do U have any idea what the going Rate per Hour is on a Western Wideout Plow out Ur way?

Noticed in one of Ur Pictures that U had a Red Plow sitting under the Snow

There was this kid that worked at the WaffleHouse down the road from my house that looks like a young Sam Kinnison. Decent kid, except he was full off crap on some things (supposedly has a CrownVic sleeper that he beat a McLaren on a highway race..."sorry son, there ain't no amount of money that you can shove into a road going CrownVic that's going to make it capable of outrunning a McLaren on the open highway. That's like telling me that you have a Piper that can outrun a BlackBird.")
Anyway, he had decent work ethic and always showed up ready to work and I do respect that.

But then I hear that he's starting hormone treatments and preparing to do a sex change. And this was the kid that got in trouble making lewd comments to some of the waitresses...

O yeah, it's the 21st century and everyone can do whatever it is they want to do and be whatever it is they want to be right? Only on the low end. Some dude can put a skirt on and 'identify as a woman.' I would like to identify as a billionaire. Maybe buy a nice suit and change my last name to Rothschild? See! It doesn't work on the high end. So, I've always been the type person to take what I am and make it the best that I can be. Not through money or surgeries and hair products and makeup because surgery, hair products and makeup will not change who you are. Change is internal, not external.

"But Six, you don't understand...that kid, he's a little fat hog. Maybe he will be happier as a hoggette?"

That's the part that doesn't compute. Take what you are and better it. I was walking at an outdoor concert once, when this massively huge woman calls me. She's a good 6ft wide by 6 feet deep and 5 ft tall. It dawned on me that I knew her from school. But in school, she was an attractive, shapely girl. She's at least 600 lbs now. Do you think she's happy? Even a 3 year old will realize that she can't be happy. Explain to a 3 year old that a 600 lb person is beautiful in their own way. "Oh, honey. She's happy! She get's her hove-a-rounds made by Kubota!" Then again, explain to a 3 year old why Uncle Frank is now Aunt Francine. The 3 yr old will just see Uncle Frank in a dress.

Oh, well...everyone must walk their own path.

Getting more common all the time.... sadly.

Yep thats my 9' western pro- plow..
Thanks for noticing my yard art.
The truck has issues that I didn't get finished ..real bad not having it this year.
Plow rates work out to 25 to 60 bucks a hour.
Right now I'm getting the drive plowed all year for 2 cases of Yuengling's .... And I'll get to drink half of them. #### good deal.

Quick lesson, 396 and 402 was a different casting. There was never a 4 bolt main 396. There were 402 that was 4 bolt sold and badged as a 396. Due to gm policy till 1970 limiting midsize, and compact to under 400 cu in. 402 availible in full size and pickups. Nova, Chevelle, Camaro 396 was available 325, 350, 375 hp. Only the 325hp was a 396. 1970 they lifted the rule.

If memory serves.... early 402’s were GM’s grasping at a way to save 1000’s of 396 blocks by boring them .030 over and use them versus recast them. Seems in my mind I have literature here somewhere on it. I could be wrong, I have been before.
