Where is everyone #5

oh yeah it's nice when by yourself

 

@wore out did y’all ever haul out of Springdale area any?

 

Oh yea, we done the Don Tyson deal lol

 

Holy crap I'm beat! Installed all 4 drive chains in the grader in just over an hour. Just needs some oil in the cases and some wheels and it'll be ready to roll out the door

 

Man....look at that scenery in the background, beautiful!

 

You know @wore out I was born and raised in MO and have made fun of Ar-Kansas many times in my life but that NW corner from Bentonville to Fayetteville appeals to me, to the point I could see me living along that corridor someday, especially if I stay with Maverick.

 

It has to many people. I can't remember the whole story but do some research on the Rockefellers and Mt. Petit Jean. It's a good read I assure you.

We lived over there when my wife was in school. It just wasn't home for either of us, we both really liked it there though

 

I'm so used to living in the mountains after all these years I guess I don't even think about it any more.
But yes I am fortunate to live here with all of its beauty.

Snow in the mountains is almost all gone, should be bare in a couple more weeks except for the glaciers that remain always...then about a month later start snowing again up in the high country. Above about 7000 feet there is snow around 10 months of the year at least. Down in the valley where the town is we only have snow about 5 months a year. I love the snow, and playing in it.

 

I've gotta get my sled out to that area one of these years. I haven't pulled my old 800 out of my dad's shop in over 2 years. Just sitting there all cleaned, serviced and ready to go lol.

 

You oughta run a 359 some day. They are even narrower yet. You can crank up the passenger window without hardly leaning over.
I got a chuckle out of a scalemaster one time. I got the steer tire on his scale waiting to pull ahead when he hollers out.
"Driver. Close yer passenger window"
I'm thinking huh? I hear him right?
He said it again. So I roll it up. He just stared at me for a bit then smiled and said get outa here.
It took a few miles but I realized what he was after. That old truck never had shoulder seat belts. He was wanting me to jump over in the shotgun seat so he could gimme a seat belt ticket.
Fooled him. Lol.
