    Sounds like an awesome plan for a day! It was 4* here this morning, I am getting tired of frozen water situations. Milkers will freeze in the parlor between wash cycles… and chores take close to 2 hours longer morning and evening. I goofed off most of yesterday, so probably go out and clean the workbench off in the shop, or some such other brain dead task. After I’m through with this… IMG_4148.jpeg

    Man, it's crazy looking at the photos of snow covered highways from you guys. We have some at home but not much, this was driving south towards Edmonton yesterday. Headed to Red Deer to spend early Christmas with my mother and family. Oncologist says she doesn't have much time left.

    This is why you need a part time job. Give you a reason to get up in the morning and you out of the house for several hours.

    Sometimes it is the way the driver is dressed or projects an impression of needing guidance in detail. Then the shippers break out the handbook with drawings to coach the subject into being able to watch a heavy piece be deposited on a flat transportable surface. Loadmasters 101.

    What were you wearing and what vibes were you generating????

    (Might want to try getting out of the truck holding a pair of needle nose pliers retaining a spread cotter pin in one hand and a clevis in the other.
    Sort of project the impression of knowing that you rode in on a 2 piece rig and know which piece is behind and is the the carrying one.)
    Reek of experience.....:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Humor aside Elmer.....
    Hauling cattle, I never had a yard man or owner come up the chute and advise me how to gate them, nor walk up after I tied the cut gate and comment on the division or how secured. Had they; I would have just bent, untied the gate swung it back, and extended the rope with instruction's of: "Here, You do it."
