What if it Snows?

I cant wait til i have to take this tarp off at my delivery, gonna be like trying to fold plywood in that cold ### weather

 

Yup, you convinced me. Van life is for me.

 

I feel your pain. Sometimes I have to sweep out my trailer.

 

Best $100 I ever spent. RIGID battery blower, just enough blow to get the grooves cleaned out and not enough to create a great big dust hole blowing out the trailer.
Well those days are behind me now....Dr's aren't sure exactly what happened, but between the pulmonary issue and the cardio issue got into a very heated exchange with my dispatcher on the phone, next thing I know I'm doing an incredibly close visual of the dining room floor. My son is basically panicked and almost screaming on the phone with someone....I get his attention and find out he has called 911, the 911 dispatch is trying to get info out of Dale and I finally am able to get them to reduce the medic unit to Code 2, no need to scare the neighbors. The engine and medic unit pull up and in walk 2 of the rookie EMT-P's I trained 29 years ago. Brother did I get a ration of stuff on the way to the ER.
But they did get me up to date on all the youngsters I trained that arre now sipping rum on the beaches of retirement. As is protocol, ER notified DMV of the syncapal episode, and my license is now suspended. But they can't stop me driving my baby deere here at home, or my Husquevarna riding mower.
Have 14 weeks of short term disability through the company, and it looks like I will become a "ward of the state" on State disability for as long as that plays out.
Yesterday, mama drove me to a DR visit and then to some errands around town. Going down the highway I could feel my stress level going through the roof....has me wondering if I'm "psyched out" with regard to driving. A freind of mine who I've known for decaades, asked me if this could be tied in to the suicide by big truck I was involved in 12 years ago, so I asked my neighbor (psycologist) if that was possible last night. He said it is possible.
Looks like my days at the wheel are done. Let's see....where do we start on the "home front bucket list"?

 

You really need to be careful doing that. Probably should wear gloves and safety glasses. You could get a blister or maybe some dust in your eye.

 

Hey driver, just pull around and we’ll be out in about 15 minutes to unload you.

 

Well I got loaded and tarped all good 70 miles in I hear hissing at the brake knobs, get out trailer is hissing. Check truckersapp next rest are 45 miles on hwy 86, calling LS now. Red air line last tandom is leaking. I need some red air line and pressure fittings.

 

These are the invaluable shark bites I speak of. They make them for the big lines under the trailer as well. Like $25 each at any trailer dealer.

 

The OM's current thought-

 

I pulled it appart if I had a new brass crush fitting I would be good. Instead 400 bucks for LS to send someone out. Service asked if I could make it to a repair shop. I could gorrilla tape it but if it failed and I have the rear spread lock up, my chains should hold. I have a machine load, don't want to jolt the equipment that hard.
