What if it Snows?

Well I finally got the axle bolts on, had to buy a new spacer between axle and spring, it was worn. Just have torque them some more now. Try to keep them all even.300 lb torque wrench. I need 480 ft lbs. So it’s going to be a guesstimate for now, They’ll need re torqued after a few miles anyways.

 

Them slip sheets are hard to handle on other than a flat smooth sealed floor and with a SS
attachment on the forklift... But, they are flexible, so you could have him lift over the side of
the trailer and you get a hand to help you let them down gently into the inner curves.
Probably be hard to get out, but with your luck on wait times probably could figure a way.

 

I noticed that right off, but did you see that speck of mouse droppings above and a little
to the left of the valley? No telling where others may be.

 

Evening gents .

 

what donut?

 

Night all, I landed a driving gig. Too bad it wont show up as commercial miles. A elderly gentleman needs a chauffeur to drive his mini van (with him in it) to his meetings. $25 a week / trip. Hey, its $25 more per week than I am making now. Something is better than me ragging on you guys all day. grin

 

@Cattleman84 if u headed up northbound 15 in the am . Ill be headed south. Ill wave at ya going by

 

Ive got a splitting maul that needs that process done to it... But I havent had the ambition.

My first winter burning wood for heat I split wood every night with a maul. I was cowboying at the time, so I didnt get home most nights until well after dark. It was an extremely cold winter that year, it was -20° at mid day for nearly 2 weeks... I can remember stuffing that little stove FULL and getting a roaring fire going to get the twmo of the living room up to 65°, but my bedroom was a mear 40°. By time morning come it was about 10° in the bedroom... Even getting up twice to stoke the fire.

The next summer I built my hydraulic log splitter...


The following summer I built this one for my mother-in-law... In trade her live in boy friend gave me a much bigger wood stove, and an '89 F-250 with a 7.3.


Burning wood for heat became much more enjoyable after upgrading to a hydraulic splitter.

 

I'll be headed north from Blackfoot to Idahofalls, then it will depend on where I'm getting loaded. I'll keep an eye out for Blue Bird, what you got on the skateboard?

 

Load of lumber . Holed up tonight just south of the scales at sage junction .
