    Thank you sir.

    My truck is a Tradesman model, but I swapped out for a Big Horn grille and wheels, and the flares are similar to the ones that come stock on the Laramies.

    You married well. :)

    She doesn’t look old enough to have been married 40 years.

    Yep. If I cross the Mississippi River I know I've gone too far and I look for a place to turn around.

    Well I screwed up today, and since I ain’t too proud to admit it, here it is LOL.

    Pulled in the sand plant, got my skinny weight, then proceed to the conveyor while the boys are rounding up their hard hats and such. I always try to go ahead and line up the first hole. They’re supposed to spot ya but it saves time if it’s all ready to go when they get there. Now I’ve done this a million times, so it never occurred to me that the guys might not have left the loader in the “up” position when they loaded the last truck last night. Anyway you can guess what happened next.

    Any way to straighten the tip of a turn-out stack and make it look right? I was too disgusted with myself to get a pic but it’s just the top inch or so is flattened.

    Heading to Fremont, NE next week with a reload out of Hays, KS. Running it up to Virden, MB and likely straw coming back to the yard.

    Always nice when you know exactly where you are going some times.

    Going golfing with the old man tomorrow for father's day, second time in a month I've gone since not going for over 3-4 years. Then my wife, sister and myself are going to make dinner.

    Shooter,

    Don't beat yourself up. I confess I ran my bridge crane into the back of my sleeper, it's up high so you don't see it but!

    The redneck in me suggests vise grips bending it out and a little patience, that’s all I got.

    My first thought as well but I know I won’t get it straight like that. I mean it’s still functional and everything, just looks like poop. I’ll probably just get a new one but dadgummit these ain’t but about six months old!
