    Ever watched Forged in Fire?

    I watched several episodes of that a few weeks ago, which I enjoyed.

    I was dead wrong. Going across the 80 tomorrow to SLC...

    Preloaded trailer here's the kicker, scaled it out... 11k steers, 24k drives, 19k/split on the spread axle...... mother####ers. I hate pulling this ####.

    I used to watch Memphis wresting as a kid, all but a trained professional.

    Now that would look very cool!

    Lol now that's funny!

    Thanks @Oxbow I appreciate that! It is my pride and joy and take very good care if it. I try to pick the good days to haul with it but sometimes I just gotta go. I hate running it in the winter as the salt and brine they put on these roads eats away at it.

    I am loading canola. I am taking it to where they actually crush it to make oil and meal out if it. They do pay more per lbs there then running it to the local elevator. However, it is farther from the farm and gets to be long lines of trucks waiting to dump.

    Love that Ontario weather.

    Stopped early again by near zero visibility in Hearst for the night. Wanted to at least make Kapuskasing but the road didn't want any part of it.

    Hopefully by morning things are cleared up and I can hammer down to Ayr for delivery. Things are looking like I'm unloading and reloading at the same place (waiting for confirmation) which would make the return trip that much easier (and possible without a reset).

    Got 1000km to put in tomorrow and likely will stay the night in Ayr (for delivery Friday morning). There is an Esso less than a km from the customer that I'll hit up if the J is full when I get there.

    My favorite show on TV currently. Once my wife and I get our house, I'm going to look up getting into hobbyist black-/blade-smithing.

    Our shop is always throwing out great pieces of scrap steel that would make great knives.
