Where is everyone #5

WOW! Gotta love this part of the country.

Saw that moon when I got to work this mornin but couldn't find an interesting shot for it so I just stood there and looked at it for a bit with hangars and downtown in the background.

Have a great day Shooter!

 

Loving it! I didn't get put on anhydrous, I'm assuming because of my lack of experience with liquid pumps, which I see as a bit of a blessing. I wasn't ready to handle starting the new job AND jumping in on their hardest commodity.

I'm starting fuel training on June 3rd and am getting excited.

 

Sounds like that woulda made a great pic! You should really post more pics from work. Guys like me never get to see the interesting stuff you do.

 

Logan, good to see you’re hooked up and movin. I love seeing pics of that rig.

One thing though, I hope those Texas lease roads and locations don’t give you problems with them tags and bumper lights. I kept tearing my lights off so I ended up making mounts that will “swivel” instead of ripping off.

 

That's good to hear. I've never hauled that style but I hauled blended fertilizer to the farmers in a hook tinder trailer. It had an auger and a generator so you could load it right into the spreaders and they'd run right back into the fields laying it.

I also hauled liquid urea to the storage tanks. I see it still runs $350 a ton, which is why chicken litter is such a good alternative being free.

 

I've kept her for 18 years so far. Sometimes I feel like I hit the lottery.

 

I still value your advice all jokes aside

 

This is essentially branch transfers from the main distribution plant to the individual fertilizer dealers. They usually blend on site for sale to their customers.

ESN is apparently running $750/tonne up here this season, which is almost $33,000 a truck load (43 MT in a super-B). I'm starting to realize why my old company never grew it's bulk division. They had no good contracts and every unit but one was a tandem or tridem trailer. All bulk work in Canada is super-B now.

 

At the Denny's in Gilman Illinois I think. Delivery is just up the road in Ashkum. I have laid around till I'm sore. Yall ever do that?

 

I'm betting a defective shaft. I think you have the same as me, going on three yrs and you know the kind of abuse mine gets !
