Couple of my permissions, 10+yrs
Of looking at the dirt. Not one chip.
10,000yrs they claim they traveled this system.
I guess a picture would have been useful. 🤣

The insides of those bends is where I would look. The NA's would have water on 3 sides and only 1 way in , easy to protect the camp. They looked heavily tree'd so it may very difficult to find anything.

Good morning all.

I think God is telling me to just stay home. First my truck jumped a timing chain and blew a plug out (still working on that repair), then the starter on the car failed. Put a new one on it and that failed a week later. Put another new one on it, and so far it's fine. Then yesterday, driving the little spare truck, the front tire blew out at 45 mph. That was really exciting for a few seconds (and not in a good way). Fortunately, other than the tire, no harm done. Just one more thing to fix.

Yikes.
Lost a wheel at around 55 m.p.h. once...That'll get your adrenalin up!

Your tire failed at the tread...Almost like a retread becoming un-vulcanized in the heat.
Scary stuff.

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
There's a giant doin' cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn
Dinosaur Victrola, listenin' to Buck Owens
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants are playin' in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Dood-n-doo-doo
Wonderous apparition provided by magician
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants are playin' in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Dood-n-doo-doo
Bother me tomorrow, today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancin' on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow, today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door

Well the days are getting numbered out in the fields now.
The farmer stopped to say hello.
I said I'd move over and stay out of his way.
"Oh you don't need to move. You're not going to be hurting anything from what you do"

I do believe that pic should be on a trademark somewhere! You cut a fine figure for what we do and where we do it! :thumbsup:

Been going all day. Mower battery died so while getting a new battery my wife found a table she liked but of course I get to put it together. Hopefully it’s not a big problem. Once she got me a bed stand for under the mattress that had drawers. It was 1000 pieces kit. Took all week to put it together ☹️

I won a BBQ in a roll up the rim contest.
If there wasn't a single part that was together.
I put a metal gazebo up 2 yrs ago.
Crazy about of nuts, bolts, washers, screws, of many different sizes.
I had a saying while we had the business.
"You buy it-buy it installed."
