Harv - Brandi -- pls keep your vehicle problems on your side of the line.....I've got a new sound coming from mine -- like blow-by....kind of a whistle....hopefully nothing serious. Brandi, if you need anything while here- let me know. I don't plan on doing anything today. Taking a breather from projects.

Yesterday was a bad transportation day. We had our monthly gravel road flat tire. Discount Tire knows me well. They diagnosed the jagged puncture as a rock tear.
Our county commissioner's response when asked about blacktopping our 100+ year old county gravel road was for us to get 10 ply tires. Do they even make 10 ply tires?

Yep, I run them on my truck and trailers. Bad enough with the heat in the summer on tires and I still get a few flats (usually) on the heavier trailer though) Load range "E" iirc.

TXdon--Remember the Commissioner's comment when election time rolls around. We had a Commissioner here get the boot last time because he treated the job as part-time, and his roads showed it. TXdon you should run.........I know you would do a better job.

That's too much like like a full time job. I wouldn't be able to take off at a moments notice to do any neat projects.

Don, I roasted myself some Lee County peanuts today. Home roasted with a little butter and salt beats anything I can find in the stores. Thanks for the peanuts.

If we have another project remind me in advance to call my cousin to open the store. They keep them in cold storage there so they should be fresh any time of the year. Harvey is due for some more also. (I like posting that Harvey works for peanuts.:D)

I think they told me years ago at the Lee County Peanut Company that the peanuts would keep in the refrigerator for a year and in the freezer indefinitely. So I always put them in one quart ziplock bags (2# in a bag) and put them in the freezer, then roast one bag of them at a time when I want them.

There goes my reputation.

Did I ever tell y'all that Don has musical feet?

Yesterday I remembered I had taken some photos with the Iphone. Happy was playing in the background when I viewed them and it was a natural.

What had happened was we wanted to explain via text message to Mikim where the new location of the lift was.
