I dug a few holes today. 4 actually, but never mind what they were for- if I said I was going to slap up some kind of shed over my grill i'd just open myself up for more ridicule . But I dug 4 postholes because I had nothing else to do, and the ground was so dry it was like powder 8-10 inches deep. No moisture at all. Guess i'll just get some quikrete and put it around the posts, because you can't tamp powder and the holes are only 8-10 inches deep. Couldn't go deeper because of tree roots, rocks, and besides all that, it was too much like work. I'd dig a little, then have a cold drink and rest. Had a cooler sitting on the picnic table with beer and ice in it, and a bottle of Clamato juice. Clamato juice is delicious by itself, but drink 2 swallows of a beer, then pour Clamato juice in it, that's just awesome- great drink! So I noticed some yellow jackets and even a butterfly came over to have a drink. I told them "fine, just don't sting me". They said "no way, absolutely not sir, we'd just like a drink- it's awful hot out here, dry too". So I poured them some beer and Clamato juice on a block of wood- even put an ice cube on it for them. The butterfly didn't drink so I just poured it some Clamato juice on another block of wood- actually the knot that fell out of the shelf on the grill. You might be thinking "what a bunch of bull$#!+!", but I actually took pictures to prove what I say- except for that hole digging part.

Rowdy,..Rowdy- you and this heat thing- just admit it, you hate it too...don't you?

We need rain here bad! As usual, my garden started out looking great- then no rain and close to 100 degrees every day for weeks has just about killed everything. I'm getting plenty of tomatoes but that's all.

Think i'll go outside and dig a hole. I cleaned the truck out a little today. Wanted to wipe it down on the inside with pine-sol, but we didn't have any so I mixed white vinegar and water-cleans OK but now it smells like a pickle factory... which is better than smelling like funk I guess.

It was probably lighter than your Thermoking unit.

You're probably remembering this.

.

I want one too!..wonder if they sell those at Tractor Supply? Just imagine- me-"git me a beer!" Jo-"excuse me?!!" me-"are you deaf- I said git me a #@$% beer, and I mean right now!" Jo-"#^@& you, git yer fat lazy ass up off tha' couch and git yer own #@$% beer!" me-"OK,watch this shit- gimme that remote!" Jo-"#^@& you, git yer fat lazy ass up off the couch and git it yerself!!"

D'oh!!!

10-4, Roger that, sir! I'll do my best with the farmer's daughter.

guess ya got me there- here's me slicing meat while wearing my Rolex.

i'd better not- almost just got the old "fryin' pan upside the head" treatment just for making the picture! some people just got no sense of humor.

...about my grill. Too bad when I looked out the window this morning it had not come true.

http://www.longroadpro.com/ Lots of good stuff on these DVD's, including this W-71 and Dr. Bill's W-71. I have most of the ATHS sries.

This is actually very true Mike. I can seek this unit out and investigate it further if anybody wants me to.

Good, I might have to borrow your "git out of jail free" card sometime, there's a weigh station about a mile before you get to Carter Lumber. They were closed Monday morning.

The three marker lights I put on worked fine, just hooked them up backwards for positive ground. You are correct on the brake lights/turn signals though. I could get one or the other to work, but not both. I ended up getting 2 more lights just for brake lights and wired them to a spring loaded toggle switch that I mounted on the gear shift.

I believe it to be true too.

Fortunately, it appeared to be very friendly! And I saw an older KW in Va. this evening, almost swallowed up by the bushes.

Amen brother! (bulldogman)

yeah, I put LED taillights on the mixer, just had to hook 'em up backwards, they work fine.

I would just check the usual- make sure the trans. and rears are full of grease, radiator's full, belts and hoses are good, got fuel in it, and run it a while and see how it does.
