Popular Post other dog Posted March 4, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2016 What did I do?..Oh, I remember- I went to Lynchburg Monday and unloaded the skidded coils that were in the Conestoga, then I took a van load to Fuquay Varina, N.C. When I got back from down there Tuesday I had to get a drop-deck and be in Ashland, Va. Wednesday morning to load crane parts going to Martinsville, In. There was three loads and 2 were wide so we left the shop at 5am and got to Ashland at 7 so we could get loaded as early as possible and get as far as we could before dark. It didn't matter though. I loaded first and didn't pull out of the building until after noon. Didn't get the paperwork until 3pm. We were all loaded and left around 4, and only got as far as Lee-Hi Truckstop in Lexington. I saw a motor grader way over yonder when I was waiting to back in. Part of the crane- I had this load- the hoists, cable, touch-up paint, the hooks, and all kinds of miscellaneous parts and pieces. We left Lee-Hi at daylight yesterday morning. I got a call from headquarters when we were just west of Lewisburg, W.V. and they said to hold up- there was an issue at the job site and they might not want the loads until Monday. Found out that a man was killed at the job, and they shut it down. We turned around and took the loads back to Lee-Hi and dropped them and bob tailed back to the yard. Heading back into Va... I had cancelled an eye Dr. appointment for the third time to take this load, so I called to see if my appointment time for today was still open. It was, so I told them I would be there. As far as I know now, we're going back to Lee-Hi Monday morning and leave at daylight again. 8 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 How come these pictures are so big? Or is it just me and my interweb machine? Usually they're small and I have to click on them to biggerize them, but they're full size in the original post now. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Gmerrill0516 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 It isn't you imagination. They are big already which makes it easer to see. I like it although it is taking some time to get used to. I used to design cranes like the load you are hauling. It's good to see someone is doing some heavy industrial work out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyGunner Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 You were in Lynchburg and you didn't kill some time taste testing at the distillery OD?

other dog Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 Today I found an old RT910 laying in the junk pile in the back yard, so I put it in the Dodge during the commercials when I was watching Ax Men.

I saw this girl in the Winfall Wal Mart a few weeks ago and I followed her around the whole time I was in there to see if she was going to buy some pants, and when those cops dragged me away she still hadn't even looked at any pants. 3 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
