Morning Pat! My BIL came down yesterday and brought me goodies! I got my HUGE tires for the panel and a bunch of tooling for the machine shop. A very nice set of gauge blocks from Pratt and Whitney from 1943. A nice 5-6 inch Starret outside micrometer, three huge boxes of electronic supplies, and a bunch of other goodies!

Will be working on Mikey's 65 today and tomorrow and cutting out 22 inches from the highboy frame. We are working on our plans for our mining trip in July. Lot's going on this week!

Not too hot. We're at 6,200 feet and we've had snow up there on the 4th of July before...

Oh, then that shouldn't be bad. Unless it's cold, of course, then that would suck!!LOL

Hey, did you ever get pics of that bed, and your sheet metal brake?

The days are just right, but the night can get below freezing up there, but for what we pull out of the ground, I'll take it!

I've been so busy with the daughters problems I haven't got around to taking those pictures. Sorry........ I'll try and get them this week...

Morning Don and Pat.

Not too much going on here today. It looks like it may be mostly dry though.

We've had plenty of rain this year. It's snow in the mountains that we need. I think Don got all of it this year. The climate/enviro fascists will be screaming about not water this summer for sure.
