But for Don, no pain is too much!

If it makes you feel any better, you can send me some of your rainy crap this spring and I wont bitch............too much!

If possible, box them all in one box and put my name on it, so no one opens it up in Portland.

No need to go that far, cardboard is fine............just don't want that downrigger to wind up on somebody elses boat!

The 55gal drum contains soda in bead form, 3/4 full?..........That will fit on it's side under the canopy on my Ranger quite well, storage at the plant here is no problem until arrangements are firm.

PM me your full name and a contact number and I'll give them a call first thing Monday and figure when you could pick it up. Thanks Dave. I really appreciate this...

On this side of the hill if we didn't work in the rain nothing would get done 9 months out of the year.

I've found that it's easier to do it right the first time rather than trying to make time later on to re-do something.

Rats... I was hoping you were going to make a cannon.

I have achieved the ultimate!!!!!!
We got a letter in the mail from the Jehovah's witnesses, that said, "We could not reach you with our message due to your numerous "No Trespassing" signs on your property, so here is a invitation to join us, blah, blah, blah"...............I think it might have been the "If you can read this sign, you are in range" that may have gotten their attention.

Too bad the USPS doesn't have a filter for that sort of thing. Then you'd be golden.

Haven't seen any of them around these parts in over 20 years. Guess we are just not worth saving?




Morning Peeps!
