I have to hope that the price had one digit too many, but either way the truck was super clean.

Happy August guys. I am glad that I was not working last week as it sounds like it was pretty brutal out there.

Good evening everyone.

Last BS thread I'll participate in while living here. Two weeks from tomorrow I'll sign out of work and start moving West. Will be driving back, packing up, and heading out for good around the end of the month. Definitely looking forward to the move, but have been thinking about all the great folks I've met here who I probably won't see again.

Good weekend at the campground. Smoked a pork loin. yumm.

Got to start stacking wood today.

Wife bought a new lap top Dell She will be going from a 7 to a 10. I'll take the old one to the campground.

Tom, if you need a hand with anything let us know. Will do whatever I can do.

Good evening everyone. Feeling worn out...lots to get done and not a lot of time to do it. We've been working lots of hours lately and I've been feeling it lately.

i am now confined spaces certified, whatever that means. unfortunately i still need to refresh my expired osha 10 course. so there is 2 evenings worth of life ill be losing this week.

kyle the grand total was 115- 80lb bags of concrete, and then 4- 94lb bags of portland cement and 20- 50 lb bags of sand. i still need to mortar the joints on the bluestone walk but that wont take much. other than that i think i am done mixing bags for a while. much nicer when it flows out the front of a truck all mixed and ready to go. my original plan was to use a short load mix-on-site truck, but the only company that services the portland area was going to charge me $220 per yard, which is about $100 more per yard than everyone else.

greg when are we DPF deleting the new truck?
