Good morning everyone
Hey John. I'm waiting for baseball season to finish before I start on my truck again. Hopefully after next weekend. All sports will be done and my young helper's will be available. There's also a couple buddy's who I helped in the past with their build's, that want to help. I started wrenching when I was 16, and am paying for it, so all the help I get will be much appreciated. I've been in the office for 8yrs now, and have gotten very soft, but thank god for Aleve, lol. Have a great weekend my friend.

Our dump fees are around $55/ton... maybe $5-800 for dump fees, but the killer is the hauling. I could definately see it costing $20000 in the city. I may rent a backhoe and do it myself if it doesn't get taken care of soon.

It was a running, driving and licensed truck but it sold before I could get there.

Nothing like that here, last night was really nice here. It`s been very cloudy all morning, I`ve got my fingers crossed!

yeah we're flooded. Water in the basement, yard has standing water like crazy, roof is leaking... Oh well... As my great grampa used to say, at least we have our health.

The town of Melville has declared a state of emergency.

That is way to much rain. There was 4" just south of town the other day and there is still water laying everywhere. We only had an 1 1/2" so we were lucky.

Yup its a mess Colin. There is a threat of another 6" or so coming over night. I sincerely hope it decides to fizzle altogether or take another path of less destruction. We're lucky to only have gym equipment in our basement, so our losses are limited to a bit of building materials and hair. The equipment is either off the floor or metal anyway, the most we may have is some rust to contend with. The state of emergencies have been spread across a larger area now... 16 communities and RM's
