I have been putting quite a bit of cash in my pocket lately from the local loggers, and I had a new one call me today from Mitchel that has 3 trucks with cracked frames. Guess what I'll be doing next Wed/Fri...............

Looks like the word is getting around to be on the lookout for a crack in the frame rail that could kill the driver.

Word of who can get them fixed also seems to be getting passed around, too.

When cash comes a'callin', open the doors!

Fishing was lousy..........water was very cold, fish lethargic and not hitting.
Weather was beautiful, if a little chilly..........Scenery was the best part.
