Are you going to store it inside somewhere hopefully?
?

Mike is letting me store the trailer and the doo out at his place. They will be inside till we build a lean too next to the shed. Then they will be on the trailer under a roof.......

Hi Mike

Rick happy hump day to you as well

If outside at all make sure you tarp it well and maybe plug the exhaust and intake to keep the critters out.

Naw. Just run it good until the motor heats up good and shut her down. Just regular old car wax is great Tom. Main thing is to wash it good but if you wax it now too it cleans up a lot better in the fall.

Hey Dave.

Not sure what it is doing here now, don't hear the sleet hitting the windows anymore. Think it might have turned to snow.............

There is a little bit of thunder to the south too.
