Cables for the machine took me 3 hours to extract from the wire trough on the ceiling of the floor below, which happened to be shipping/receiving. I crawled on top of someone's office and stood on ladders for hours digging out tangled wire. Major pisser.

So, job took all day. But Havre is a beauty of a town. Obviously BNSF pretty much keeps most of the economy there going. Really nice place.

I drove south until I hit 94/90 whatever it is and made it to Wyoming. Took me ALL day to get out of Montana and I enjoyed every minute of it. I think I want to get property in Wyoming/Montana and spend time up here in the warm months, then winter down south. Sounds good right?
Thanks for the note Joel....
I can picture the pain you speak of. Been there, done that type of thing.
I am sorry I couldn't have been there. I wanted to meet you and it would have been "fun" to help out.....Let alone the big bucks..

The way things are going....Next time I will most likely be a single Granddad raiseing his granddaughter. In other words.... one less "boss" in my life.

Good to hear that all went OK.........and you are still loving the truck!!

Morning Fellas!

It's off to the cabin today!

Boy do I need it after the last couple of weeks here at work....really stressing with the layoffs and re-org

And I tried to make a joke over on the "other" thread.....sorry to those I offended, but I think I fixed it now.

Have a good day all.

I don't think any one was offended...we all seem to be thick skinned in these threads. I like the kidding around myself. I only seem to get my feather ruffled when you challenge the towing capacity of my super truck. I must have been having a bad day...but Roy saved me.
