Three-and-a-half feet long! Gotta' weigh a BUNCH!

There's gotta' be someone "out there" who would dearly love to have those as spares, Don.

The trick, of course, is finding him!

Don, I copied the info on the motors, will give it to the "guy" this week.

That's a sweet building Don. Did they run the base isolated from the grid instead of just backup power? Man that would burn a lot of diesel running the whole place on genset all the time.

Just got back from the fairgrounds to pick up my camper. Wifey and daughter refuse to drive the truck with the camper on so I had to go pick it up.

It's been 70 starts since he' been in the winners circle, so good for him! Are we ready for a fishing trip yet?

They never were hooked up to the grid. Just the gensets, and two 40,000 gallon diesel tanks.

One nice thing I didn't mention about the building was the "pit". The whole building is built over a 5' deep concrete pit. Yup! The floor is made of cement incased I beams. You can walk around UNDER the main floor! Way kool.......

Morning Gerry and friends! The start of another week, but one week closer to spring!

Today the asbestos removal company starts on the Mess Hall. They should be done Thursday, then Harley and I can start the deconstruction, and make some cash!

Good morning Oregon, Monday is upon us! Don, good to hear they're finally getting on that job!

Nice to see Carl Edwards get the win yesterday. I had to jump off of here yesterday afternoon, too many people talking about it, and I had it recording at home!

Be real nice to see this place grow. I've got a company interested in the building I posted pics of yesterday, and they are coming by today to take another look. I've got to go open the gate by 0700 this morning for the crew, so I won't be around much today either......
