And lost 1/2 a load of #57 stone

Of course, me being the nice guy I am, I went up with the skid steer, and cleaned up the mess.




I'm Still looking out for them, I put the pile inside my compound with the locked gate so no one can steal it
Such a nice guy I am, eh?


Just doing your civic duty?.............lol

If the house, it's too bad that those panels will have to go on the "street side" of the roof (if they're going on the roof), as they won't be much use on the "back side".

I wouldn't mind panels if they didn't detract from the appearance. Not-to-mention they're a real problem if the place ever needs a new roof.

Don't laugh, Dave, we used to find that kind of stuff, from some of the contractors we'd hire! If you go down into the Reactor coolant pump bays, the walls are literally covered with graffiti!

I worked up at Hanford for 5 years and It didn't bother me then. Besides, the wind is mostly from the west up there, and that crap would head East, not south!

Yep, I'm guessing it is about time to take off. Been stalling.

Probably going to have a sad task on the schedule for the day. Our 17 year old half wolf/half Shepard is having some serious paralyzed type problems with his rear end. My wife and I have been talking and we have come to the conclusion that it is probably time for the final trip to the vet. I don't think the vet has any miracles left up his sleeve.............................

Later Don! Jim, sorry to hear that. I've had to take that final trip myself, with our last dog. That was a miserable day.
