I'm a terrible student most days, compared to some. I am happy to say that I'm officially done with Chemistry. I took it twice in Ely and then I still had to take it last semester, and finally passed. Me and Chem just don't get along...

Just living the dream here up here in the never-ending windstorm.
Hey Jake! Sounds like you are a busy guy these days. Glad to see you stop by again!

Mike hit 3000! Pretty cool. I know. It isn't like it's 791. But, he should be applauded, nonetheless.

patience is key. I will see if I can find my auction contact, and I'll let you know when one comes up

What will potentially hold things up is the replacement bearings. As long as I have it all apart I should really replace the drive shaft and jack shaft bearings. I don't think anyone will have those in stock.

5+ is what they are saying for the Twin Cities.

Good morning guys.

I got our sleds up and running finally. Had one brake that was stuck, but cleaned up and greased caliper slides and all is good. Need to give them a quick once over before next Friday. We are going with Nicole's parents to thier cabin by Itasca. Apparently lots of snow up ther already with good trail conditions and they are expecting 10"+ of snow from this storm.

Thought tommorow would be a day to relax, but the wood pile is getting small and should build it up before it snows again and need to go get hay for horses too. It sucks living in country some times.
