Pat - You need to build an underground, climate controlled tunnel from your house to the shop. Then you won't catch a chill walking outside.

We heat our shop at home with a wood burning stove.. doesn't cost us much of anything to cut and chop wood from the pasture.. Especially when dad makes me do all the heavy lifting

Dad did finally break down and buy a wood splitter though... I wasn't around to swing the maul much last round, and he suddenly remembered how crappy that job is...

Is anyone interested in an aluminum topper for their pickup? My uncle has one that came off of his '81 shortbox f150.

Later, Pat

Good morning all, happy Friday! Might take off early today, to get the yard work done. I don't want to deal with that on my only day off tomorrow.
