Good evening everyone.
Drove by the gold vault on the way in John. The guy I'm with used to be stationed here and pointed it out to me. Plainly visible, and hard to imagine its significance with how small the building is. I believe most of it's underground.

This whole job needs to be ready to be energized by day's end Dec 21 then we have a few days of clean-up and demobilizing and we're on to the next one. Hopefully with less of a tight schedule.

Still 7 a week schedule with the odd day off here and there. Did 216 hrs for November. October was 272 hours. Somehow we managed Thursday-Monday off for Thanksgiving.

Haven't seen my favorite bank in a long time. If I remember correctly there was a small stone fence around the place. Now I guess they had a woman in there and remodeled the place with a good security fence. Nice picture, we were not allowed to take pictures. If I remember it was 1967 and no entry. Just a drive by.

Can't believe it's Friday already. Far weather weekend coming up and good for next week.
Got our confirmation letter from the bank yesterday. Will pick up the trailer a week from Monday. Merry Christmas Kathy and John.
Put in the Bilstien shocks yesterday. Wow, I can't believe the difference in the ride. My guess the factory Ranchero shocks were shot. Monday the hitch and air goes in can't wait.
I posted in the 5th wheel form and can't believe the respond I got. A lot of good info on what to do and what not to do starting out with a new 5th. It amazes me how helpful the site is. And how people look out for each other.
Just plain grateful.

According to a show I watched on American Heroes channel, there's only a relatively "small" amount of gold (<$50 Billion) in Fort Knox nowadays. The bulk of the U.S.A's gold bullion ($250 Billion+) is in Federal Reserve vaults under Manhattan.
