You can't get any deals in this town unless you're into thievery like some of the bandits..

The curse of being isolated, but then again, the big city isn't much better. Sure miss southern prairie farm towns and they're only 7 miles apart.

I`m glad that we didn`t get rain as the temperature dropped last night down to minus 6, it would be a mess. No sign of an early spring, it`s back to winter here.
A good idea to get the tires delivered to the tire shop rather than you having to lug them around John.
Good day Grant, hope the trucking business has picked up. I`m not sure about around here, things seem to be moving slowly.
Fresh donuts and coffee always hit the spot for me.

I guess it will have to be tomorrow when we get the tires mounted, they haven't called back yet to say if they arrived..

Getting closer to the open road, you must be getting excited. Or glad to be done.

Tires didn't show again so a tracer has been put on them...
I still have a bit of work to do on it Colin but only have the exhaust to do and thinking of buying a kit and welding it up myself..

I did that once and it was easy to do. I would do it again to.

It would probably be aluminized. We used to use it when I worked at Speedy Muffler. It welded Nice with a torch (mig welders were rare then) and lasted much longer than regular steel pipe. I will be using aluminized on mine.
