If you need a trailer let me know. Right now mine has a load of logs on it, but can unload if need be

Thanks for the offer but I already have an 8 foot trailer which is more than enough to get the stuff she is giving me.

Like I need something else to tinker with!! I will see what condition it is in and probibly restore it. I know he got it several years ago but that's about all I know about it. I want to say it's more like a little tractor than a riding mower but I will see next weekend.

I know what you mean. My list golfcart, 2 generators, the router/ joiner, 2 radial arm saws, the truck. Big projects the land, building new shop here, the repair/renovation on this house and designing the new house.
Lexie wonders why we take a cruise once a year or some type get away.

Sat down and paid all the bills for another month.
I picked me up a 3/4" and 1" inch impact today at work for $50 bucks for both. Not top of the line but functional. Another truck came in today for a transmission job and a ton of other work, problem is I have 5 vehicles I am working on. I should have 2 done first thing in the morning and 2 others are waiting parts. Might find out tomorrow if I am top tech again for the 4th straight month, doubt it but you never know.

I always lived by "Be the best at what you do at the time" My buddy that works in the bay next to me tells me I work too hard too. The one year plan didn't pan out but I still have plans to retire or at least find an easier job closer to home.

that the difference between us and the new kids they do just enough to get by. Although I do have to admit when I was as a mechanic at Robins I got that attitude. There was no reason to bust ***, but if the airplane was behind schecule there was overtime
