Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Deputy Fire Marshall didn't return my call today. That's disappointing. I'll give it till Monday. She may be working 4/10's.
Been trying to find a 2" at each end version of the CURT 45048 receiver extension hitch, but there doesn't seem to be one. Guess I'll check with Newberg Steel and Fabrication and see if they can make one. I can't believe that Curt or anyone else only make it in a 2 1/2" reduced to 2"...
Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 39.5, wet and scattered overcast letting the sun shine through. Bit of a red sky this morning as the sun was poking up over the Cascades.
Thanks Jim, we had to pull over for emergency vehicles heading out 26, looks like another accident in the same area as the double fatality that happened yesterday.

Rezvani's Latest Post-Apocalyptic Monster Is a Ford F-150 Raptor Underneath
Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. It threatened, but the rain never really hit. A little mist showed up on the pickup hood while I was dinking around in there, but it was never enough to even feel it.
Putting some LED driving lights under the rear end for backup lights. Got the old Halogen off one side and the new light hung. No juice in the harness even though the OEM backup lights are working. I suspect there is a problem where I T'd off the main wiring harness a few years ago for the lights I'm replacing. Too late this evening and getting too cold out to do anymore tonight.
Interesting day here.....woke up to 4 inches of snow.......it melted off during the day......then got a couple more inches around 5 this evening. Spent most of the day at a tractor club meeting, so I didn't even build a fire in the shop.
