Good morning Troy. Fresh eggs soon for you.
Got the snowmobiles loaded in the trailer finally. Not without some pain though.
I till had the camper hooked up to the truck so I went to unhook and the electric jack didn't budge. WTH? Neither up or down. Took the cover off and one of those switches was toasted and some of the wiring too. Got it to work a little bit then nothing again so I figured with all the burnt and melted wiring I should unhook the battery. I figured out how to manually raise and lower the jack and did it that way.
Got the snowmobile trailer hooked up and the Nytro onto the trailer no problem. Went to start the Vmax and bam the plastic handle broke off into my hand. Luckily there was a rather large knot in the rope so it didn't pull all the way back into the recoil. Fished that out and tried to pull start but no luck. Dragged out the old camper battery and got it jump started finally and onto the trailer.
Glad that project is finally done.

Good morning Troy, Jay and the rest of the crew!
With the nice weather sounds like people are getting stuff done.....finally! We got a bunch more boards on the deck last night. Also had a close call too. Mason was walking on the temp stairs and fell off the deck. by some miracle he just scraped the retaining wall. Des said she saw it and thought he hit his head on the wall. He's pretty scratched up and sore but all good.
