Good morning Troy and MN. Have a great June and thongtastic thirsty Thursday. Was a really dry May for us and this week is hot. Next week will be much cooler in the 60's. Still not much rain yet.

Had a pretty good Saturday here. Shed now has concrete. Monday and Tuesday to finish it up then I just need to wait for it to cure. Didn't figure out any solution to the Rhino issue. Blah!

Good morning guys!

Looks great Jay! How soon before you can park on it? That sucks you couldn't figure out the Rhino. What's next...keep messing with it or take it to a shop and let them figure it out?

Good morning Troy. Thanks! I think I can start moving stuff in later this week. Probably a week or more for the camper.

I am not sure on the Rhino. I think Chris and Kelly are stopping over later today. Maybe we can brainstorm on it a bit and go from there. It almost has to be related to the new cam somehow I think.

Good morning MN. Have a trouble free day. Going to be cooler and damp week here. Highs in the 50-60s. We do need rain.

What is happening with the Rhino?
Is that rebar on the ground they are pouring over?

Good morning Jim! Welcome to Monday! Going to be another warm week here. High of 90 today.

Yes that is rebar they are pouring over. As they pour over it they lift it up. At least that is what they are suppose to do since they don't have any rebar chairs.

Happy Monday guys. Yes, they lift it as rhe go. Since the truck had to back over a lot of it they cannot support it ahead of time.

Rhino idles for a minute or so then dies. Restarts but it runs less each time.
