Nice weather so far today. I’m currently waiting on the kids to be done with 4H. They’re butchering chickens today. Then I’ve got a tractor to fix.

Gee Wiz BJ, On what page of the magazine are the pictures that you took? I don't believe that anyone said there were great pictures of our trucks. Maybe you could give Paige some advice on how to take better pictures.

Rich, I have not received my copies of the magazine yet. Sherry had a friend on fb that post a couple pictures. My intentions were to let the folks on here know that there are pictures of their trucks in the magazine.

Evening all.

I've had the pedal to the metal doing stuff today. I've got a load of gravel coming in Tuesday morning so I cleaned up some more of the roots from the area behind where we park for them to unload it. I got a few more small details done on the cabinet and made the base that the whole unit sits on made and installed in the bathroom. I only scratched the wall a little so I'm going to have some touch-up work to do.

I've got a pretty good list for tomorrow if the weather lets me.

I didn't take any pictures this year. I was just surprised how small they were.

Rich,

These are amazingly clear. What did you take these with? Camera? Phone?

Yes, at least I am pretty sure I took them with my old junky android Kyocera Duraforce Pro cell phone. Yes I should of went to the right a bit and got both trucks in the shot.

Morning all,
Its snowing in Chicago
It's snowing in Chicago

Crazywheel, I'm sorry if I riled you up over the pictures in the builders guide. The article was about the show and I was disappointed over the size and quality of the pictures. I'm not sure how they picked what photos went in the article but some trucks got more page time than any of our Missouri FTE members trucks. This is the first year I didn’t take a hundred or so pictures of the event mainly due to my broken wrist. I was hoping for something more like Rich's photos in the article.

I'm kinda kicking dirt at the hotel waiting for everyone to signal me they're up and running. I'm not sure what's on the agenda today but we'll have a good time I'm sure.

She even got to bring her chicken home. She did the entire process except for killing the bird. I tried to send two geese for the kids to practice on but the instructors said they had enough birds 🤷‍♂️. I guess they will live until the next time we get rid of some roosters.

Good day youins, my house had other plans for me yesterday, an electrical outlet we've never used, I decided to plug something in to and entered the electrical rabbit hole, now that circuit is fixed and the interweb works again. The furnace also got a little finicky yesterday and decided to quit working, I think/hope I got it squared away this morning, nobody local wants to work on the old Lennox Pulse furnaces...just sell a new unit. Two hours with normal operation.
Rich, nice photos!
Have a great day all!
