Is the pilot rig yours, Grey?

Nope, the pilot is not mine. That Ford is a company truck. Mine doesn't have the snazzy light bar and whip antenna.
I'm in the same company but not associated with the Wind Farm Generation.

Ya might but I can't predict that far out. Sounds like fun. And since Easton is technically on the dry side of the big hill .... we'll see.
From the looks of the Oregon highway cameras today, I dodged a big bullet yesterday. Pulled the gooseneck to Cove, OR. to haul a couple of mares to some folks in Yakima. Roads were clear the whole way. Today it's white-out and chains required from the bottom of Cabbage Hill at Pendleton over the top to LaGrande. Yeow! Timing is everything.

I bet you do Tom, I was changing out a 480V 3ph lighting contactor. As i was in the live panel I was using my handy dandy 1000VAC screwdriver and my pinky finger strayed away twords the next contactor. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ F****** Ouch GD MF piece OF S..... Just the power of L1 through me to the concrete floor via my finger was enough to make me aware of thet particular contactor.
