Morning boys. Its a nice one here. I can see some freezing drizzle coming down, but the temp is awesome. Looking into the forecast shows next week to be a dandy as well!!!


Dealing with stupid sewer issues again. I guess when I was moving a bale into the pen I must have hooked the extension cord running to the sewer pumpout heat trace. It froze over, pump couldn't do its job. Now with a new pump there from suspecting the old one burnt out, it seems that I have an air leak somewhere on the suction side and the pump loses prime. A complete pain in the ***.


Grant, maybe you're rubbing her the wrong way...


Hope everyone has had a good short week so far. It's nearly over now!! Have a great day guys!!

Oil prices is in tank so what`s up with this:
Regular fuel prices soaring at Saskatoon gas stations - Saskatoon | Globalnews.ca
Sewer issues are alwaysfrustrating and most seem to happen in the winter time. At my rental house as the lady was cutting grass she wacked the sewer pump cord not noticing it so the sewer backed up into the basement.
How is the wrenching going on your 56 Grant?

It was nice while it lasted but I don`t see any good reason for it to jump $.20 a litre in 3 days...

There are a lot of oil producing countries that agreed to slow production down so I can see the price of oil going back up because of that, you've been very lucky to have only been paying $.64 / liter, the cheapest it has been here is in Dryden at $85.9, in town where I live it's $.10 more that that...

Morning boys. I've been watching our fuel go up again here too. I sure wish western Canada could form some sort of system to start using our own oil rather than buying from overseas. Think of the jobs it would create, revenue it would create, etc. The Gov't should be...ah...never mind... What's the point in even wasting our time discussing political issues.


Today looks like its going to have a chill to it then back warm again tomorrow. Have a great day everyone!!

Happy Saturday mornin'all. I was also surprised with the jump in fuel prices. I guess when Sobey's and Safeway had Jamie Oliver tell us they're dropping the prices on fruits and vegetables, the oil companies could raise their prices. My 2010 f150 developed a p/s leak I'd really like to go at least a week with out something breaking. This is really hitting my truck budget hard. Have a great day guy's.

That just means you were getting way too much of a break

Happy Sunday mornin'all. I ordered an EFI frame mount fuel pump yesterday of e-bay. Private seller, and saved close to $50.00. it's a start. Hope to get it running this summer. Jordan's hockey is over. Lost 2 straight in the best of 3. he suffered a concision and spent a good 7 hrs at the hospital Friday night. He didn't work yesterday, but will today. I might tackle my P/S hose today if I get the ambition. Have a great day guy's.

Morning boys. Its a chilly one this morning. Supposed to warm up through the day though.


We had our first lamb yesterday. A wee little boy. It was the ewes first delivery and it seems to have went great lol. Cute little fella.


Nice savings on the fuel pump Grant!! I've found an online place called T-Dot performance. They're a Canadian company that seem to have very reasonable prices and usually free shipping. I just look at stuff tho...not that I have any need for parts.


Hope everyone has a great Sunday in store!!
