We are scrapping by. Rental season is picking up so some machines are leaving the yard. Parts sales are doing well - more companies are doing their own maintenance. Service is so-so, Sales are crying poor. I'll upload some pictures of our excess inventory. It's impressive but sad all at once. Not good to have that many machines sitting.

Busy night all night from 7PM to when I finally was able to leave close to 9AM today. I've always been a crap magnet and all my guys know it....didn't let 'em down last night either. Not a bad night all in all...heckuva way to come back though!

And speaking of weather, it's 9:51 here now and still 88F.

Jake if you'd like I could go grab a picture of my KM110 with a similar 4 way brush blade on it.

And my arm hurts!

I just washed, clay barred, and waxed dad's 6.0

If you're ever looking to burn 4 hours or so it's a great way to do it.

I couldn't believe the crab that clay bar took off that truck. The truck had rail dust or something all over the doors so there were little rust spots. It was like having a little eraser. I was able to get most of them right off no issues. Right now I'm taking a break before I head back out to clean windows, shine tires, and clean the interior a bit.

The good news is it's so late that the CT curfew (yet another freedom taken away. WTG, Jodi) won't let me go get Pinkie so I guess I'm stuck driving a DRW PSD tomorrow. Oh drat...
