Pipeline, somewhere around Waco. I didn't get all of the details yet. The inspector that we had on the last job up by Bemidgi is a foreman on the back filling crew. When I asked if they needed any help, he said hell ya, we exchanged numbers and he said that he would be calling me. There kicking off Mon or Tues, so I will still have a couple of weeks until they start back filling, so I'm not too worried yet. But it would still be nice to know for sure, like when and where exactly. Good luck on your glow plugs, sometimes they can be easy, sometimes it can be a pain.

I have never seen that before.
Glad you stopped by Toby. Nice to meet you. Good luck on the job search.
Toby, from Grand Rapids. I've been off of work for the last couple of weeks, and I've been trying to get everything in my truck working right. Hopefully I have a job waiting for me in Texas, I'm just waiting for the guy to call me back. Now I'm getting worried because he doesn't answer his phone when I call and doesn't respond to my messages. He's on vacation too, so maybe he doesn't want to be bothered with things till he get's out of New Orleans.
I have a 6.9 diesel in my truck. The other day I pulled off the soup bowl from the air cleaner lid. It was suppose to give me better performance, but it didn't. So yesterday I pulled off the muffler, and holy cow, what a difference. Now I've got the truck I've always wanted, and it sounds mean too. If I get time today, I'm going to run to town and pick up some 3 inch pipe and install the where the muffler was, and see if I can't find a 4 inch tail pipe. That should Make the sound deeper, and get it out from under my truck.[/quote]
We did make it to the rv show. Spent about 4 hrs. there. Looked trough a lot of campers. We are not in the market but we actually saw some 5th wheels that we liked the layout on and for a decent price. Maybe in 7 yrs when the one we have is paid for. lol

Good morning Steve, Jay and anyone else around! I watched the race yesterday and then worked almost all night. Who needs sleep anyway. Yeah Danica is goin to race a few ARCA races and about 12 Nationwaide Series races. I imagine she will eventually move up to the Sprint Cup after she gets a little more experience. Oh yeah Steve she is hot!

I am not a huge beer nut, no pun intended, but I like to try different beers once in a while. I will need to keep an eye out for that one Terry.
Steve, we only received about 1 1/2" this time around.
