Welcome Sean, I'm new here myself but also in the Medford area, Shady Cove to be exact.

When I posted that it looked to be a great Saturday that was before Pops called, he's 80, to say that the hay's ready to be picked up.

For you, head east on I-84, drive to mile post 151, exit and turn north under the freeway and follow the main road......If you turn south you'll run into the largest irrigated farm in Oregon, 180,000 acres!

The day is just flying by! First nice summer day I have had this year to do NOTHING but work on my truck! I pulled the radiator and installed the fan shroud I got from the PO, put in a new thermostat and flushed the cooling system. Then I built and installed my final version of a cold air intake for the truck. Turned out pretty sweet actually, posted pics in the idi forum if you guys want a look it's New Cold Air Intake & Fan Shroud - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

I used to be a "hay buck", but that has been many moons ago. Shipped containers of hay to Japan. So, even working the hay means it's summer, and we all know what that brings!

Spent my Saturday at Duraflaps getting some flaps put on. I like them! (BS time was a heck of a lot longer than installation, and was enjoyable!)
