Have a good weekend!

I downsized the equipment I have a lot, as part of my destressing.

All I have left is 4 gravel trucks, all are kenworth T800's, and then tandem pups for them, and also 2 trailers the gravel trucks can tow to haul the backhoes.
The backhoes are 4 J.D.'s two are 310's and two 410's....thats all i have left.

Take care and have a great weekend ! :)

Jason your area would be paradise to a dualsport owner.
You can legally ride on roads to trails etc.
Then just keep going....its awesome.

If down here and you want to , i have a few dualsports, we can go out riding, you can ride one of mine, you will be addicted in no time i bet.:-drink

Thats a decent size fleet.


I will remember the offer!

ya just 4 trucks and 4 hoes is not too bad.

Well its an open offer, if you are down and have time to go riding, we have some cool country to be found on a DS bike.:-drink

Thanks, I have awlays thought that a dual sport would be perfect.

All fixed now. Sorry Marty I had to do it.:)

If we have a strike this summer Marty I'll come sweep your floors for you.............I'm serious.

Afternoon BC, busy day on here. Im headin out to bbq. Have to enjoy the sun while it lasts.TTYL

Well, in my case, I have spent a great deal of time waiting for my computer to finish commands. That gives me lots of time to chit chat with you guys:D

Good evening everyone.

Hope you all had a nice day.

#9 thanks for correcting my posts.:-missingt

I'm here to help.

Was a good day till around 4:30 at which point I found out we now have the last two weeks of June off.

Good evening folks!

And Zip, how is that a bad thing, to get a summer vacation?

Hey Pete, how was your bbq?

Good, thanks. I went to one yesterday too. My steak intake is through the roof! Hah

Kind of tough to make a truck and house payment when there is no money comming in. I was off last week as well.

I had steak today to. Nothing like having a bbq when the sun is out.


Zip, sorry to hear that, hopefully things pick up a little. I think lots know to well what that is like, payments, payments and no money intake.:eek:

morning BC!

it's FRIDAY!

Good Mornin All!

Sorry about the bad news Chris, hopefully things work out for ya.

Sorry for coming on so late, got a rush job at work that is keeping me tied up.

What wallz said zip, make the most of it and go on a trip.

Ya that would suck then, i should have read further, before making my last post.

Sorry Chris.

Good Morning everyone.

I hope you are all having a good day.
Jason don't work too hard buddy.

Don't worry Marty, I may be backlogged with work, but the company won't approve OT, so it will continue to back up:)

Hi Mark, how are you?

How are things in AZ today?

Well I guess at least you know you have work to go to everyday.

So is there a lot of building, and projects going on in smithers now?

Our office has 5 full time staff, 2 temporary, and 1 summer student (2nd year engineering). We have $20 million in construction this year and much of it is still in the design phase:-hair

It sounds like I am going to working in Kitwanga and Kitwancool for a few months starting in a couple of weeks, which sucks because my boss wants me to find a place to stay out there and I really aint interested in living in either of those cespools:confused:

A quick afternoon Marty, Jason, Chris, Pete, Joe and everyone else that drops by today.

How is your weekend treating you Neil?

So can you at least come home on weekends?

Who takes care of the horses when you go away.

I have a few more hours before it starts but it should be a decent one and hopefully productive.

I see that you are buried with design work... not my idea of fun.

Az is breezy!!

it is also a bit cooler than yesterday at this time...only 30°C!

I need to fill the waterjugs and pick up some ant killing dust...the puppy goes out in the yard and lays on the anthills and brings ants back in with it!

I don't know for sure yet. I am hoping that I can come home on weekends. I am allso hoping that I can find a nice RV trailer to stay in and a place where I could keep a horse. Then I would haul the horse home on the weekends.

Well, its kinda a toss up between design work and living on a remote reserve for 3 months:)

Hi Neil, how are ya my friend.:)

UH OH, a house full of ants would not be fun at all.


So are fires in AZ not too bad then yet.
We are being all burnt up all over the interior of BC.
The air here is literally a blue/gray haze.

That would be cool.

I have seen some not bad looking used travel trailers here cheap.

Or you could buy a used camper to just go right on the truck.

Well, I crunched some numbers. The cost of me living in a hotel in Halzelton (closest hotel) would be $5317/month including meal allowance, comute time and mileage. Looking at the local buy & sell, I could buy a decent used travel trailer for $7500. I figure I can offer the company $4000-$4500/month and I look after myself. In three months, I could easily pay off the trailer, pay a landowner rent to allow me & the horse to stay on their property, and still make money.

What do you guys think? Should I make the pitch to my boss?

Hello BC and how are my greats friends there today?..

Just trying to hang on for two more hours.

Yourself?
