Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Did a small job in Greeley Ks. today. I’ve seen this truck there many times. Always hoping to see a for sale sign in the window. I’m pretty sure I don’t have enough money to buy it anyway.
That truck makes me want to be a ford guy.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
It was a little nippy here today. Not a good day to paint the barn.
Not a good day to take a dip in the pool either. Have you ever seen a worse looking pool? That's about to change. There's a new Sheriff in town. New fencing is being built as we speak. Pool guy is going to totally redo the pool and the pool house is getting a much needed facelift. This place is a mess but it's such a cool house that I think it's worth the effort to bring it back to what it once was. I'm going in with both barrels, you won't recognize it when it's done.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Hitting ice at any speed is terrible. I can't imagine at hiway speed, zero traction/zero control. It could have been a lot worse.
Those Fords look great in that color. It's so Ford (meant that in a good way) Paul... Wutda???

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Tell me about it. It was sunny and warm Monday. I thought that I was done with snow for a while.
How do you like the crime scene tape in front of my house? No I didn't kill anyone (not yet anyway) The contractors "forgot' to fill up the big hole they dug in my yard. It's been like that for a week. I might "forget' to pay them. I just have to watch that my old dog doesn't fall in. He's blind and can't see the tape. Concrete guy was supposed to measure for a driveway today. That got nixed by the weather. Same with the painters. Oh well.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
How does a contractor leave a hole unfilled? It's bad enough to leave for the day without clearing the walkway. Low impact, guys. Homeowners want as little affect on their lives as possible from our work. It's called courtesy

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I thought at first that they were waiting on some sort of inspection, but nope they just forgot. They said that they were really busy with emergency orders. Lot's of backed up toilets around here I guess. I didn't hire these guys. The new septic tank was part of escrow. I didn't even know who to call at first. Had to call the realtor to find out.

Yikes is right. We have a fellow member here who is a tower climber, Jimer64. He's no spring chicken and has been a climber a long time. You know how when up on high places you hear people say "Don't look down"? He's says the rule of thumb for tower climbers is "Don't look up", meaning don't look at the sky. The movement of clouds gives the feeling of the tower falling or moving. That ground way way down there just sitting still is their friend. The height factor is a given when you accept the job. Either you can do it or you can't.

Here's the report that I read. LOS ANGELES (AP) — A coast-to-coast storm that paralyzed roads and blacked out nearly 1 million homes and businesses was set to pound California on Friday, sparking warnings about floods and blizzards. The National Weather Service warned of a “cold and dangerous winter storm" through Saturday. As much as 5 feet (1.5 meters) of snow could fall in some mountains near Los Angeles, which could create whiteout conditions as winds gust to 75 mph (120 kph) and an increased risk of avalanches, forecasters said. The weather service issued rare blizzard warnings for Southern California mountain areas and urged drivers to avoid dangerous roads. Storms already have battered the Plains states and northern regions of the country for days and the National Weather Service predicted continuing problems from ice, snow and freezing rain into the weekend. My wife was going to go to work yesterday and I told her to be sure to put the Jeep in 4 wheel drive and she asked " How do you do that? She made it to the end of the block and turned around. Snow day. Random photo that I took in my buddy's barn.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I haven't looked but that would probably be the Tejon Pass (The Grapevine) It gets really windy there. It gets shut down a lot. I hate driving on it on a good day. You couldn't pay me to drive on it today.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Yeah, that bench doesn't look too inviting at the moment. Talk about freezing your a** off!
Funny thing about the snow here. It melts fast. Almost none now and we were covered. We didn't get the catastrophic storm today that all the chicken little weather forecasters were squawking about. At least not here. The sun came out. It was still as frigid as my ex wife but not too bad. The roads were clear. I'll take that.
