With my equipment and just my 5 ton 6x6 military truck there is plenty of escape routes. Fence, trees, ravines we are going any direction needed to get out. I already hear the stories and how much they hate me, I’m going to solidify their views when we close on the rock quarry everyone is...

Well last Friday I ended up squeezing the trigger on getting that 11 speed transmission instead of putting my spare 9 speed in. Ordered the stick shift with it that came out of the same rig the transmission came out of. So the dump truck is sitting there getting odds and ends done on it that...

This is a nationwide problem. If anyone in here tries to build a new structure in the city limits watch the legal hoops you have to jump through. This all leads up to where our housing market is now. I know of a guy in Washington state on the peninsula who bought raw land in city limits 3 years...

All nice and warm, not a cloud in the sky no warnings of anything then it’s BATTEN THE HATCHES ITS COMING!!! Welcome to out here, better not trust any weather stations. Damn I like this program, winds this high from nowhere would have me scrambling for the barn doors after they been ripped...

Damn flooding out here so much the cactus grows wild…

Exactly a year to the day yesterday, I have since taken the garage to the landfill and about half the house. Each load was about $200. The reason for that is cause it's in a 500 year flood zone due to river nearby, once in 500 years it might flood that far inland. So they want to force people...

Must be a 2011 or thereabouts Ford 6.7 with the ceramic ball bearings, they dusted the bearings a lot till they got it fixed and a recalled in their turbos.

I wonder if they fined the previous owners too? For a place that was pretty well condemned, they should be happy I took the place down. Might not be at their pace, but damn I see more of a problem with trash moving in a standing structure than one in a pile. This is how it looked like when we...

Give me 30 days, sure that's fine I can work with that and understand the notice. You want me to move a house in pieces in 15 days when the dump truck is waiting on a transmission, not fine. Not to mention I have a rip rap spreading contract coming up for a few days then add in rain two days...

Certified letter came in mail from chief of police, a property I tore a dilapidated house down in town we bought and was cleaning up, someone filed a public nuisance on us over it. Now they want me to stop everything and have it done in 15 days or get fined.

Anger and rage is the coffee this morning.

Ask them to put on Bearing Buddy wheel caps if you are inclined to run a grease gun so you can grease them yourself about every spring right before things takes off. Red high temperature grease is about the only thing you would want to use. Other than that unless you see uneven tire wear or any...

I need to start running loads to WA state at those prices.

Forgive me but those don't look like trailer tires, looks like passenger tires. Should say ST on them as Firestone doesn't make ST tires. Trailer tires have stronger sidewall,more UV resistant, and few other things such as turning is less rubbing on tandem axles. Nice trailer though! I need...

As the saying goes in my world, anything can pull anything, but can it be stopped in an emergency. That little blue wire isn't always playing nice after being bounce, jounced and pounced around.

What do you get when you cross a lamb with a lawn chair? Redneck riding lawnmower with free lawn fertilizer :gig

I really want to just slap this spare transmission in, but deep down there is this nagging knowledge if I do, this will happen again. This terrain is too rough and steep with too much weight and torque on the drive train for a 9 speed transmission. That or something else is going to snap, i.e. u...

These Khaki Campbell may be prolific egg layers, but not easy to maintain with their skittish ways. Feed them twice a day in the brooder box, sometimes checking on them more. Each time is like I came in there to kill them even though I raised them from ducklings. Stampeding over each other...
