Hows the tractor btw?

 

Tractors getting a real workout. Have about 9 hours on it so far. It'd kind of cool mowing at night, you can see the sparks fly when you hit rocks.

 

Sweet.

 

And front driveshaft #3 seems to be holding up on the crawler. I've been doing a little test and tune work on it and everything looks good. Haven't rolled the truck yet either Damn creek banks.

 

Anything different about #3?

 

It's well lubed and I made sure all the u-joint retaining rings were well seated. Though in general I've never been too successful breaking stuff while wheeling at my place. Cause that'd make recovery and repairs too convenient.

And I'm staying away from the big creek banks... there's enough water in there to drown if you flip it. You might need a snorkle for the pond.

 

Ok.. so here's the plan. Cory will be down Friday morning (read - early afternoon). I have the day off work, so we'll starting playing then. Figure through noon on Sunday, maybe later.

What do we have as far as a headcount? Chef Cory and I will go make a meat run on Friday and hopefully get enough for a couple BBQ cookouts.

Bonfires Friday and Saturday night.... and maybe a few more during the day.

 

Sounds good, Hans I was thinkin about comin down Thurs after work. Or should I wait til Fri morn?

 

Depends on how late you want to come down. Check PM and we'll discuss.

 

So is it just Hans and I on this?

 

Had planned on coming down Sunday, until my work schedule came out. Open to close on Sunday. So I won't be there. Trying to get someone to cover for me.

 

Man that sucks....

 

Garrett should come down.... Cory and I are pretty handy with a sledgehammer when it comes to body work. We could have that Runner straightened out in no time

 

I'd like to but my aunt is in the last 48 hours of her life & I'll probably be headed to Indiana to a funeral by then.

 

Oh wow... Sorry to hear that.

 

Eh, it's a part of life, we're all born to die. But thanks for the kind thought, don't think I don't appreciate it; I just don't view death the way most people do. I like to think it's not the end but a new beginning.

 

Thats a good way to look at it.... I'm kinda in the same boat, to me death really isnt scary, and your right, it is part of life...

 

Yeah, I won't be able to make this one. Plans changed as far as what I get to do each weekend that I'm home this month.

And I won't be in town most of the next two months, so count me out on anything until mid July...

 

Thats too bad..... well hopefully you get a chance to come out later!

 

Yeah, the main reason I wanted to come was to find Hans's place. Oh well, there will be laters.
