How'd it go today?

[Dave Shepard]

Nice! All that would be left of an '02 here would be the wheels and the license plate.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Yeah, no salt here. Been down in the valley all its life. Mostly sunshine and rain.
Been waiting on opportunity to find a decent Suburban or Yukon. Insurance check helped it along. Kids getting older, want friends along, need seating. Need to tow once in a while. Just a horse trailer. This one was the 7 seater. 5.7 liter?. Anyway. Pretty bullet proof and easy to work on. 4wd was a must. Get tired of taking the work truck everywhere.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Be a 5.3 liter.


Good engine.

Katy's car hit a deer so we needed a ride. Found this Thursday, picked it up today.
02, but in good shape.

How much did you get it for if you don't mind my asking.

My '98 volvo wagon died (fuel pump parts not available Anywhere), needed a car for appts and dogs, got a Lexus suv, '07 77k miles, $11k, BIL had 2 of them, says they'll go to 300k miles no problem.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Thanks Jim.
It's an 02. 200k on the meter. 3500.

I have a 02 'burb myself. Starting to salt out, but the price was right and I needed a winter beater. Around the salt belt it is nice to have a sacrificial vehicle.

 

[Cobleskill]

I went for the first motorcycle ride of the year. Not a great day, but the salt is finally washed off the road. Nice to be done with this winter. Kind of a miserable one.

Nice! No streetriding here yet. Just some dirt biking and still pretty limited low altitude access to the hills. Getting pretty excited about rolling on the street though. Maybe a week or two tops depending on weather.

Just another day on the fire line conducting hazard reductions. Pics to come later when I get time to upload them

 

[MasterBlaster]

Cool!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

4 set ups, one lift vs .CA black oak. Dead wood and end weight reduction. 6 hours plus 4 hours drive time for the lift. I am tuckered.

It'd de-tuckering time!!!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Yup, picking up some mondo burritos and headed back up the hill.....
Smell like piss ants. Need a shower.

A 12 hour shift at the plant, then stop by my dad's to watch Jeopardy! and hit a bowl. Off till tomorrow night so I think I'll pick up a bottle of Jameson and have a drink and sharpen some saws and tinker with this 034av.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Don't lose your mind smoking the marijuanas!!!

 

[Jonny]

Lol I'll try to keep it together
Still kinda weird smoking w my dad. He didn't partake until 2 years ago when he was doing chemo, fighting colon cancer. It helped him with nausea and appetite, and might've helped with depression/mood. Cancer free now, after they removed around 80% of his colon.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Blow him a shotgun!!!

My little girl had a bag when her bowels burst.

 

[Jonny]

Aww poor kid. That had to be so traumatic. I really hope she's doing better these days.

Pops didn't have to do a bag. He just has to go a few times a day now.

 

[Nutball]

I found this splitting wood. I never see them even half this size. Looks bigger in person.






You only ever see them this big on Man vs Wild

 

[MasterBlaster]

I've seen them three times that size... always wanted to fry em up!

 

[Mick!]

My chip pile is full of those (or something very similar) Lesser Stag Beetle.

 

[Patrick A]

I smile each time I split them in half using the log splitter, makes a boring task almost fun.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Kill that bug!!!
