Mornin' Bill!

Mornin' Luc!

Josh, these things always arrive in the mail on Friday or Saturday so that you can have high blood pressure all weekend! Bummer! I'm sure it will work out OK in the end.

Ken, it would be a lot cheaper to just get a big tent and live in that while you have a house built.... LOL I always like to watch people trying to get them in and out of camping places that were built before they made million dollar "Tin Tents". A guy here in Geneva sold his business and some business property several years ago for a large chunck of change. So to show off his new found wealth, he went out and paid cash for an $80,000 full size luxury car. Then he bought a 65' Motor Home for somewhere around $800,000. He then went up to the local trailer place to buy a car carrier to haul the car behind the Motor Home. He was not happy when the owner told him that he would have to trade in the car for a little jeep. His total length would have exceeded most states legal limit on vehicle length. Poor guy!;) :rolleyes: Personally I would rather have the jeep and a tent, but that's just me.
Thats on of those, "you have to have a CDL to drive that" situations...
 
Afternoon All ! Just came in awhile ago after shovling the driveway and going to church and what does it do again ? Snows , looks like I never even shoveled. Josh sorry to hear about your so called legal troubles. ray is right , they send those out so you have a nice long weekend to worry about it. President's Day Monday so courts are even closed longer. Ken That would be a nice idea to live in a Bus and build your home. Well going to go out and shovel somemore juust what I had planned for my Sunday !!!! enjoy the day all.
 
Happy shoveling Paul,

Just had the nosebleed from hell, feel a touch light headed now, the sort of feeling you get after several good beer's, except without the pleasure of the drink.

went on a walk into the wilderness of Duxbury wood's with the boy's and next door's boy, saw some big tree's that got blown down over the last few week's storms.
this is about five min's from home, it was a very tall beach tree

About 15 ton's hanging by a few strands of wood

Ken, hope the deal goes through without a hitch and you can get settled into a new house, or bus, or motor home, or whatever you decide to do. Good luck with it!

Seems that we will be having a touch of Spring this week with temps in the upper 60's to 70 degF. That's great news for my heating bills, but hope we don't get any tornadoes with it. We usually have to be on guard when the weather makes one of these changes.

Ken: Hope you can close your deal. Don't forget that it won't take long for a motor home to get VERY small...and where you going to put the layout:confused: :D . Can you lease one for maybe 6 months, a year?
 
Hi All ! Rex we have high winds here but very rarely tornadoes. I can see what the wind can do, hope there aren't any coming your way. It's 38 outside and it feels like 60. When you have temps in the single digits it makes 30 feel like 60. Anyhow it is melting the snow .If we get to much heat it causes flooding in our creeks and low lying areas don't need that either. Well it's Mardi gras time and last day before the lenten season for myself. I'm going to give up all sweets for the season so I hope to loose a few pounds . Keeping my fingers crossed so I don't give in to temptation. well hope everyone has a grand day !!! Ken hope your house sells at a fair price

Hi Bill, Luc and gang!


Steve, I'm glad none of those trees were in your backyard!:eek:

Paul, good luck on your lenten fasting - enjoy those Alcoes! (BTW did you 'win' that B-unit on ebay?)

Rex - hope you and the other 'Bama guys get the best of what spring has to offer and NOT the worst...!

NZKen - Hope those people buy your house, you're in our thoughts. Ray's comment gave me an idea: Maybe you can buy a motor home, put a hitch on it, and do what Cliff Powers ("maandg" on the MR forum) did: Buy an old house-trailer and build your layout in that!


Well, my daughter Sarah got a very valuable lesson yesterday about wearing seatbelts: She was riding in the front seat of her friend's car when her friend got distracted and plowed right into the rear end of another car! The seatbelt kept Sarah from being thrown thru the winshield, she's all sore today in the abdomen and right shoulder where the seatbelt dug-in. Car was totalled, but none of the girls were hurt. (Driver is in in deep s*** though, this was her 3rd accident in the 6 mos she's had her license!) What a fragile thing life is...
