That sucks. Could be part of the corrective process, build hope and crush it. Asshole thing to do but wouldn’t put it past them. Feel for ya Fred. Hang in there.

Dated batteries, bullshit means nothing, have bought batteries with 5 years left to expire date and they were dead. Like buying a used car over the phone.

Here also. Someone saw one of my urn boxes and ordered one for is wife and one for himself. Picked maple, 8’ clear 1X8 =$165 should make some coin on these practice box in pine
Got another job in the shop. Kind of a piece meal deal. Good customer. He bought a donor Suburban for 600. It showed up yesterday. I sucked 3 gallons of melt-off out of the shop between last night and this morning.
I pulled it apart today. Pretty heavy front hit on his rig. I Called him today to say "get this stinking piece of **** out of my shop". He shows up today and he chains up the fronts to get it up my hill. Took him about 5 minutes to chain up the fronts. The F-350 has a locking rear. I heard the big turbo spool up and hang on. LOL
He comes back an hour or so later with the repair vehicle on the trailer. Cant run empty he says. Typical gyppo logger. We off load it and coax it down the hill into the shop. That hill is a handy feature for non running vehicles. We load up the parts rig with some help from his boys with minimal flesh wounds and away he goes.
HERE IS THE KICKER... The guy is 90 years old. Now there is some incentive to keep rolling.

Morning guys.
We had about 2" of that white crap overnight but should clear up.
I may go out and try shoveling the driveway.
It was 12 years today that I walked out of work for the very last time.
I've never looked back. Just miss the guys I worked with.
We had a lot of fun.
Have a great weekend

Update on remote start.
I tried my wife's fob and was the same result. For ***** and giggles I put a new battery in my fob.
If I go out to start it the engine springs to life and fires right up.
What a conundrum!!!
BTW did you know Canada is invading the U. S.?

Some of us don`t consider that area part of the US due to the perversion there.

When I got home from work yesterday at 5 pm it was about 40*, then it started raining, which turned to snow. By 8 pm we had about an inch of heavy wet snow, so wife and I went out to shovel before it froze. This morning it's about 36* and more snow is expected today and tomorrow, then by Thursday back up to 50*.
3"-6" forecast here this evening through tomorrow afternoon, thankfully all below freezing. I haven't had to use the 28" Toro 2-stage yet, which is odd, but I have to admit I wouldn't mind firing it up tomorrow.
Going into town to order-up my B'day present from my wife this afternoon, and I'm really looking forward to having a dedicated bucking (25" bar) saw here:
Damn, Fred! The details are none of my business (didn't know your son was incarcerated), but if there's anything I can do to help you, please don't hesitate to ask, as you got a friend here.

So we had about 3" of fluffy snow.
By the time I got showered and dressed my neighbour was shoveling my driveway.
Been hovering just above 32F and the sun is out so the driveway and sidewalks are all dry.
Have a great evening
