Ever use Glas wax Craig? Amazing stuff if you can find it.

No different actually goes on like a light pink car wax, leaves a protective surface lasts a long time. Repels rain also. Old school stuff there. It is still made just hard to find local.
 
Gonna put some brake hoses on the "One armed bandits" truck today. One armed church bud doing some work around my place here...
 
Wow 12-18 inches of snow predicted in the mountains, that's a bit. More wind coming here, I'm supposed to go install mobile radios tomorrow at our fleet but I won't do it if it's storming up here.
 
You don't get to do the installs in a maintenance bay?

Yes it's inside work. My concern is we lose power at the house, have generator but not auto starting and wife's not comfortable hooking up. Also we lose trees, we haven't had one go into the road, all 3 neighbors have, ours have been picking on neighbors fence : )

We go in this morning, and close on the three-acre lot we bought. It sits to our south and what we look at from the back deck. It was a separate lot to the owner's house and property.
The second time I'd talked to him he told me they were moving. Knowing he owned the lot I asked if he'd sell it. He originally thought he'd try to sell it with the house. I texted back and forth a couple times and he agreed to sell it to us.
I thought his price was a little higher than value, but Cheryl said buy it or we could end up like the guy down the road.
Oh, that guy...he had a small, wooded lot for sale forever behind his house. He told his neighbors no one will ever buy that little lot. Too small to build the size house in this neighborhood he said.
Someone did buy that lot and then moved a dumpy double wide trailer on to it. It's the county and different zoning for that "small lot" Now the lot with a gravel driveway and couple beat up cars looks like chit. The lot boundry is so close he had to build a eight-foot wooden fence along the property line.
So, we are the new owners, and we will control the view for as long as we live here.

:thumbsup:
The way to do it.
 
Exactly. I'm glad we got some of the family farm bought. Once it's gone to someone else it's almost impossible to get back.

Yup.. the family lost a large amount of acreage when I was a kid because the Aunts and Uncles couldn't stop arguing long enough to pay the tax lien.

Which was not a large amount of money even back then
 
I’m still looking at buying land in Montana. Things get tricky there with mineral and water rights, albeit the land itself is cheap enough

Same thing in WV. Land owners sell off the mineral rights and then sell the surface. Not sure what rights surface land owners have in Montana , in WV it's almost none. They can pretty much drop a fracking station in your front yard.
