The boys and I are off on our guys trip to Florida. My brother's kid is graduating from high school in Clearwater. My nephew decided to come along. Had a little accident hooking up the trailer. The jaws appeared to be latched so I went ahead and ran the jacks up before I did the tug test. They were not latched. Ripped the plug out, smashed the cord and destroyed the spar tire carrier. A couple hours later we were on the road. Got really lucky there wasn't more damage.

Welp, I’ve been off the grid for a bit. Well not at all but offline I suppose would be more accurate.

Been a busy couple weeks two trips south, and now unwinding after day two of flooring.



Down to bedrooms to do now. A lot of stuff in the way, and really glad most of it isn’t here yet.

Also building a couple ladder trucks for our upcoming fire rodeo and for an annual fire chiefs conference.

These are the ladders.

This was the finished product last year.

Next trip out I think some of our stuff is coming.
Oh yeah, picked up a new to me 24’ v nose enclosed. So hauled a bunch of shop stuff, new quad and sea doo out this time.

Some stuff to go back for HH6 to uard sale or whatever she does.

Glad to see lots else going on.

I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb.  I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.

Still working on my floors. Plan has changed twice now with little/no support so I do what seems right. (plenty of odd feedback)

Tore a washer motor down yesterday that wouldn't start, hummed nice! Found the starter board hanging loose in the case (supposed to bolt on top case). Located a new board in Sac, will get tomorrow.

I have been cleaning the side of my house now for 2 days. It was getting bad and now insurance companies out here don't like seeing "clutter" since all the big payouts.

So for the last couple days I have cleaning up the side of my house (you know the side where everything gets dumped/stored) See above post.

It was WAY overdue. Getting things was a chore sometimes and I have found so much stuff that was not easy to locate before. Cept for a few milk crates, most everything was on wheel of some kind. Found a spot where rodents are getting into the house I will address. Didn't really throw out much unless you count dirt/leaves.

Back near my shed is still cluttered some, but better. Can barely get into the shed now since I moved a bunch of wood in there. I "started" making a rack, but started is the word.

Already moved several things back to the side and about 6 tires and old ladder are now on the other side of the house. Wish I had a before pic to share, but no.

Got down to Kentucky and realized my trailer brakes quit working. They were working at the last stop so I took the last few miles slow and easy.
Replaced the plug and now it all works again. When I dropped the trailer we just spliced the cord where it was smashed. It appears to be damaged here too. Missed that before. I am going to strip this all back and see if I can find the broken wire.

Made it to Yellowstone for the week. Eating good, drinking good and lots of hiking will ensue



Supposedly, from a good source this is supposed to be better than Blanton’s

Went to scoop some of the junk from the pool this AM, guess he didn't tread water well.

Spent a few days near natural bridge Kentucky. It's not a long hike but it's a little rough for a chubby 50 year old.
Trying out the Loves RV stop in Loudon Tennessee. 60 bucks. Full hookups. A little pricey but very convenient. I 75 above Knoxville is horrible. Had to dodge pot holes everywhere.

So the fuel line on on the Kubota generator decided to come apart and dump 5 gallons of fuel all over the bed. So that was my excitement for the day. Ruined my big 12 person cabin tent. But I guess I'm still better off than that hay hauler we seen on fire headed the other direction.
Spending the night in Ashburn Ga. This place is awesome. $45 a night with a $10 coupon for the store.
