Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
WOW!! The flooded truck left to sit a week was enough. Then the not so small fire?? Jeezy Peezy, that's some real carnage right there! It's like a boat sitting out on the water burning till it sinks. Only this would the whole marina. That sky view really sends it home. Shewee!
And a Hummingbird in the snow?? Certainly never seen that! They are long gone from here long before the first frost

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I took the week off with the plan to work out in my little shop. Snowed day after Christmas, about 6 to 8 inches (quite a bit more other places around here). Next couple days we’re mid teens but no snow. Yesterday it wasn’t bad (still too cold to be in shop) and with the wind and sorta warmer it helped sluff off some snow. Then it went and snowed again last night. Weather app says maybe more? So today will make another day of me not working on any of the projects I was hoping to get done. I have heat out there but it isn’t that effective. Too chilly for my PNW bones to want to work in. Probably balmy in there compared to what you Midwest folks are used to.
Think I’ll start a fire in our little fire pit and sit in one of our overstuffed fluffy chairs

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
After seeing Dieseldawg142 pictures, I'm not going to complain about a little snow shoveling! So very sad to see all that destruction. Did get the 70 freed from it's snowy grave yesterday.

when the water receeded enough to open some roads, this is what we found at one of our job sites. it's a seismic upgrade to a skool roof. we tear off the old roof, then the contractor's crew comes in at night and does the seismic work to the roof, then we come back and watertight them up. as it's the winter, the contractor hired a company to come and hoard the job site (basically shrink wrap the roof). we got very lucky, the hoarding stayed on the side that we had the roof ripped off of, the side that went is not done, but at least we had the roof based in. as it was, there was damage, 'bout 15 G's of water damage and a couple grand of physical damage from the hoarding smacking stuff... check out the water blister that helped bring it down. we cut one blister open and approx 5-600 gallons of water gushed out |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
like i said, we had countless slides all over the place...like this unfortunate guy down the road from me, don't think the geo-techs are gonna let him move back in.
thought it was just another slide, till ya drive around it and see where it came from....poor guy..  slides all over... worst part imo is we lost pretty much every back road and FSR road. me and the dawgs have not been able to get down pretty much every single back road we tried. the valley will look a lot different for riding next summer. there was never a river or creek in this area, took out approx 3 miles of the road |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I have friends just outside of Abbotsford that are still trying to save their home and business from flooding caused by a landslide. The rains just keeping coming without let up making things worse.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I've never heard of a Fendt either. I first saw a Deutz tractor at the first tractor pull I ever attended. It amazed me with it'd torque. My dad said German Panzer tanks were Deutz powered. You know, Diamond Reo tried producing Deutz powered trucks. They had a distinctive look. The first "ant eater". They did not go over well, possibly for the lack of heat
Running this must have been a hateful job . I wonder what they did for a defroster?

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Mmmmyummy! I'm a fresh ingredients guy myself.
Last week I had left over ground chicken taco meat and made a pizza with it. Salsa verde, Mexican four cheese blend, taco meat, refried black beans, chopped pablano pepper and onion bits (also cooked in the taco meat), and some pickled jalapeno slices. Out of the oven i crumbled some blue corn tortilla chips over it along with sazon and adobo. Before going in I grilled marinated chicken breasts last night (smoky habanero). With leftovers I'm going to make another pizza tonight!
