That looks yummy. I used to get my wife those candy hearts when Valentines Day was sneaking up on us. A box here a box there. Dunno why but its one of the few candy she really likes. I think its weird. Anyway one year I got her this. Not sure why but she's not as gung-ho about candy hearts since then =)

If I remeber correctly I think they are at least three deep.

Funny! And Killer, nice setting. Life is good

I took this picture (not this year) from in the garage. Went looking for pictures of what snow looks like so I wouldn't forget

Killer Bee · 02-20-2023, 02:13 AM

took kids to monster jam in anaheim today, my first too

speed and agility is impressive - amazing how far and high they jump

we had pit passes before the show for the kids to get some driver's autographs

Did a small job in Greeley Ks. today. I’ve seen this truck there many times. Always hoping to see a for sale sign in the window. I’m pretty sure I don’t have enough money to buy it anyway.
That truck makes me want to be a ford guy.

Not a bad looking Bronco beside it. We still have my Mothers '96

Nothing better than a picture shot of and from vintage rides.

Back in '07 I had trouble from my neighbors. Long story, but a result was they turned me in for my buildings I didn't get permits to build. I applied for permits and a zoning variance hearing was required due to property line set-backs. The inspector didn't cite me for the barn, it was two other buildings. The neighbors behind me had a survey crew out late in the afternoon the day before the hearing, but all they surveyed was our sideline, which gave the backline corner point... showing they were 13-14" onto my property with their shed!

. That stake came out quick and they placed their own markers forward along the line. But I got this picture before they pulled the stake out

I'm a bit concerned about you. Could it be when you had that accident in your Ford Van a piece of it is still in your head causing an infection?

I chose to be a Chevy (&GMC) guy at some point in life and it was an "ownership" decision. I didn't decide I hate everything else, just a preference. I like them all, if they are older. I really like all the trucks from the '60s/early-70s. The wheels are out of place on there, though. All about opinion, but I'd rather see chrome wagon wheels.

I agree. That's what I like about that picture.

**FleetsidePaul** · 02-22-2023, 02:32 PM

It was a little nippy here today. Not a good day to paint the barn.

Not a good day to take a dip in the pool either. Have you ever seen a worse looking pool? That's about to change. There's a new Sheriff in town. New fencing is being built as we speak. Pool guy is going to totally redo the pool and the pool house is getting a much needed facelift. This place is a mess but it's such a cool house that I think it's worth the effort to bring it back to what it once was. I'm going in with both barrels, you won't recognize it when it's done.

Haha, you could be right and you have a good memory. Perhaps I need to get my head examined. You wouldn’t be the first to suggest that I go see a professional.

I’m not sure what the factory put on that truck, but, I sorta like the wheels.
If I’d had a truck like that I’d work it pulling 12’ trailer to jobs. Then I would get rid of the van. Seems like fords tip over easier than chevys.

**special-K** · 02-23-2023, 12:08 AM

Hitting ice at any speed is terrible. I can't imagine at hiway speed, zero traction/zero control. It could have been a lot worse.

Those Fords look great in that color. It's so Ford

(meant that in a good way)

How do you like the crime scene tape in front of my house? No I didn't kill anyone (not yet anyway) The contractors "forgot' to fill up the big hole they dug in my yard. It's been like that for a week. I might "forget' to pay them. I just have to watch that my old dog doesn't fall in. He's blind and can't see the tape.

Concrete guy was supposed to measure for a driveway today. That got nixed by the weather. Same with the painters. Oh well.

**special-K** · 02-23-2023, 07:44 AM

How does a contractor leave a hole unfilled? It's bad enough to leave for the day without clearing the walkway. Low impact, guys. Homeowners want as little affect on their lives as possible from our work. It's called courtesy

**dave6672** · 02-23-2023, 09:00 AM

Fog in the Kentucky river valley this morning.

I thought at first that they were waiting on some sort of inspection, but nope they just forgot. They said that they were really busy with emergency orders. Lot's of backed up toilets around here I guess. I didn't hire these guys. The new septic tank was part of escrow. I didn't even know who to call at first. Had to call the realtor to find out.

What's this white stuff? It was upper-70s here today. Just today. Mid-50s tomorrow then 30s on Saturday.

Nice tug picture.
