    They were great to deal with and they didn't charge anything, it took a few days though.

    I've had a few words with the regional manager, can't stand waiting for someone to show up that never does and they did not understand why I was mad. Twice. No phone call nothing. Only reason we still have them is the wife answered the phone when they offered to cut the bill in half.

    Well, -20f here this a.m. Pumping the caffeine into me, trying to motivate myself to go out in that and go to work. Down to 6 shifts. This latest cold snap supposed to subside tomorrow. Nice to see the days getting longer. It is gonna feel really different this spring. Will be able to enjoy those first nice spring days from the wood pile. Since I'll be working on 16-17 and 17-18 supply, there is no real big rush. Gonna get to enjoy the bush as it comes back to life after a long winter. Everyone have a good, safe day.

    Good morning. 14 degrees and I'm working on getting out of doors and finding my way to the woods,,,pacing myself of course, a body should ought not hurry into things.
    Me poor old trusty truck is covered in frost and looks to be in a funk,,a little 4low and a wooded trail will be good fer' his heart, loaded to the bump stops he will be happy like a crippled pig in a puddle of cool mud.
    Uncle Ache has been glaring at me from his shelf with a bad attitude,,I think he's been sniffin' the fresh fuel mix from the can and now he's lookin' for a fight with the biggest wood around..It aint false confidence,,He whipped the tar out of that big beech the last time they met,,Tanked up on that high octane, he whips 'em every time..
    Have a good one out there today, folks, and be safe.

    Cool looking stove for it's day. I'm sure theres a call for it today, some one may burn it in it or someone would like it as a showpiece. It may even look good in a country store

    Wild, be sure to check it over real good. 99 had one in dry storage for years and the thing was rusted beyond repair. Ended up getting scrap value for it.

    Or was it when you refused their tray and pulled out your dinner tray made from a pallet? Maybe? :thumbs:

    The weather here is actually supposed to be in the teens overnight!! Hard to believe but there is a nice south wind helping. Tomorrow and Saturday in the upper 20's lower 30''s! We'll see about that.

    Yeah, I did that earlier this year. I've been using a milk crate and it makes a mess. I need to find a nice metal one that looks good and isn't stupid expensive. I need to look for those old copper oval carriers. I think they were used for milk years ago. But I'm probably wrong. Those are cool though.
