    Got the Kubota well broke in now. Got it stuck this afternoon and had to call a neighbor to come pull me out with his Kubota. Sorry, no pictures.

    One of my customers I won when I worked was a candy distribution facility. YES they always had a ton of candy samples in the front lobby. And YES the entire warehouse smelled delicious:)

    I was thinking she was something like that. Acually a pretty interesting color for a work truck, sure beats white. A keyboard pal from another forum showed me an 02 chevy a while back, rcsb 4x4 4.8 5 speed manual, ex forestry truck in that color with low miles. Clean truck.

    Great, now I want ice cream too.......:doh:

    Finally. We were awarded the first big project I've been working on. Still waiting on the others...... but the feedback is positive. Keep your fingers crossed for me, thanks.

    I know the tarriffs sure are affecting my quotes from metal fabricators that I place PO's to.

    Fingers crossed..

    Yeah, steel pricing is changing daily. I have a disclaimer attached to all proposals now, that costs will be adjusted at time of order. And that's steel order, not acceptance of proposal. No way we could keep all that steel in our yard, if the job doesn't start for 4-6 months. It's tough right now.

    Hang in there BK, all your competitors also have the same price increase.

    Lindt Chocolate is one of my customers. Every time I visit they offer either a bag of truffles, or a good sized box of something. Once a year we do a large service for them, and they give our techs a couple of cases of chocolate when they are done.

    It definitely smells incredible in there!

    Last day of a full week of work and I survived. It gets real busy at this time of year and so I always have a couple of projects on the go as well as the regular daily stuff. I hope to finish one project off today.

    We are in for a glut of rain and wind but I think so far this morning the rain is holding off - at least until after our walk.

    We're going to meet up with my brother and his wife at an Italian place for lunch. They have a wood fired oven.
