Remodeling or rebuilding? Nice looking lumber. We get awful framing lumber in the southeast.

started as a big remodel, but ended up with 20’ of existing foundation, and some of floor joists. Added 500 sq ft., but new everything except septic

Mudship leaving tomorrow afternoon after work when Kim and I deliver some cruiser parts to Cruiser and Co. for @gonzopancho.

I don’t trust any shipper with the glass, hood and tailgate. We are taking table to daughter in Fort Collins so might as well deliver.

Lots of attention placed on protecting the hood!

Rush stopped by today on his way to Oregon on rafting trip, good to see him

Great to finally stop by and visit Don and Deborah! Got to check out a bit of the farm, progress on the house, Pigs and parts, and then treated to a fish taco dinner at ‘The Office’. To top it off, he loaded me up with produce from the garden, and had a place for me to crash for the night before the last push to Grants Pass.
Can’t thank you enough, Don! Greatly appreciate the hospitality! Looking forward to next time

Rain, rain and more rain!!
2 weeks ago missed chance to travel on one of company jets to see a clinic system. Storms night before flooded both ways to highway from the farm making it impossible for me to leave.

Then while at friends retirement party yesterday couple hours away rains hit again.

Primary road to highway washed out now. Gonna need some serious repairs!

Lady whose retirement party I went to hired me as a fresh EMT at 18, 38 years ago.

Brunas words still ring in my head at the interview.

“Jon, if you f*** me, I’ll f••• you” and she wasn’t talking about in a sensual way!

Whoa, that looks serious Jon!
Pretty cool that you got started as an EMT at 18.

Working moving cars around shop as we try and organize our living space. Used cheaper gojack castors to move the BJ45.

We had to get it out of the elements, needs windshield and some TLC. @Michael B used these in his shop and they worked great although it took the wife and I to move it around. However the BJ45 is a heavy rig! Yes the protective Saran Wrap still on em but coming off soon!

Next I’m moving @gonzopancho rig around to facilitate it being picked up. It sounds like he may need a project!

That looks like a solid turn out!

I would love to included a pig in the pic but with heat index of 103 and wife having hot flashes it was in my best interest to drive something else.

Yeah, best not to mess with a woman having hot flashes!

This year has been quite the adventure so far.
We got back from the Black Hills on Monday. There was a swim race, and then the Black Hills Cruiser Classic courtesy of our friends in the Dakota Territory Cruisers.

Love to see Black hills sometime. Sitting at Pancake house in FOCO about to head south to explore Angel Fire/Taos area. Escape heat some more.
