Oh hotdogs, I can see my post from last year was full of all kinds of useful information...or not. I see that akoutdoors and I are close to the same part of Idaho so that's pretty cool. When I'm there that is. Started working overseas in Nov 2007, 3 years after I retired from the Navy. I lived in Layton, UT during the time in between and worked for UPRR in the North SLC yard. Not a fan of traffic so I relocated to Elko and then to Poki. Kinda regret leaving UPRR but at the time it seemed like the financial choice to make. Now I'm kinda locked into this gig as home is far from decent jobs and at 60, it's difficult to start a new carrier. So telecom and IT overseas seems to be the best at this point. I did drive my 80 this past summer but no real long trips. Not sure if I have a bad head gasket or leaking freeze plug but it tends to drink water. Hope to meet you all some year or at least visit the page more often. My brain tends to switch which hobby it enjoys at the moment. Cheers and enjoy the year. As you can see from the car behind, I came through UT to get to ID. Was planning to visit a friend in Grand Junction but will save that for another trip.
