So in addition to fixing the parking brake this weekend I had to make sure that I have actually asked for the time off. Because that would have sucked if I hadn't done that.

A good working parking brake is definitely something you want need in the San Juans.

Dropped Mildred off for AC and donated the 2f (and 4 Dobinsons yellows) to @Arlo89

Paying some cruiser karma forward. Hope he’s up and running soon!

Also cancelled my U-Haul so looks like I’m driving. That white 80 is coming with us as a first time registrar!

Well it's officially raining ash at my house from the aspen acres fire near Pueblo. We aren't under a threat other than not being able to breath .

Looks like they're working the canyon across from the KOA pretty hard.

That’s great to see, Dan. Thanks for posting it.

There is also now an official FB page for fire updates.

 

[cruiserdan]

Load the watch duty app on your phone and monitor Ouray county Colorado. If you select notifications you will get pinged every time there is an update.

Thanks Woody. You are how I found it.

You can monitor up to 4 counties for free. I'm watching my cabin county, the two counties tha overlap my home in Albuquerque, and Ouray

I got this ping a couple minutes ago

Just had this Lockheed fly over in his return trip to Durango...guessing 3 slurry drops just N of the current fire perimeter, based on the flight tracker.

Acreage updated July 1 to 14,960

Different kind of fire support than I'm used to reading about for the Hercules.

Usually it involves a 105 Howitzer, 40mm, and a 25mm.

@BombCity I’ve been using the Carhartts for maybe the last 2 years. Very impressed with them. One, they look great and two, they are extremely strong/sturdy. And believe it or not Carhartt also has an outstanding dash cover that fits the 60 dash perfectly.

You’ll have to pardon the awful mess, I’m in the middle of the seat install and waiting delivery of a Tuffy center console.

Just ordered one of these. Thanks for the recommendation.

Not quite Carhartt but when my mom was helping me make the seat covers out of a Mexican horse blanket we had enough material left over that I glued it my dash pad for a "custom" matching dash cover

Although myself and @Cruiserhiggs have 4 speed plans for the future, but yes as of now and as of SAS it will have a 3 on the tree

You can run a 4 speed and keep your column shift - check out @red66toy thread.

Did trailer maintenance, it looked pretty good in there but nice piece of mind to have fresh grease and new seals in there when cutting across the Mojave Desert in Aug. when it's typically 110 + degrees

We’re going to have to take a number to drive black bear this year.

Holy crap! That ain’t good.
