Everything is really good, well other than the fact he hasn't really slept during the night I haven't been around much lately but mom and baby are sleeping on the couch and #1 son is at the neighbors so I figured I'd do a little catching up.



On Edit: Anyone real close to Onieda? It's just north of Utica I guess, I won a belt/disk sander on E-bay and I'm not sure when I can pick it up, I might try Friday morning but I have to work that night

chirp, chirp, chirp...

Nothing but crickets on this thread.



Hey Tim, do you have any pulls coming up any time soon?



Need to get my diesel fix. Last get-to-gether was pretty tame (guess nobody wanted to tick-off Petes neibors:-laf).

 

[PToombs]

Yeah, not much wrenching going on, huh? I thought we'd do a KDP or sumptin. Everybody should have done burnouts when they left!



Tim, how's things going?



It must be that time of year, people are busy and not posting much. I try to pass thru most nites, but no one is home! :{

Truck pull next weekend!!

Next weekend (7/8) there is a tractor pull in Murray, NY, about 40 minutes west of Rochester, I will definitely be there, as there is a 4x4 diesel truck class! Maybe I should bring the car, and leave the truck at home, so you know, I don't get into some trouble...

 

[PToombs]

Hey! Dan-the-man! Nah, take the truck! What's the worst that can happen, break it? :-laf Then you got the car to drive.



I'm taking the camper down to the Steam Pageant grounds that day. Go down on Monday with the tractors. Vacation for the week! Check it out!

Been helping the wife with the new monster, right now it looks like July 21st is the first pull. Saratoga County Fair, I'm working days but if someone says they are going I'll definantely be there. They haven't put the program up yet but I think the pulls start at 7 pm and go till 11pm or so.

 

[PToombs]

Hey Tim, get your sander? I probably won't make that pull, too far on a sunday.

I put that date in my calendar. I will go as long as I am home that weekend. Might be working in Maryland by then

I probably won't make that pull, too far on a sunday.

Hey Pete, you lookin at next years' calendar? the 21st is a saturday this year.

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

I was gonna say, it's a Saturday Pete, get a new calendar!:-laf



I did get the sander and it's pretty nice, heck of a deal for $61 plus I gave the guy a few bucks for delivery. It worked out great that the guys parents lived in the same town as me.

 

[PToombs]

Guys, I looked up and thought the right side of the calender was sunday! In my defense, it was after "beer:thirty"! :-laf

I don't think the wife will let me out! Next week is vacation, and we're spending it at the Deere show.

Tim, glad to hear it!

 

[Diesel Dummie]

Hey pete remember that pump i put on, at you place well it died this week on my dad, oh yeah warranty is a great invention!!!!

 

[PToombs]

Maybe you ought to get one to carry with you! At least you have a gauge so you can see when you have a problem. My buddy refuses to want to know anything about a gauge or lite or anything. Of course, he is on his 3rd IP on a 98. 5 w/ 120k. His maintence schedule is; when it quits, change the fuel filter!



Dan, let us know how you do at the pull this weekend! :-laf

 

[PToombs]

OK, the stress is killing me! I gotta get away. I'm going to the Deere show in Canandagua, leaving monday, back sunday. Try not to ruin anything while I'm gone you guys! :-laf





I hope I can survive with out a computer that long! #@$%!

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

Sure is quiet around this thread with Pete out of town:-laf



The Saratoga County pulls are next Saturday July 21st at 7pm, usually the diesels pull near the end, a couple years ago they went until around 11-11:30pm. I plan on getting out of work at 6pm and going there as of right now, anyone going to go? I might need a ride home!

I am still planning on coming and I'll make sure I have my tow strap with me.

I will also try to remember to bring my camera, maybe we can get some pics and a movie up for the guys that can't make it.

 

[PToombs]

Should I be insulted or not? I just try to keep things alive!





Dan! Where the heck were ya? 843 tractors!

Friday afternoon my girlfriend "reminded" me about her cousins graduation party saturday afternoon. I've got so much booked on weekends this summer I don't know if I'm coming or going!

Heck, I even missed the truck pull in Murray. My dad said, however, there were mostly dodges (duh) a few ferds and one chebby. Most of the dodges had stacks. Double

 

[Jgolden]

Pete who? mesage too short... .

 

[PToombs]

WOW! I'm taking a beating on here today! :{





I'm done for the day saturday. My wife "reminded" me she's going to the K-Rockathon on saturday. I gotta babysit til the early hours. #@$%!
