My C10

Lower the C10 they said. It'll be fun they said.
A couple of my friends jokingly gave me similar comments of Mylan why don't you get up to about 20 mph in your truck then let the air out of the system and let your bumper plow the snow. I didn't find this as funny as they did.
This past week has been fun lots of hard-work but it has really paid off  with work canceled I supplemented this one night running a plow truck with my uncle then during the days using my snow blowers to clean off residential drive ways it was very profitable. Unfortunately I haven't been able to drive my truck at all really I think i was able to drive it one or two days in the past week.One time venturing over to my friends i got stuck going into his driveway but was able to get it rocked out without having to get a push.I was really hoping that school was going to be canceled tonight but oh well this peer review has to happen sooner or later.


This weather really has me bummed I have some projects in mind  for my truck but with out a heated garage nothing is going to happen.

mixed week

My week comes to a close , I have been sick most of the week missed all my classes and one day of work. I am at work now still not feeling great. Some highlights of the week were my brother coming in back to Kansas he works in Ghila Bend Arizona  as a union pipe-fitter  He is only 20 years old and has already been promoted to a foreman  he runs a crew of six guys. I've got to say i'm proud of the guy. we installed the lift kit on his 04 Crew cab f150 he dropped it off at the shop down the road from us to have a few things like getting the gearing changed  that we didn't feel confident in trying to do ourselves. from what I understand he is going to get the truck back Monday problem with that is he flys back to Gihla Bend  on Monday. The day before he flew back to KC he sold his 1960 ford falcon . It was a car he bought out there so he would have something to drive other than the work truck. It was almost completely restored when he purchased it and he did a little work to it. It was purchased for something like $4500 and he sold it for $9000 and when ever you can make a profit on  a classic car it is the best move too sell!
