Thanks man.
It makes the upstairs look old and wore out though. 6 years of kids, spills, dogs, boots... I got 1/2 a mind to at least put new carpet up there.
Wife says let new owners do it.

We found a house I really like there, but the drive may be too long for the wife. House is cool, 3 car attached garage, 30x40 pole shed w/ electric and concrete floor. Don't know much about the house, I didn't look at it.

What are you going to do down there? I need to get a job....Right now I'm talking with the company I work for about a home office. It is feasable, and really quite possible. I would LOVE that to happen. They're great folks. I'm a civil engineering tech. fancy name for road builder.

Hey everybody, look at what a great winter driver weezy is!! You will notice her little brother in the photos digging out the front wheels to lock the hubs in. Coming off a paved county road turning onto a snow packed slick unpaved county road. No need to slow down, engage turning sequence left, truck should travel left now.... why isn't it working? oh no.... lock up the brakes.... crap.

Looks like Browny is none the worse for wear, Weezy, maybe not so much. Dave, were you able to just drive it out or did it need to be pulled out?

Pretty sure we've all done it Dave. No one was hurt and hopefully it will be stored in her memory under lessens learned. Beside, she has two younger brothers to remind her and everyone else.
