Nice rare truck right there.

Yes. Only 1400 made according to the owner

 

[Hinerman]

Has that been repainted.

Yes

 

[chipper1]

Yes

Okay, it looked like it to my eyes but I wasn't sure.
Could you post a few other trucks like it so I can tell for sure.

Well here's a pic of our county jail, neat building, but it doesn't seem to be the best use of taxpayers money.
Glad I've never seen the inside .

Hey you can't be denying them folks a nice view. Probably pretty board up there.

My jackass neighbors property is opposite side of the road from me and is right down near a creek that runs year round. This time of year the water piles up and the creek widens out quite far. I've seen water 1-2 ft awar fron his foundation. The house should never have ben allowed to have been built and he was stupid enough to buy it but that is a different matter.

This year he has resorted to blocking the culvert that drains water from my property side ditch, under the road to his side to make its way into the creek. I pulled the plug for a second time yesterday morning and drained the ditch. The day before I called the county to let them know the water is about 1' from cresting the ditch. A foreman came out promptly yesterday morning and I explained what was happening and that I found a plug and pulled it but I didn't want any trouble with the neighbor and would talk with him. The foreman asked if I wanted my ditches dug and I say certainly. I told him once he looked where the culvert exits he would put 2 and 2 together on the whole situation. He looked at the culvert on both side and left.

I got a call from the neighbor asking me what was up, that his wife said someone was out front. I told him I was and that I pulled the plug he put in the culvert. I told him water was backing up on my property and that it would cause damage to the road and ditches eventually. I also didnt appreciate the water backing up on my property. His reply was that he didnt think it was my property, thought it was the other neighbors (loke that makes it ok) and then asked me if it was affecting me.

I explained again that the water was backing up on my property and flooding it ect...

I exaplained that the county highway foreman came out to meet me to dig the ditchs and his wife might have seen him on his property looking at where the culvert exited...

He was astonished they came out. "How did you get them out there so quickly" he asked. LoL I just told him that I contacted them last fall and again this spring but the truth is because I told them the water was going to crest the road...

Water was all of 3ft deep or slightly more. Only thing I didnt take pictures of was the plug he put in it. We'll see if he put it back in or not. If it is I may have to send him a message and leave it in his front seat of his truck.

Did I mention I hate neighbors? I only have one good one.

Not my pic. My Dad sent it to me, but I am posting it anyway.



He finished his radiation treatments yesterday!
Just getting that pic and knowing that part is over really turned a crap day at work into a good day.

They build a custom mold that he had to lay in to pisition him the same every time for the radiation.
He asked if he could have it, but they told him no.
They also asked why.
He told them "Because my son and I want to blow it up!"

I'm not sure how nice the view is there, the expressway is just beyond the buildings from the angle I took the picture, and there ain't much to see but the parking lot and a field the other direction.

Got a little black locust, you can see the stump from the elm I took down a while ago, I like locust .

My mom and my brother are both survivor's. Its was scary for me. Cant imagine being a patient. I know there are more survival stories than we hear about. You will be ringing that bell soon!

@Mkinslow you can kick it's azz!

Kind of a long story, I will try to condense.
2015. My wife is having random shooting pain from the top of her head going down the side.
She says there is a tender spot on skull and if she taps on her skull, it "sounds" hollow in her ears.
I accuse her of smoking potpourri.

Finally goes in. Gets bounced from Dr. To Dr.
Finally do X-ray.
Azzhole calls and tells her you have a hole in your skull and a mass on your brain.
I want to go kick the chit out of the guy for not at least trying to sugar coat it some.

See Neurosurgeon. Mass is not in or on brain. Inflamed tissue. Remove, patch skull.
We laugh because I was the one who should have a plate in my skull.
3 weeks later, biopsy results.
Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. (LCH).
Think google is broke. Wont come up with chit..
Very rare, 1 in 2.5 to 3 million is diagnosis rate.
Oncologist wants to do chemo, radiation.
Only 5 specialists in the world on it.
Finally get a Doc in Mn. That has delt with it. He wants to monitor as it can affect any part of your body. Bone, like she had, best case. Bone marrow, organ bad.

So, every 6 months it's p.e.t. scans, ct scans, organ funtion testing..

But, so far so good!

When my son was born he had quite a few things wrong with him. To start we didnt make it to the hospital. My wife decided to squirt him out on the ride there. Just 2 miles from the hospital! Once we got there and detached from momma, we didnt see him for 2 hours! Apparently he came into this world so quickly because his red blood cell count was off the charts. His little lungs could not properly oxygenate the blood so he was basically sufficating. To complicate that his already stressed lungs had pulmonary hypertension. They did a filtering of his blood to remove almost half of his red cells to get to a normal level. He could not maintan body temperature either. Once they got him stable, they also told us he had down syndrome. He spent the first 17 days in NICU.

It's just amazing the medical science we have now! Just look him now! Never would know just how rough his journey was into this world.

Not trying to one up anyone on family tragedies. Just proof that with enough support and the right care, good things happen.

Thanks bud. I'm not giving in to it in any way whatsoever. I'm healthy otherwise and they say that's a plus fighting this. Just gotta stop dipping is main priority,which like I said earlier is going good. I've slowed it down to the point its making me feel kinda weird when I do it,so its already getting out of my system.
