June 27, 2012

View of the day-Al getting the "creeper" lined up to give the Dodge a much needed oil change.

We got a lot of stuff accomplished today and we didn't even have to leave town.  We did take the Dodge for a short road trip out to one of the fields to see how close the wheat was getting.  It will be a few days yet.



Al looked after getting the combine and trucks serviced and ready to go...for when the wheat is fit...and Marilyn spent the day working on the shop trailer.

We got the oil tub mounted back on the hitch then tackled getting the new pegboard in just the right place so we could start unloading the  plastic tubs full of tools.  With the pressure washer and the compressor out of the trailer, there was lots of room to get organized.  We decided we wouldn't mount the compressor permanently in this trailer, just in case we want to use it when we can't get the shop close enough to what we are working on.  Of course, this meant coming up with a way to mount the hose reel so it would be portable, yet somewhat solid for winding and unwinding.


The weather was beautiful, it topped out around 87ยบ and there was just enough wind to keep us cool...a far cry from what Oklahoma and Kansas are going through these days.

Tomorrow the shop trailer get finished...
