Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Non-Petro Discussions Non-petro Discussion and Showcase Thursday, for those who stayed home

Good morning everyone or just a couple of you!

70°s, rain and more rain. Frogs are happy but I think they are the only ones.

CTO kicks off today so I imagine that most of the oldgasers are there leaving some of us back home wishing we could be there. Couldn't go because of doctors appointment. Bad planning on my part.

Today because of the weather I'll be tinkering in the shop on some stuff. I'm about tinkered out in the shop and can't wait to be outside agin.

Have a great day everyone be comfy and safe.

Morning Les, I got the rain I was hoping for its just pouring,

Every thing was getting dusty dry around here.

I have no where I have to be this morning,thats a change. Funny when I find a day like this I feel like I'm screwing off.

Maybe we can look forward to some show pics soon for those of us that's not making the trip to the show.

Have a great day all!!

Morning all. Just got off the phone with my internet provider going through a bunch of screens and changing a number in one of them. I had no service this morning and thought it might be my friendly barn owl again that uses the antenna for his lookout at night but guess it was something in the equipment settings got out of whack. After about fifteen minutes on the phone with a tech it's back up again. Our service leaves a lot to be desired but it's all we have so I live with it. One of the beauties of living in the country I guess. We had a nice evening shower yesterday and got about 1/4" in the gauge. The forecast is for more showers rolling through today and tomorrow but nothing widespread like you have been getting up there Les.We could use a lot more moisture but I don't mind not mowing as often when it's dry like this. Reworking a small project for church this morning and then back to the boat and a few other things in the shop today. Have a great day all.....GB

CTO is a great show. I'm not able to be there this year. If you get to go, hope you have a great time.

Cooler today with a sprinkle. More rain predicted. We need it.

Have a great Thursday out there in Oldgasland

Afternoon all! Some friends from Texas made the journey to North Dakota on Tuesday, and we will be doing some daily fishing with them. We were out yesterday and caught a bunch of Northern Pike (which we throw back) and only 3 Walleyes (the ones we were after)! It was pretty hot with no breeze, so we quit early last night and got some good sleep. Today is hot again, so the Warden took them out to the local casino for some entertainment, and we will probably hit the lake behind the house for some late afternoon fishing. It seems to cool off pretty fast after 5 pm.
I finally got back after my Wayne 805, after taking almost a year off on it. The trip to Alaska last summer, kind of put a lot of things on hold, and that pump was one of them! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now and it shouldn't take long to finish her up. I will post pictures of it when I am done. Its really turning out nice!
Have a great day on me!!--KEVIN

Just working in the cooler temps today, what a relief from this past week. Had two people call me on Gas Cart tires with in Two minutes of each other, what are the chances?? Big time guys are closer to that CTO swap, while the rest of us are just too far away. Good stuff is back there I guess. I will just go back to work.
