The F-350 was more of a project than advertised.
Intake leak
No oil dipstick so assume antifreeze in oil pan
Bad tie rod end the long one that runs big money or gets turned and threaded on a large to enable a short one to be used.
Rust was not horrible but more than would be expected when 46k was advertised.

Some gal bought it while we were there. Wanted to haul some stuff and flip it. I thought this trucks probably gonna flip you!

No hurry.

What town are you closest to? We should grab a cup of coffee or a beer sometime when I’m headed to the cities.
Keep me in mind. Am between Grandy and Cambridge. Used be about 1/2 way but Cambridge is creeping in on me.

Maybe we could grab BBQ in North Branch sometime?
 
Turkey is OK, but I had Venison Backstrap (rare) for dinner tonight … now that is REAL FOOD!!!

Grilled of course … but I cheated and used the propane gas grill … it taste a little better when I do it upstate over Black Cherry … but the wife prefers the gas!

It is Very Good either way, and this year I have two sets of backstrap to consume!!!

Turkey is MUCH better smoked. You will never think of it the same again.

Sounds fantastic! I'll be right over ;)
 
Bingo!

Dressing is made outside the turkey in a pan or dish and STUFFING is STUFFED in the turkey.

Same thing. Different name. Thats English language for ya[emoji38]

I thought dressing was the stuff you put on the green stuff, and stuffing was the nasty stuff inside the dry bird :baba:.
The best turkey I've made I pulled and mixed with a ton of BBQ sauce, everyone was quite pleased :sweet:. The other way I liked it was deep-fried, very moist :rock:.

Nice loads of locusts:happy:.
 
Buddy of mine pointed me to a pair of elm that were dropped today. Timing wasn't great as it was after lunch when I got the call and it is suppose to snow a lot...maybe...tonight. Had to get it done. Phone call later another buddy of mine was on the way. Three dump loads later and it was gone.

That was a nice scrounge, and you'll be able to split it this winter, which makes it a little better than summer(maybe) lol.

It'll go right to the boiler wood pile. Big stuff will get opened up but thats the extent of it ;)

Went to look at this free ash tree i found on marketplace. One of the biggest i have seen. I didn't think it looked that big in the pic. I didn't get a chance to cut any because I got another market place call for a free cord already cut/split. Guy said come now !!. Here is the ash tree.
