Spent the day at my builder yesterday working out a few details

Nice and sunny so we talked boating outside . . . we then lowered the VHF arials to their horizontal position and then started backing the boat into his shop . . . the brake on the door released as I was backing up

the 8 ft arials became 3 foot arials before I jammed the brakes

nobody hurt and life goes on

It must be the week before Easter . . . it was 55 F yesterday and - 3 F today . . . and 3 inches of snow and its still falling uggggggh

Hey Auguste.."

w
just a note....a few years back I was pulling out of the firestation where I lived....the overhead door springs were a bit weak...the door went up and settled down enough to just clear the roof of the truck.but minus the lightbar ,antennas and the airhorns...and you think you did damage....

shortwave . . . that is hilarious

As for the fire truck, I am writing up my jopurnal . . . I will send you one of the chapters I wrote on what I did with a 1500 gallon crash truck . . . it ended costing the Canadian government about $1 million in 1972

give me about two weeks . . . remind me if I forget to send it to you

Murphy got ya.....It happens to everyone sometime or another...

A friend at work tryed to take a 2 week old panel van that [WAS] 10 foot high through a parking garage that is 8'6'' high...We'll never let him live that one down....

I backed over a small tree at camp that I had drove around for years..Tore my tailpipe off.

Were not as cold as you but we did get snow today...
