Good Morning Everyone , We've got 16 above zero currently with a high around 36 above zero with a 6 mph wind so yes we're done with the sub zero temps for awhile , but we are expecting more snow within a week or so just to keep us humble . The folks who have skid steers and front end loaders...

I've got a 8" pulley that I can hook to my elevator hook to lift heavy loads like that , it also helps to get as close as possible to the well casing for a straight up pull on the pipe . Running the cable through the pulley made my life much easier ! My service rig has 3 forward and reverse...

Close enough for government work ha ha Just think I didn't add the part about the feed bunks that were between the two pens of cows that I was feeding I'd walk to the center of each one with a bale of hay held to balance me out as I walked down quite 2" x 6" painted pine board that was covered...

I hear you Cuebuddy , I worked on water wells and windmills for 30 year's and still have the service rig just in case a friend needs a water well bailed out or a submersible pump replaced . The constant in businesses like this is the worse the weather the more likely you will get called out to...

Rick , I understand how you must feel about winter . Here it's a typical Montana winter similar to what we'd get back in the 1960's and 70's a lot of snow and wind for wild drifting conditions . I'd suggest tire chains for your tractor the county road dept finally got smart and chained up the...

We've warmed up to a balmy 1 above zero but may reach 15 above at some point in time . Starting Thursday we may get into the mid 30's or into the mid 40's with scattered snow flurries , yes we need the moisture to soak into the ground slowly . Fort Peck Lake is more than 25' from being at full...

Once again we've got -12 below zero but feels more like -30 below zero with a breeze out of the SE at 9 mph and the humidity is 78 % under clear starry early morning skies for another great day in Montana with a chance for a high temp around 17 above .

It's warmed up to - 18 below zero here in the Snow Hole in Central Montana , we've had as low as -38 below zero within the last week or so . The snow birms along most of the roads are close to 6' - 8' tall with 2'+ worth of snow on the flat until it drifts some of our snow drifts were 4' with...

When I was practicing or playing pool on a very regular basis I'd use a piece of chalk that for whatever reason I liked how it covered the tip , generally it was literally flat from me chalking up with the corners . One night one of the local players challenged me to play a race to 6 games but I...

You are correct Gold Crown , people have fanny packs ha ha after a certain age of course , I've even got one I use it when i go big game hunting ha ha

During one of our pool tournaments the manager for the company who owns the bar boxes was walking around handing out cubes of chalk to some of us , I guess it may of been for his better customers ? Since I don't play as much pool as I once have a cube of Masters lasts quite some time over a...

Case in point is Annie Duke she did very well as a professional poker player who started playing in Montana .

I think it would be a good challenge for many people with long cut shots & bank shots , no jump cues allowed ha ha With the object balls placed on the diamonds around the table 1 object ball at a time of course . Then has a target zone to stop the cue ball in after the shot or close to it .

Don't worry I got the joke , I've been told I type in a dry sense of humor at times ha ha .

Forgive me , I've never seen traction socks before ha ha I'll show my age all I know about are tire chains and tarp straps to keep them tight . With either so small diameter rope or wire to tie up the inside extra chain links .

Our elevation is around 4,000' here and one of last snow storms dumped close to 3' of snow here , we've got drifts close to 5' in the yard and my snowmobile is buried under a bit more snow than that . In 2017 before the end of December we had received more than 180" of measurable snow...

At some one who is basically stuck ha ha , staying in a lower gear and not getting to crazy with the throttle has worked very well for me . Please show me the error of my ways . Ha ha

Our " City Pool League " came to the end they were going to have a end of the year team tournament but no one has heard anything about that as of yet . The Seniors Pool League is still going but we took today off so we can spend the day / evening with our sweetheart . Happy Valentine's Day !
