This getting up at O dark thirty is getting old. But at least Iβm having fun doing this. I love my job. Big boys with their big toys. And the overtime Iβm getting helps too. $$$
AJ and I are at Willows Walmart raising money for the city fireworks show. We here at VIPS do more than just patrolling and writing tickets. We support our community wherever possible. π§¨π₯π
3 bent scraper paddles put our rig down for a little while. We got them off and weβll have to take them to a machinist that can press them straight. The other crew didnβt get all the concrete chunks picked up. So Iβll be using their rig in the meantime.
Great day for a ride. Stopped and had pizza for lunch. Then hung the signs. Went off roading thru a construction site. Had refreshments at Dibble Creek. Then to Wendyβs for a burger. Then Black Bear for ice cream. 214 miles over a 9 hour day. Our route will be in comments. ποΈποΈποΈ
Nothing like a ride with your friends. Weβre going to hang our signs up on Veterans Memorial Drive at the Northern California Veterans Cemetery in Igo.
I have to make a retraction. I was tired last night when I said that I moved 5,000 yards of dirt in one day. Actually that was the total of both machines for the three days we ran. One machine on Wednesday and both machines Thursday and Friday. 1,000 yds a day for each machine.π₯±
Different office yesterday and today. Same dirty face. Running around on this old thing for 8.5 hours is like going 10 rounds with Mohammed Ali!! I moved approximately 5,000 yards of dirt each day. 34 hours in three days!! Looking like Iβll be doing this all next week too. π=$$
Tonightβs recruitment dinner is in the books. 7 young men and women (1 was a no show) are joining the armed forces. Not as many people showed up as we thought, so there was a lot of leftovers, but that will be donated to the fire department. All in all it was a great night. πΊπΈπ«‘
Itβs a beautiful day in the neighborhood. The weather cleared up enough to get a little ride in. Have a great RED Friday!! πΊπΈπ€οΈποΈπ«‘
Got the second ceremony done. Unfortunately, this is the only picture I got.. This time I was just a spectator, but got to see and visit with a lot of old friends from my old hometown. They liked my new bike. Have a great rest of your day everyone.πΊπΈποΈ
So Iβve had my eye on this beauty right here and today I pulled the trigger. 2020 Road King. Traded the old Road King for the new one. Still have the Dyna but itβs for sale. πποΈπΊπΈ
They're coming out with a birth control pill for men. Problem is getting them to take it every day. So here's how you fix it. Put it in beer! Birth Control Beer!! Tastes great, less children.
The wind is terrible today. 30 mph w gusts up to 40. Branches down, even a steel building frame that was halfway up was blown down. I was okay going with or against it. But going sideways was terrible. It was blowing me all over the road. Had to go slow. Still a good ride. π¬οΈποΈ
