Watching it now Claude. So far only one confirmed funnel sighting but it's still east of us moving west. More worried about the stuff headed toward Pell City where the daughter and grandson are. I've got to agree with Bob, nice metal work but.......

Luck!

Eric, looks like we're going to be OK. Just talked to daughter, one more headed her way. It's going to be close. Calhoun and Cleburn counties are the ones catching it right now. No conformations yet but the TVI is at 10 and so far this system has been accurate at predicting tornadoes once it hits 5. There's also a large hail shaft in that storm, 1" plus, not good.

Josh, good luck!

Chaikwa, nice project you have going. Looks like you do some good work! I have to agree with TimeshareBob, you really aren't a good maid...you're alot better at being a Janitor though.

T-rad, be safe in the storms.

Evening to the rest of DTR. Startin to snow heavy now. Not much going on tonight, i've started refinishing a used shotgun stock and fore grip. I got it stripped and started sanding it now.

that sucks tho when it comes time to replace a truck. your stuck with a bunch of options you dont want. Ford has all those steps so you can reach the bed because they have been slowly making the bed deeper (a better number than someone else)
Chevy has all the electronics to monitor how hard your fart and adjust the climant control.
Now Dodge has changed the bed on their trucks so you got a tool box to collect water on each side of the bed.

He's going to be running the mill. You need somebody that can do arithmetic or you won't make any money. (and we know who the smart one isn't)

You got it Fronty! Jake likes to lounge in the seat and it already has a cup holder. And it will always be near the mill because that's what's gonna load and turn the logs!

That was a cheap shot!

Good write-up about an accident in Mississippi that killed a couple of horses, one of which used to be mine; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2186047/posts
