Hitachi EX-8000 Hydraulic Hoses being attached by Gaylord Toy Maker Don Campbell.

Hitachi Tracks and hoses- Todays picture shows most of the hydraulic hoses now attached. I am holding off to finish the top hoses to see how the boom sits once it is mounted on the tracks.
You can also see in the background the track pads built and the first track stretched over the partially built track frame.
TWENTY FOUR INCH SNOWSTORM – We been watching the big snowstorm slowly heading towards Gaylord. It is supposed to wipe us out starting tonight (:>)
“This is the most wonderful time of the year” just like the song says, ha,ha. That first blizzard is very cool !! Everyone panicks and heads to the store for extra supplies. Schools are closed and businesses shut down early and it is just a magical time for about one day ha,ha. Then it gets old for most people real quick ! But not for me, I love it. I often go out after supper and hand shovel most of my driveway just because it reminds me when I was a little boy and it was so peaceful, no cars going by and the heavy snow falling on me and me eating fresh snow ha,ha. Got to be careful eating snow in the dark , ha,ha.
WALDON LIGHTS – This afternoon I got the front headlights hooked up so now all 7 lights are ready to go. I should see if I can put some Christmas lights on it, ha,ha.
Hey Deb ! What’s for Supper ?? Actually I fired up the grill and cooked us a couple Rib eye steaks , yum ! After eating beef tenderloins all summer , the rib eyes weren’t so tender, ha,ha. But they were still good.
Treadmill – Each day we get a little more used to the treadmill and hopefully in the next couple weeks Deb and I can run together at the same time on the same treadmill or maybe not ?, ha,ha.
Remember Jesus is the real reason for the Season (:>).
Have a great Tues. !!
