I worked a lot today and can no longer concentrate on the paper work. I need to sleep.
I actually got sun burnt today. I usually don't even think about it because I'm only outside for like 30 minutes at a time for maybe up to two hours tops. Today I was inspecting for almost 10 hours though. I need to drink more water.
Saw more than one Praying Mantis though, so that was a plus.
Yep.
Least half as many more than one.

I 75% don't know what to make of this ad.

One was eating a small spider.
Hauled azz before I could get phone into action.

Van, which is fitting.
Somebody is really conflicted.Quote:

Why Las Animas?
I was just there for work.
I worked that part out already.Quote:

Clouds!

Wind picked this water tank out of the back of the truck and dropped it onto the ground.

Have you ever seen an entire train in profile at once? I had the opportunity to get that view the other day, and it was pretty striking. I wish I had pulled over and had a great camera to get the shot. I'm not talking about a short train, I mean something like this below, but straight, where you can see the entirety of the train. If you ever get the chance, it's kind of striking. This image is the closest I can even find on line. I feel like there are some famous paintings of the scene I'm describing, but I can't find them. Anyway, I just came over a small hill and everything else was flat and this train was off in the distance. Very cool.

Very pretty shot, Irving.
I've seen long trains next to the highways here in Colorado. But that is a pretty shot, obv.

Best I can tell (from what I can remember) is that it would have been heading East on Hwy 94 looking down onto the Union Pacific railroad track that goes from Denver to Salina and the tracks cross the highway around Aroya. I figure I was about 2-5 miles away.
Thanks, I just stole that from the internet trying to find a picture, or even a painting, showing what I'm describing. It's just striking to see ALL of something at least a mile long, all at once, traveling across the horizon in front of you.Quote:

The other thing was the brake line stuff just wasn't working out for more than one reason. Using the old right side steel and flex section, and buying a new F series feed block line, and fabbing a short steel section plus the flex for the left side should all come together and be okay. The front diff never made it today, hopefully tomorrow...or it wont be til next week. That would suck but there's always finishing up some wiring that I put off cause it sucks to do...ha.
I think those big trains are pretty cool.
More than once I was the first guy at the gate at Bromley and Barr Lake....watching a 100 car coal train going by at 70 mph. That kind of mass at speeds like that is impressive.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
Oh, hey OBC. Hope you get the threads worked out.
I sit @ that gate more often than I'd like.
Irving?
Hello....Sir, Ma'am.
Also, there's Cake in the word association thread if anyone cares to indulge.

I like it fancy,....like the ketchup.
What the fuck kind of bitch ass Taco Bell is closed at 10:30 pm? The Pueblo kind, that's what kind!
Well....they probably had a limited "menu" as well.
Village Inn or Denny's perhaps?
Nope, cold, gas station Italian sub that expires next month and looks like the meat is tuna fish.
Wow, even the one in Chimayo NM is open later than that.
