This was in more tangible assets then a college loan (which the government would have paid for mine if I would have finished it)

my parents live in an old farm house
huge brick building

back in those days, one part of the building was living quarters, the rest was life stock
the living qaurter is basicaly a 4 bedroom 2 bath house

i dont even know how large the lifestock area was (which my dad used as garage/pole barn)

when one of my sisters relationships ended she move back home

My parent parcelled off a section of the lot, including the front part of the life stock area and my sister build her own 4 bedroom home in it

The put a dividing wall in the middle so my dad only has what amounts to a 6 stall garage and my sister has about enough room for 2

My parents gifted her the land, and the building and even though i couldnt care less (shes my sister, i dont envy her one bit) my parents are the kind of people who want everything to be "fair" so they added the clause to thier will ststing im supose to get the equivalent first



True words, and I'll tell you right now, even if they were to leave me a billion dollars, I'd rather have them

And I'm in no way looking forward to this inheritance, it simply came up in conversation so I put in my 2 cents

Don't think any of you guys would be more interested in an inheritance than family.

How much snow did or will you guys get. By the way it’s snowing here and it’s not supposed to stop till tomorrow morning I’d say we’d have a foot in the bush when it’s over. People just put they’re brains in their back pocket and sit on them in the first snow fall. They’re planting the ditches with cars all over should be a bumper crop next year.

Seen a bunch of cars pulled out of the ditch with a tow truck and the first thing that happens is the front bumper or rear bumper gets bulled off the car because the tow truck driver has know idea how to get a good spot to pull from on a car in the ditch. After the plastic bumper is out of the way then the tow truck driver has a good idea how to get the car out of the ditch.
Seen more damage from getting the car out of the ditch than in the ditch.

Or a control arm
 
Aren’t there twist lock slots in the sub frame for pulling. That’s what the tow truck driver used when he pulled my son out with his G5 Pontiac. No damage done. Guess not everyone knows that

You could still do some damage with that but might be the only option.

well on these newer cars where do you hook to. Nothing else is solid enough. I mean it’s not a 69 ford 1/2 ton

Some have “transportation ” brackets. Those little covers in the bumper. German cars are good about supplying the hook for that application. They all should employ that idea.
 
Soon the whole bottom of the cars will be smoother. Aerodynamics. No rocker pinch welds etc.
 
Morning fellas and Happy Saturday.
Not much going on today.
My son stripped and boiled the head of the deer he got. It's now in his workshop along with another one.

Wonder how you pull an EV out of a ditch. As soon as the wheels turn they are creating power.
 
I'm so glad I don't live in Buffalo. Our weatherman was there yesterday and he's 6'3" or better and he was standing in the middle of the road and the snow was up to his backside
