Seem a guy do that once with a Case IH combine. Brand new. It started raining while he was harvesting, so he parked it. Never came back for it. It rained all week and the creek started coming up, we called him multiple times because he’d locked it or we’d just moved it for him. Water came up, ground got soft. Sinkhole happened right under it, sinking it up to the cab. Took two big *** cranes to yank it out, 4 months later

I still have my key ring with CAT, Case, Deere, keys for such emergencies. Those darn tractor makers are getting all fancy now with keypad ignitions. Damm the luck :rofl:
 
Spinach story related to Rock farm story. We are harvesting spinach and water table comes up so our Pixall is stuck. A Pixall is like a combine for corn or beans or spinach. Water is up to mid axle, you cannot attach cable to header you have to attach at frame as we are pulling it out with a D8 up on high ground. My Amigos are at a loss. Looks like we retrieve it come spring. I explain to my guy I would grab cable get a big breathe of air and burrow under the settling machine under water and mud and then attach the cable. When done I would click my heels together as a sign for him and my guys to pull me out. It worked and they still say pinchee gringo is loco. When they told the story to my wife she was very not happy with me or my right hand. Mas Tequila!
 
As hot as Natalie Woods was .. I think little sister Lana was hotter

Good Morning!!
 
Morning Ray
Looks like instant coffee...yuck!!
Remember those C rats and MRE mixed the coffee, coco, creamer and sugar together to make a cup of muck...haha!!
 
We used to fight over it in the desert! Then a case of starbucks grinds just showed up in the monthly mail and a French press. Used to have a few water bottles we painted black, just about boiled the water in a few minutes. Desert ingenuity there! Ever make water bottle bombs with the heater packs? They were funny as hell in the latrine trench!
 
Another cup and have to go to the burg before it gets to hot for the truck to get a few tables. Then a crapload of stuff to do around the house today! Then a full day of UBER tomorrow!:mob::mob::mob:

I think I'm heading out to the garage do some cleaning on the Barracuda, car show this weekend. I just remembered I haven't put the carb tag on the Carter. Need to do that. Two weeks from today and you'll be full blast at Carlisle.

Well sounds like you'll have some help there a day or two before the show. They can help get you loaded and on the road.
We'll be there Monday, with some site seeing Tuesday. Looking forward to it!!
 
just don't count on anyone but myself so I plan that to be sure. I might need another truck just not sure yet. I want to at least have the bed cover with me to be safe in case of rain for some of the scopes etc. Just wont know till loaded up. Really don't want to bring the trailer because of space room, sucked last year and it is loaded with scrap right now also.
