      ..with wings.

      this was still alive, I gently killed it with a kitchen cleaner.
      Again, it was a turn-my-back-for-a-second and return to a WTF?! ...
      my subaru is notorious for that.

      the bee is called a bald faced hornet, found in the usa and southern canada.
      mostly the southeast usa.

          • Curious $225-250/ton here for pelllets.
            Your area?
            I use them to help the fire come back quicker when it is down to a few marbles of coals

            • Paid $199.50 ton this past weekend at TSC, and only had to haul them 2.5 miles. I could have went 50 miles one way and paid $170 ton in Delaware, just not wild about that much time on the road, plus fuel.

                  vivid shot here.

                  pondering the cost of all three..and the life costs.
                  the 1996 strangely started off on the high side.
                  $21000, 20 years ago.

                  about $250k for the trucks in photo.

                  I'll keep my ebay mig welder handy.

                      • Spotted this in my backyard a couple of weeks ago.


                        We have all seen rainbows.

                        When was the last time you saw a Moon-Bow?

                        Look closely, its to the left in that bright spot a couple of inches from the moon.

                          a secret glimpse of where advantech comes from.
                          interesting to watch.. lots of robotic.
                          even the cardboard on the side of the bundles is a big robot arm.

                          my first time here was in 1989. The chunky bundles on the leaf spring trailer and 81 cabover dropping 3 gears in simple hills. the smell was of pneumonia, wood flem creates it. Truly a tough guy place. Lots of long haired people still in the labor realm.

                          The piles got neater and neater, tighter and tighter. It thn became an invention. World renowned. It was not all success in the beginning. the blue painted edges of particle/chip board decaying within months, not even worth mobile home skirting or a dog house.

                          I am glad to see all this time and time again, going on 30 years. If I pulled in as a driver, someone would say "this was long overdue". Now the boys starting out are young enough to be my sons and children.

                          Imagine staying in one job that long? Truly blessed.

                                the 387 is nice, but it has gotten smarter since then.
                                this is an unusual rig.

                                my dad and I stopped to look at a 2016, I have a habit of popping hood and going for the engine stamp on the block.
                                I saw the red of a cummins, knew it was more paccar than anything...

                                ..and 550hp unleashed. we both paused for a minute thinking the anteater had a mistake written.
                                it really wasn't. the salesman was just as excited as we were.
                                he bought it.
                                if you should look through years prior, even the long wheelbase versions were limited to less than 500hp.
                                this 2005 must be a wimp... but there is a strong future.
