OK Mommy Nature, Bring it on.....!

[nailed_nailer]

Just finished unloading 65 bags of Okanagans into my basement.

This goes with the 40 or so bags of Premiers I had from last month. And the 11 bags of Okies left over from last year.

The F250 is a bit unstable with those extra 15 bags on the pallet. Not unsafe....just a bit dicey.

So nearly 3 tons stacked in the basement, the temps are turning cold and the wind has shifted to the north for the next 5 months.

I'm ready.

Jay,

I still have plenty of room on the other side of the laundry room for pellets. I should be able to fit at least another 5 tons in if I take out the 275 gal oil tank

Seriously...I don't think I can join the Pig Club yet. I'm shy of 3 tons in stock.

The hauler is a 2000 F-250 SD 4x4 shortbed 5-speed stick with a V-10. 335,000 miles. I ordered it from ford in November 1999 got it in March 2000. Been a great truck. Just rebuilt the front end in August, Ball Joints, Wheel Bearings, Tie Rods, etc. Spent two weekends on my knees on my seashell driveway. She runs great. Hope to get a few more years out of her. The body is starting to go in a few places (but who's isn't).

imacman, Thanks. Should keep me warm for about 3/4 of the winter.

Now I need to search out a deal. The basics are covered.

Jim,

For the record it is a 3/4 ton.

And......I drive after dark...avoid the chicken shacks....start at the basement and skip every other channel....stay on the back roads....and avoid the smokeys.


Cork,

Yep J&S Trucking in Berkley. $265/ton...$339/65 bag pallet. Loaded me up and got me out of there quick. Except for me talking a while that is.

My inside stash. Barefoots on bottom, Greene Gold middle, and the Rockies & Blazers and few oakies on top. I do a custom 8 bag square stack so I can get more into the space.

Greene Gold is a interesting pelelt. Its pretty dark in color, Hardwood, and burns pretty good. Only know of 1 dealer that has every carried them.

Iron stove, I guess that if you run low on pellets at the end of the season, all that cereal will have to do..... :gulp:

Thats why imacman is the treasurer. I can't add to well and I might make mistakes in my favor. ;-)

Mother nature..

Please with all due respect go "bring it on " somewhere else this year.
Europe would be fine..they need the moisture.Maybe Russia.
We in Minny love 35 and sunny...no snow..ice..Golf in November.

I hauled the pallet in My Ford F150 30 miles.

It was 50 but the front wheels didn't touch down that often.
I remember the 70's and what we carried in the F100.
I did break that 1 axle.
