Stonepicker good morning, l am assuming a I75 route back down to Florida from Michigan? What is the Date/ETA for I75 and Atlanta? Gimpy says you have the hammerdrill. I'll PM you my number

That wire mesh pallet looks like it should become part of the trailer where it sits.

Glad I got home in time to help load the heavy stuff and see Phil. That cover is nice looking on that trailer, fresh and brand new.

See you in a few weeks.

Update:
I should be leaving MI around noon on Friday. Heading down I-75 to FL.

Sitting on the porch drinking coffee this morning and looking out over the lake.

Awesome Picture Phil! What lake is that in Michigan? I grew up in Midland and we still have the summer cottage on Grandlake in Presque Isle.

Wow that cover looks like it was made for your trailer, how long is the deck 20'? Glad the mesh pallet is going to a good home and bet SWB is glad to have it out of the yard.

The mesh pallets are wicked cool Dave.

Funny, it doesn't look like it's 90 degrees in that pic.

The pallet is nice, but a little heavy. It does fit nicely on the trailer.

Here in MI, it's been in the lower 90's. Just got some rain so it cooled off a little tonight.

Those cover were made for the USMC 5 ton with the 20 foot cargo beds. The super rope is good also.

SWB is very happy that the pallet is gone.

Baw Beese Lake, Hillsdale MI. Right off of M-99.

Well Phil, if you still have my number, you can just call and I'll go change the sheets at the other lake cottage for you. I can turn on the hot water heater and you'll have some privacy except for dinner, where you'll have to put up with that mean ole woman of mine.
Joyce would love to see you again.

PM sent

Heck, if I hadn't given up sugar I'd love to have one of Joyce's pecan pies or apple.

That wire pallet would make an excellent scrap steel bin if you have something to load it when you are done. Then just have the scrap yard dump it.

But yes, it is pretty heavy to be humping around by hand. I am glad that I can mow the spot where it was sitting.

Started the trip back to Florida.

Stopped at a rest area on Highway 33 about 8 1/2 miles from I-75.

Had some bad weather just go through. Strong winds and now rain.

 

[Stonepicker1]

Update: I'm 153 miles north of Atlanta. I plan on stopping for the night now. Traffic has been a pain in the you know what.

it was even bad in TN.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Holiday weekend Phil. Too bad my house is so far off I75, I could have sent you with a key.

Phil is alive and kicking, meeting Ron at 10:30 for exchange, there is a party on i75 if anyone interested

Update on trip back:
Just past Gainesville FL.
5 hours from the house now.

Best price I've paid for Diesel in a long time. 65 miles north of the GA boarder. $2.18.9 a gallon.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Must be getting close now.
