Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Are they giving you a helper, at least?? :barnie
I will know more tomorrow. The main guy I gave plans to knows what he's doing. I'm really hoping for lots of parent volunteers (although sometimes that's more work...) I've just got to keep thinking this is a good thing and not let irritation get the best of me.
 
btw. I finally turned Monroe off after he began trying to capitalize every word in my sentences a if they were titles of great literature. All future mistakes are my own.
:lau

Howdy..... Just checking in.:confused:

I went on a rant and erased it..... Figured I would save you all....... Anyway stay warm.
Pond is the perfect place to rant. . lay it on us anytime friend:highfive:
 
I ran into a ditch with a big passenger van in Canada. After that we moved to FL!
I've been in the ditch ( or substitute the word snowbank) so many times in my life I couldn't even count. Just part of living in big snow country. Although I'm in the ditch a lot less these years. ... Chalk it up to age and experience.......
 
Be careful out there, fella. Be sure to keep all your parts warm. :D
I know the secret of staying warm in the cold . Just get nekked and rub up against someone till hot .:D

The only question is how much money will this cost me. :lau
Are we talking a tow or a pro :idunno

Yep..... LOL... but Jeep was a cool guy... I went camping with her once... Camp grounds had ten by ten corrals with chain gates. The next morning she dropped the lower chain to go in to get his buckets and OUT Jeep wen... Just folded them ears and Zipped out and off he sauntered at a fast clip.... untill people tried to catch him... Every time he changed direction you sould see those ears sighting out his next direction.... and like a deer he would be off just keeping out of reach.

Mule just went back to her truck got his breakfast... and Zoom he was presnt and accounted for. ... That night after the poker ride she was in full regalia.... A reporter was there with camera man and all... "I see you ride a mule" Jeep was standing in the back... "YEp" mule said" This morning I had the loosest ass in camp..." The reporter just about died... Cameraman was shaking with laughter.... "Reporter said..." I guess we know what we are going to show at the Cristmas Party...."

Omg... Mule was a hoot... Her name was Marie But shed tell people I hate that name because I aint no virgin..."

deb
Yep figured her for a meat eater .;)

No good deed goes unpunished!
 
I wound up so stuck in the ditch last year that the heavy duty tow truck with stabilizing booms etc. could NOT get me out. I had to pay a second time for a back hoe. The back hoe had to work so hard to yank me out that it broke 2 burly chains as well as the back hitch on my plow truck.

But NO! I did not get stuck today. Hurrah. :wee

It was funny though...asked the 19 year old to move the 2 cars so that I could plow our parking area. Wow! :eek: Child is worse than me! :lau :gig

With the stick shift car he was jerky and stripping gears and revving and stalling. I tried to just sit and wait...let him be.... let him learn and figure it out..

But I finally couldn't take it any more, so got out of the plow truck and went to ask him if he wanted any pointers.

I said.... uh.... looking at the pulled up emergency brake... have you been driving it with the brake on? Or did you just now pull it up when you got out of the car to talk to me?

poor kid...yep... trying to drive with the brake full on.
Been there done that......:lau
Worst stuck I think I've ever been required the tow truck to chain the front of his truck to a tree........ Although once I had a old Dodge Power Wagon that I parked in a hill in fourth gear and it rolled right down into kidney pond.
Now this isn't just a regular pond it was a peet moss bog...... Truck went clear up to the hood in peet moss........ What a mess...... Still ran when we got her out. Although we had to pull start her..... Guess I'm lucky back then I never knew about hydraulic locking a motor......
 
I've been in the ditch ( or substitute the word snowbank) so many times in my life I couldn't even count. Just part of living in big snow country. Although I'm in the ditch a lot less these years. ... Chalk it up to age and experience.......
And maybe having enough sense to stay home when it is really nasty?

Cold here, too, but no snow to speak of. I hope whatever sent you on a rant gets resolved. Have a good weekend!
