Not So Weird Load and Unforeseen Circumstances

Over at MKStover.com (in this post) I mentioned weird loads, or, more properly, 'Weird Load.'

Well, this load wasn't so weird, but it's worth mentioning again -not because of the weird factor, but because of the pain-in-the-you-know-what factor- even though you already know what the cargo was used to build.

It's poplar wood, freshly cut to order, loaded up and ready to go:



Only PC's truck decided it wasn't going anywhere (this is the pain-in-the-you-know-what factor I was talking about):


The radiator blew up - cracked beyond repair.

PC is a mechanical genius -among other types of genius. If something has to go wrong, PC is the guy you want to have around because he can fix it (or build it or whatever needs to be done).



I'm throwing this picture in here, too, because of the trailer sitting next to PC's.
See it?


'Eager Beaver' automatically qualifies anything that's hauled on that trailer as a candidate for the 'Weird Load' label.

Four Columns

Here are the pictures with all four columns:



My trusty old mini-van sits quietly in the parking lot.
I haven't been driving it a whole lot because it only gets about 18 miles (20 highway) to the gallon. At $4/gallon, that doesn't get me very far.
I'm fortunate to have a little-bitty car that gets almost 35miles/gallon, so my van only gets used when I need a truck because, although it only get 18mpg, PC's truck gets even less.








I can't wait to get the roof on this!
