Moring All!

It's been 90+ down here with high humidity. When I go outside it feels like I'm waring hot soup, YUK! Mowing, laundry and shopping today.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would just post this here.
This is a brand new plant in Trevorton, Pa. Don't know if they are processing newly dug coal or reclaim.
Anybody familiar with this operation ?

Broke the mirror on my sons truck backing out of the garage after i changed the oil and changed his air filter, so those two tons of coal cost me 340 plus 91 dollars for a mirror, 90 in fuel and 60 bucks for the oil and filters lol. could have been worse if it were the lariat model with heated power autodim power extending mirror lol.

Been awhile since I stopped by for Coffee! When better to be on the Coal forum than a 95 degree day. LOL! Called C&T Coal for a price and he was hard pressed to give me one. He said he's never seen it like this, and he's been in business for awhile. Still cheaper than oil and an American fuel. Finally headed to pick up the Keystoker KA-6 next Saturday! Hope to post some pics then. Not sure when I'll get it installed, but at least I'll have it. Looking forward to having it in with the Peerless as backup.

I bet that cold water of the might St Lawrence feels good today.

It’s a warm one here in DE today, finally the clouds gave some cover and the kids are in the pool for the remainder of the day most likely.

I need to unload the truck so I can make a coal run, it’s still 6.25 a bag here. I loaded the truck with the intention of a dump run this am, but life happened. We have enough for a bit still.

I really planned to do yard mowing today, but decided to take a long ride on the '81 Suzuki instead. Only high 80's today but slap you down on the floor humidity. Wasn't bad as long as I was moving.

We're supposed to go to a combination back yard picnic, jam session and old home movie show thing tomorrow. It's gonna be another steam fest. Host's wife's family had partially owned and managed the local big-time dragstrip for many years. Looking forward to seeing some film of gassers and early fx cars I remember from the 60's and 70's.
