    Took that load over last night then slept on the floor at the empty Birnie house and spent most of the evening reading a book on William Durant. Went over to meet up with the chap who supposedly had a yard-full of old vehicles and tractors all he was willing to let go was an 60's Chevy half ton without an engine. I was so disgusted I never even bothered to make an offer.

    The grain truck a late 50's International with a 6 cylinder which has sat under cover for the past 17 years the tires were all flat and rotted so badly they could not possibly hold air, I cant load a truck this large - towing is my only option. I figured its not worth the effort.

    So I left empty handed, came home and had a nap then went out to pick up this pair, got stopped by the R.C.M.P. half mile from home. All he did was ask if the load was secure, did I own the truck and have my D.L. with me. He was very civil through out.

    Todays catch.
