Hooked onto the trailer and went to Buggins this morning
after a grand tour of the ranch he filled the trailer up with bags of ...ah.....goodies!

Was good to see all of his new toys :wink:

How big of a trailer did you pull? I'm assuming with the KJ?

5 X 8 with two foot sides (running a lift of course) on 265-70-16s :wink:

I can pile more wood in it than you can haul in a standard 8 foot pickup bed.
Built it back in the early 90s
Also have a 6 X 10 enclosed as well sitting down home in the garage
and then there's the 4X8 old UHaul enclosed that's sitting back in the woods I should bring up for Buggin to rebuild :wink:

before the last paint job, just installed the 265-70s on the old style white spokes

This is so backwards though... I already have keys LOL

4 of them actually. Still need new doors. Changed out those locks I said I was gonna change. Realtor told me to.

Guess I can start moving crap in LOL.

I rock. Moving stuff in BEFORE closing. Calling DTE Energy tomorrow. Don't need to call the water company (DWSD), it's not in anyone's name, just "RESIDENT".

The house totally failed inspection but I knew that was gonna happen. Buncha random crap. Nothing HUGE. He said structurally, it's great. Maybe you guys know what some of this stuff means.

[EXT. S5] Repair cracks and open joints: PORCH WALLS, CHIMNEY, DWELLING WALLS (FRONT, SIDE, REAR)

INSTALL VENTILATION TO DOOR AT FURNACE ROOM

INSTALL MECHANICAL VENTILATION TO WATER CLOSET ROOM AT BASEMENT

There's some other stuff...

Not part of the inspection, but...

Need 200A service and new breaker panel. Yes they have fuses on standby downstairs LOL. I have 6 months to fix the house to code.

I also got a much more in depth look at the place. Whoever decided to drywall half the basement sucks as a drywaller. Must fix.

Wow a very true friend! Mention something but only once and bang, it's done! :pepper:

Busy in the garage this morning when I hear a familiar rumble, to my amazement I see a red sleigh powered by none other than the Black Beauty! Well it's Mr. Mudd backing on in :shock:

Load it up son! Packed that baby with 10,000,000 bags of leaves headed for Swanton with that sweet smell for the fire :pepper:

THANK YOU TOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I enjoyed showing ya my new toys and like I said, your more than welcome to them any time! I can even make ya a key for the lock to the garage so ya can play when I am not here! By the way, the neighbors already know ya.................."oh yeah, that guy with the bad ars Jeep!", yeppers fellow neighbors that my bud, don't mess with him :twisted:

! By the way, had a neighbor ask shortly after ya left, "something looked a bit different on his today from when I saw it last weekend". :ROTFL:

Nope I let them know they saw my lil bro #2 last weekend :ROTFL:

Ahhhhhhhhh the oh so familiar smell of stain! I LOVE it! Its's awesome how some smells just bring back some awesome memories and take ya down that warm and fuzzy lane of great memories regardless of time gone by. Just got done doing the final sanding, pre stain conditioner and the first coat of stain for the door and trim for around the door :pepper:

Going to get that banged out and then tackle the baseboards I have to make, sand then stain. LOVE it! :pepper:

Those are the cracks and open joints in the brick of course, point and tuck work needed.I still have my old brick tools somewhere I think. NOW the big issue there is the chimney right now, if the vent from the furnace goes into the chimney you could be getting fumes into the house

INSTALL VENTILATION TO DOOR AT FURNACE ROOM
You could take that door and install a vent in the door itself, there are codes to what size you'll need to make it pass

INSTALL MECHANICAL VENTILATION TO WATER CLOSET ROOM AT BASEMENT
Same thing as furnace door, both need air to work proper and a solid door starves the systems

There's some other stuff...

Like mentioned before contact the electrical company after you have the new box etc in, they can come and install the new meter and everything from the street. In Ohio you have to furnish wire from the meter to the box so have it as well ( or at least thats the way it was )

I also got a much more in depth look at the place. Whoever decided to drywall half the basement sucks as a drywaller. Must fix.
