[krandall]

Hey Rick...I'm an hour and a half east of Chi-Town and I'm going...CAN'T WAIT.......

Still waitin' for Tedd to turn on the hour-meter..
What are the weather guessers forecasting????

 

[rmunday]

I'm still hoping for rain the weekend of the 9th

We have a family reunion the 9th and 10th I'm trying to weasle my way out of.

 

[thoffman]

Rick, Never say never. It ain't the 9th yet!

 

[kduffy]

Rick,

Im out here by northwest of Chicago. McHenry County Area, I will be heading out to PD.

 

[digger]

Rob,
There always is. Procrastination and seeing what the weather will bring ya know, grin
Right now the extended outlook is for lows to mid 60's and dry.

 

[rdehli]

Planning on bringing 3 friends with me their bringing 3 cubs and 2 deeres at least to plow day....Can't wait !

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[wheinsohn]

Well, I might be one of those last minute people. My wife starts a new job tomorrow so I may be going after all. I will know more early next week and get info in. I will be bringing 2 cubs and another driver if I can make it happen. The 149 needs it's rebuild broke in some more. I don't think the few hours at Steve's last fall did the job.

 

[sblunier]

Wes,

I plan on breaking in a Magnum 18 next weekend!!!!!

782 shed it's winter clothes tonight and is ready for action......

 

[wcompton]

Steve-
I still haven't taken the 169 out of "winter trim" yet. Between now and PD I've got lots of dirt moving to do too. It's amazing how many odd jobs pop up when folks find out what attachments I have available.

I've got someone trying to talk her way into going to Plow Day with me too, I'm making the trip "solo" at least for the first 20 miles, then I'll probably meet up with part of the crew from WI once I hit US18.

 

[rdehli]

Wyatt What time are you leaving ...we could have a {CONVOY} headed to plow day...we'd have to put the John D^^%#! last of course

 

[kduffy]

Well, im ready for plow day, got the new rear shoes, and some weight mounted on the 125 and the plow all ready. The Original is just about there, a few last things to do.

And with that said.. IS IT PLOW DAY YET!!!

 

[digger]

Kevin D,
Good grief man, you think that little guy is gonna pull that monster plow? Looks like a 12 from here!!!!

 

[kduffy]

Charlie,

Yea, it is a 12. I've dropped it a couple of times and it left a good furrow, about 6-7 inches deep, but plow day will be the ultimate test. I have to get it up on blocks in the garage and do my final setting.

 

[rdehli]

Charlie are you guys still in need of some door prizes for pd 9? If so let me know thanks Rob

 

[digger]

Rob,
You have to ask!
Not only YES but HELL YES!
How's that

 

[sblunier]

Charlie,

I picked up some tools last night to throw on the door prize pile......
