What did you do today?

[adsm08 4,855]

For not being at work today I have been pretty busy.

 

Ran 880 lbs of mostly sheet metal across the scale, ran to a friend's house and cut down a dead tree, and hauled half of it away. It was bigger than I remembered and I didn't take the right stuff, so I ran out of fuel and the only chain I had went dull. Not the end of the world as the trailer was pretty well full on this run anyway and I should make a second trip just because of weight.

 

Then I came home and did some brakes.

My brother in law worked for Goodyear.  Decades ago, he got the assignment to run the schedule for rides when it was doing publicity in Akron.  One of the dignitaries did not show up for their ride so he and my sister sat in on that ride.  It was one of the longer scheduled rides that day.

 

This was long enough ago that the paint job was silver with the Goodyear script in blue.
