    November '22 Chat -- A gravy train? A gravy boat? Its ALL gravy!!!!

    Story is the last (3) bulk container ships carrying portland cement powder that docked in Bay City Mich., were allocated to Dan's Excavating. The company trying to finish up the I-69 / I-475 projects. My concrete contractor had planned to use Modern Concrete in Metamora Mich, right on M24...

    November '22 Chat -- A gravy train? A gravy boat? Its ALL gravy!!!!

    I'm 3 to 5 years out from retirement. Last house had been paid for, for quite a while. We pulled a construction loan in the fall of 2021 to build the new house and shop. Reason being we were able to lock in a rate in the fall of 21, that is lower enough where theoretically our investments should...

    Not sure if you are asking me Tom, but I'm lucky enough to have access through work. That's why I'm not sure my screens look the same as James.

    On mine I have to renew my lease every 30 days, or I get goofy error codes. I start here; Then here; Then it will usually renew my lease. There is a "days" count down in the lower right corner of the screen, when the lease renews it will show (30). I'm on a desktop now, so it's not...

    Considering towing a 5th wheel camper, what do I need to know

    Yes, I am aware. I converted my last RV with an Anderson. My son owns and still uses that RV. My current rig is out of any warranty period and honestly, I have no faith in those anyway. It's difficult to explain without standing next to the two RVs, but I would never convert my current one...

    Considering towing a 5th wheel camper, what do I need to know

    My bed is 6.5'. I run a slider, only slide it one time, towed thousands of miles. I will be converting mine to a gooseneck. I hate having the hitch taking up the whole bed of the truck. I run AirLift 5000 bags with the wireless onboard air. My fifth wheel requires different air pressure...

    Mike L has passed away.......

    Man, I'm speechless. Mike answered the a couple of my calls, when he really was not obligated to do so. Very helpful guy but never held back on telling you if you were full of crap. Rare personality in today's world. RIP Mike, Godspeed.

    What did you do to your home/shop today?

    Yeah, my issues are small potatoes compared to that. Shop at least has power now, even though the tag is red. Concrete should be in soon after I clear the planning commission.

    What did you do to your home/shop today?

    Through this process, you meet a lot of inspectors and contractors. A few of them have told me the serious growers are not on the grid anyway. They consume so much power they prefer to stay off of the grid. I guess they just line up (4) or (5) LP pigs, get a 12kw or 20kw propane genset and run...

    Pretty much what I said, they did not agree. What's that old saying? "You can't fight city hall?"

    What did you do to your home/shop today?

    They want me to prove I'm not. Michigan's Medical marijuana laws left loopholes. If you have a medical weed card, you can legally grow, but do not have prove that you consume everything that you grow. So people get cards, grow as much as they can, then sell it to the recreational dispensaries...

    What did you do to your home/shop today?

    Nice work James! Fortunately concrete hasn't been an issue here. We were well on our way to getting the floor poured, until the deal with the township ordinance. If all goes well at the planning commission meeting, we should have the floor down in early July.

    What did you do to your home/shop today?

    Actually went 40x72x16 on the barn. So far I have installed only one of these lights just to try and pass the electrical inspection. Most likely will end up with (8) of them;
