Made it on time for breakfast this morning: Went to pick up the 40 yesterday morning crossing Oklahoma from Mangum,OK to the Grove, OK area. 6 hours on interstates and turnpikes going up.Rain and thunderstorms behind me, and 30 -50 mph plus southerly winds all around me, gusts to more than 70 miles at times. Left Grove about 5pm crawling up and down hills on secondary roads with my 10 ft wide load (plenty of locals seeing me but nobody stopped me at night...lol)25-45 mph, and several surprise local detours adding another hour on the way back. Round trip about 790 miles. Pick #9 (and the kids..lol) from previous owner/seller. He got it with the land out of a probate sale of a 86 yr old farmer. It sat a while (trees in the reel)and the header jack was not used, but we finally got to jack it up from both sides inch by inch and loaded her. Radiator hose is completely chewed away, and it needs some repair on the bottom below the elevator (see pic), but I think it will run with a little TLC. When fueling on the way home, I found the little stow away (last pic)on the trailer....Wonder if "it" ate my radiator hose...??? Happy Ralph in OK.
