got a call from a friend this evening telling me his father had died. Another one down. Bill was telling me earlier that a guy I kinda grew up with died this past week also. after my little episode yesterday afternoon am wondering just what kind of day it was. Time or 5 there i thought i was gone but managed to keep walking and nothing inside broke or quit…

gonna finish these little projects enough to take a break and go somewhere for a few days.

got the trailer stuck and unstuck a couple of times. with the wheels under the tongue it rolls backwards as well or better than forward.

got the transport dollies in place and a log under it. now waiting for the morning to get a cross tie and or a bridge timber to put on top of the log to space up to the frame enough to get the wheels off the ground so we can pull it sideways. got dark on us tonight. had tried with a 4×4 but just too much spring there in the springs under the trailer so gonna try for more height. got to use another method of securing the log to the dollies too. got a chain on one end and a bunch of strap on the other. the strap is stronger by far and need to use it on both sides. or use steel plate or pipe.

got another idea on the connection. try just wrapping rope or strap around the log with a fixed amount of space above for the space of the frame and then a short log to hang from above. break it at first just wrap more rope.

run chain from far side where it is attached to the spring mount to the back of the north side dolly. that will keep me from pulling the log out from under the trailer. just take as much weight off as i can and pull that sucker. dozer can do it. with the added chain it is workable with setup there now. i think…

will know in the morning.

getting closer on the pch cart. still got more to do but closer. like the logo i have there now. don't know if bob will or not.
