pre don...

Had a brief sprinkle this morning that ended up going NW of here - enough rain to cause Terlingua Creek to run and shut down the TSB mine for the day.  Welded up and mounted the two spliced purlins today.  I added a chunk of 2" flat bar to the back side of each meld.  Ran a couple of errands down south then watched some nice big storms scoot all around me this afternoon.  89,101,75, .03", B

    Like the beefed up joint john. Should be a lot less chance of failure.

    Thought Don was going to be Pre Dawn here, but alas, he was not. Perhaps you will have to don your rain hat, coat and galoshes after Don dawns.

    Wonderful rain picture. Looks like postcard material.

    Well! John...
    I am here to apologize for the false hope don gave and the way in which don fizzled out...I can assure you my name sake was not as I had envisioned...But I am still proud of my name "Don" and glad don will not be used to name a storm for a long time...

    Hope you get another chance for rain soon.
