Gotta give props out to Mallard, Plio and Mike Many #'s
Last night I blew out the leaf springs on my boat trailer with the 5000lb pig loaded.... all of a sudden tires are rubbing and the fender with boat are sitting down on the tires.....
11:30pm and I'm down, 1/2 blocking the exit from wabamun provincial park.
within a 1/2 hour.....
Jerome and Michelle (mallard & bruiser) are there to keep an eye on the truck/trailer while I go get supplies.
Mike many #'s shows up with a 4 ton jack and starts jacking...
Plio arrives with beer...
I get back with 4x4's and tow straps....
by 12:30 the trailer is mobile again and on it's way back down to the park so I can dump it back into the water today and get the trailer fixed...
Without sounding all sappy and chit I gotta say, when you can count on peeps to show up at midnight on a saturday night to help piece a trailer back together on the side of the highway.... those are the type of friends everyone should be lucky enough to have...
Thanks guys..... case of beer & pack of smokes for all, we'll square up at the camp out....:d
Not to mention Mikes little purchase of a trailer for Fossy.....
Cheers... I'm off to launch the boat...
Sappy
...Sappy
......Sappy
.........Sappy
But it's awesome to have good friends.
