checking out a loader

Here is a picture Deb took of me checking out this cute little loader. We stopped at A.I.S Construction Equipment in Lansing , Mi. and checked out the lot . They have plenty of machinery !! I thought this would be fun to have to play with in the snow . When I got home I tried finding it on their list of loaders for sale. But it was not listed. I may call them this week to see what they would want for it. The picture below was also from our weekend trip. We woke up this morning to some fresh snowfall. The ground was white again and the weatherman is saying 2 to 4 inches of snow for us today and tonight.

Laptop at the motel in Lansing, Mi.

Laptop at the motel in Lansing, Mi.

Here is a picture Deb took of me at our motel as I was changing my webpage for the first time away from home and not being at Nicoles to help me. The laptop worked great !! Now when we travel we should be able to take pictures each day and post them the same day to share with everyone. I never was very good at typing , but over the last few years of answering so many daily E-mails, Deb said I type pretty fast. MICHIGAN RUBBER TIRED DOZER- The end of this week I will post the pics of the completed model. LeTourneau 1800 loader - Next Mon. I will cut out the first parts for the frame. It will be a lot smaller than the first LeTourneau L-2350 . It will be great fun to build another LeTourneau Machine. I have E-mailed a couple people who work at the Longview , Texas Plant for a couple years. That makes it very cool. Although there is strict rules on sharing info from the plant, I am able to build most machines just from pictures I find of them in books and on-line.
