Moving all of those crawlers from one cold environment to another.

Greg:

I think Jim is now down to his 7C wide, his wide 25 and his wide Diesel 35. I know that he has done lots of "house cleaning" in the last year or so. My guess is that they would stay with friends in MN and would not go east with him.

Dunefanatic, there,s a big, big difference in the weather between Minn. and Baltimore Md. The weather is not near as wicked down there and I,m here in NE Pa. so I see in the newspaper everyday the difference between here and there too (and Minn. as well) as they are direct south of me and my brother lives down there and has for almost 50 years now.They do get storms at times but not like we do up in NE Pa.and a little warmer weather all the time.Baltmore temp was 67 on Mon. and 65 today and to be 55 tomorrow.

Congrats Jim, and safe travel and enjoy the new job. Just watch the traffic. John

What a surprise, Jim! Betcha won't make the board meeting in Peoria this year! Congratulations! And the weather in the Baltimore area is very mild compared to Minnesota. GWH

Congratulations Jim, Hope it works out well for you. On a side note our alarms went off at 3:30 this morning for a house fire. We are just volunteer departments so it took about 10 minutes to get there. It was in the basement, apparently started in a TV set. The lady of the house said it had been making a popping noise for the last couple days. Mostly smoke damage. the TV and a couch burned and some paneling on the walls. Lots of smoke.
Jim

i think i would've stayed in mn.
.02 worth.

jim should do very well in Balt. It is a bigger city, very different building construction and dam he won't have to interviewed for the news looking like an ice cube. I hope you bring the tractors east, we need some more out here. Next year you can take a drive to NY with one.
