just saw jp.s new truck today, we met up to exchange supplies and what a beauty that truck was! great big flat bed with dual rear wheels. sure would hate to pay the fuel bill on that thing! jp, you should post a photo or two of that new ride! by the way, i thought you said that box was full of bees! turned out to be a box full of little puppies with wings! thought they were going to start licking my hand they were so gentle  thanks for the swarm! but it was a bit larger than you said, couldnt get them all to go into the nuc box. will combine them with that hive with the drone laying queen tomorrow, i allowed the defective queen to swim in my alcohol swiming pool this afternoon before i went home so they should be ready by tomorrow for their new momma! thanks again and sweet new ride! bailey |

most often i find my greatest source of stress to be OPS ( other peoples stupidity )
It is better to keep ones mouth shut and be thought of as a fool than to open ones mouth and in so doing remove all doubt.

That is the same exact looking truck that Ray Marler had when he helped move that hive for me. Does your truck have all those neat compartments on the side for storing things?  (you see how much I know about this) Very happy for you JP and use it in good health!!!! Annette |

Man o Man Jp that is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. I like it very much. It looks like you need a bobcat to go behind it, transfer all your hives onto pallets and loose those rachet straps. You will like rope a lot better. Is this what your driving to bud's?

Ok, guys and girls, I can't take it anymore! This is not my new truck! Sorry folks! Y'all can take a joke right? Hey, its an April fool's joke! This is the run down my friends (at least I hope y'all are after this!  ) On Thursday, April 16, 11:55 am, a beautiful young lady (18) decided to turn into coming traffic and I happened to be the oncoming traffic!  Bailey and I were just having a little fun, sorry folks! My truck is going into the shop on Monday, front bumper and grill is about to fall off, so I needed a rental and this is what they came up with. I wish I could afford a nice truck like this! It is a real beauty but no Dallas I will not be coming up in this truck, sorry!! As for me, I'm ok, I believe, still too early to tell, but no broken bones. I did go to the ER to get checked out as my neck, temple and entire right arm all the way to the finger tips was tingling and numb like. I'm still sore and stiff but the doc fixed me up with pills so time will tell on this one. I feel really badly for the young lady as she was ticketed and just found out she was accepted into college. So after my truck gets fixed, unfortunately this nice new truck is going back! Can't blame a guy for dreamin' a little can ya? ...JP |

Hiya JP, sorry to hear about the unfortunate accident. Too bad about it not being your full time truck but bet it was nice to ride around in as a loaner huh? I don't blame you for daydreaming a bit! Hope your injuries clear up, sounds like you've got some nerve damage in lower neck or upper back, that's my guess for the numbness and tingling in the arm. I really hope it's not serious and clears up in no time for you. I just can't resist, here is a pick of my truck, it's a 1990 Dodge RAM350 dually 11ft. flatbed with 5.9L cummins turbo diesel with automatic trans. It's a work horse for sure and is my favorite vehicle at this time.  It's really too bad I don't have enough beehives to need the truck for them, but I'm working on that issue! Speedy recover to you and hope you get your truck out of shop soon in mint condition |

Well thanks Ray, you sure have a nice truck there. Lots of room to haul stuff. I will have this rental truck until mine is fixed, some time this week.
This truck is very wide, parking is quite a challenge. I would actually like a van for my next vehicle. I could put all my stuff in there and parking would be a lot easier.
