randomness...

Hey guys,
  Not much new here today, Andrew and Mom went up to Bismarck for some committe hearings of bills going through the legislature, Cora's babysitting, Dad's feeding cows, and I'm doing my school... :/

  Mom, Cora and a freind are going to go to a self defense class in Bismarck tonight, and throug Sunday I think.  They claim some pretty impressive moves, so we'll have a nice rough'n'tumble match afterwards. :P (just kiddin)

  Andrew got his pickup back from the body shop the other day, looks just fine again. :)  I just realized that at this stage, I just start randomly rambling and saying stuff just for a filler, lol.  I guess I'm not a writer...

  Anyway, kind of looking forward to spring and farming again.  I kind of get bored over the winter... :/  Well, I'll talk to you all later, Jacob B.

It's snowing!

Hey guys,
  Not a whole lot going on here today, just sitting inside avoiding the snowstorm outside, doing school, and goofing off at the same time. :P  Mom is with a client at the moment, so she told me to work on school... *sigh*

  Yesterday, I was home alone most of the day, Mom and Andrew went up to Bismarck, Andrew got his RAM back from the body shop (looks good as new now:)), Cora went babysitting, and Dad went to haul corn for a guy...

  I'm still stumped with my snowmobile, but I'm going to order a couple of exhaust gaskets today, and then put it all back together and try to trace the problem back from there.  If you guys have any idea why it wouldn't idle or start right let me know, lol.

  When I get it back together, I'm going to pull a compression test.  Andrew said that that side was a little low before, so that would make it not run on the one side at idle...  Anyway, I'll talk to you all later, Jacob B.

Update

Hey guys,
  Not a whole lot new here, just the normal farm life during winter...  Our family has been battling a cold for a while now, and it's getting quite annoying, but most of us are still feeling good enough to work like normal, with just a annoying cough...

  I've gotten my snowmobile back together now, and took it for a little ride once, but it doesn't want to start or idle right.  It appears to only run on 1 cylinder at idle until you run it up to about 2000 RPM when it runs fine.

  Yeah, us guys are all confused on that one. :(  Andrew's been keeping busy with another pickup he got recently, Cora's been babysitting a lot, Dad's been trucking grain pretty regular now, and Mom's still got her clients...

  Other then all that, we haven't done a whole lot lately, just been keeping busy in the shop, playing ping pong and working some of the time... :P  Anyway, it's time for me to go, so I'll TTYL, Jacob B. :)
