I don't know about you but one month of the year just disappeared andI barely even saw it.
Things are going well in the S household. Wife-ie is doing great with the schooling of Lovebug and Ladybug, Lovebug enjoys reading, Ladybug I think will be the mathematician, and I am probably runningat about 7.9 out of 8.0 cylinders. I am still trying to eliminate the rest of the pain from the surgery but things are going well. The doctor told me at the very end of last year that if I still have a lot of pain they would begin doing some testing this year to try to pin point it... he said the testing would involve Barium... Huh!!! I didn't say I had any pain, I meant there is a stain... yeah, yeah stain!
I thought in this edition of my monthly reminder I would add a couple of photos and give you a little info about what I do with No. It is really pretty simple. I am told do this... and I do it. Actuallyfor the most part I am training for the big league when I have to handle a complete silo from start to finish. My main role up until now has been coordinating with the manufacturer of the silos themselves and I am in charge of making sure the drawings are correct for all the holes that are needed in the silo, and then I send the PO to the vendor and sign my name in blood stating that this is what we really want to buy.
It is kind of weird... these silos (just the shell) can cost well over $100k each. But by the time we have the silo on site we mayhave as much as an additional $60k tied up in just freight costs alone.

This photo is a shot of us loading the first of three silos we had to get out by the end of last year.

Photo on right shows an example of some of the holes that have to be planned andcoordinated with the customer and the vendor.

Lastly this shows one of our installers working inside the silo getting some of the internal electrical work completed prior to shipping.
Hey don't be a stranger... Let me know how things are going in your worlds too.
Regards, KjS.
