    Not even out scrappin'

    Driving out to breakfast before work this morning and had to pull a U-turn.

    Mower (looks like it just needs a tune-up)
    Stainless Steel Double Sink
    Little bit of Brass
    4 tackle/tool boxes
    good spare tire for one of my trailers.

    two of the boxes ended up being full of big musky lures to boot.



    Morel? Always keep your eyes open and don't worry about messing up the wife's truck.

    Nice find I always be sure to look for scrap when I'm out doing errarns or whatever. I would suggest putting a tarp in your wife truck so next time you can lay that over the bed at least try to keep the truck nice you know lol.

    True!

    On the way home from a VW car show with my kids this afternoon, picked up a Neon sign (still working) and about 15kg or Romex from a demolition site

    The kids spotted the pile and said we should have a look!
