Jim got the cabinet out of the back of the 4Runner today - he's got some cleaning up to do on it.  He may use this one and sell one of his other ones... 

We've had some issues on the shipping end of Jim's blast cabinet.  The company called him last week and said delivery should be on Thursday the 21st; the shipper was supposed to call Jim and set up a time.  That call never came.  I called the company he bought it from yesterday - they investigated and eventually the shipper called and said it would be delivered today from 2-4.  Then a few hours later, someone else called from the shipping company to set up a time.  When Jim explained that someone had called and it was set up, this person said there was nothing on the schedule.  Our new time was 12-5.  Jim asked for them to call ahead of time so that he could be ready.  This afternoon, Jim got the forks on the Bobcat and had it sitting on the upper driveway ready for the call.  Time ticked by and Jim eventually moved the Bobcat to the end of the driveway.  About 3:30 he got a call from the driver - he had just dropped off the crate at the end of the driveway and was leaving!  Our instructions from the company were of course to inspect it for damage and sign off.  Jim told the driver to wait - everything looked good but still!

Jim got ready to move it up the hill...

Going backwards up the hill...

Heading into the auto bay...

This is the location where Jim is going to set up the cabinet, so he wanted the crate placed so that he had room to get it all assembled...

Glad it all worked out and things look good!


It was a day of on/off light rain - it was lovely out when the delivery came, so the trees got watering and we didn't get wet!

High 66.6/Low 55.9 - on/off light rain
