I finally got some time to visit Hammond this afternoon. Spent the time tearing apart some more HUP rims. This time, the tires were only 50 years old, but did they stick to the rims! Spending time away from the barn has its disadvatages - it took the afternoon to separate one tire from the rim. I guess I am a bit out of shape. Hopefully the boys will never have to treat me medically, but if they do, I offer the following PSA:

Bob and Grant spent their time taking rims apart and pulling out a 56 PowerWagon that is heading to a new owner soon.
Not much else got done as Mother Nature unleashed a good rainstorm with lots of accompanying wind. So, the Hammond crew sat down to catch up on the past few months.
More later...
