FNG/Retired from Wisconsn

[dbabicky]

Hi There,
Just here to introduce myself. I'm dbabicky from NE WI. I retired from the Military in 2004, had my own concrete buisness till Oct. 2010 when I finally had to retire for good.
I live in the middle of 64 acres in the middle of no-where. I have a lovley wife and daughter, older 3 bedroom home with a 24x40 garage and a 50x55 shed/workshop.
Just fixin' to install a nice 2-Post lift in my shed to help with my Jeep addiction.
Glad to be here where I can learn a thing or two.

Thanks
dbabicky

Welcome to the GJ.

What county?

Grafton, Ozaukee county here.

Welcome.

The Jeep disease is very prevalent up there. I have a friend with it ... they can't treat it, doctors have given up. They don't expect he'll ever recover from it. He just lives with it. Waiting for the lakes to freeze over so he can treat the symptoms.

Welcome.

I just installed a 2 post lift in my shop. I paid $2000 for a used Manitowoc and in the short time I've had it it paid for itself. Your knees and back will thank you.

BTW, when I retire I want to move some where warmer than WI, I hate these winters. I doubt my wife will ever move though.

Hi HOTFR8 haven't seen you around for a while.
