I plan on bring my deuce dump, trailering the m37 to Clare on Saturday the 16th. Between now and then I need to put the emergency brake shoes back on the dump and replace a wheel bearing. Oh and adjust the brake shoes on the m37.

Howdy Bob, great to hear you will be able to join us on Saturday, look forward to seeing you.
Interesting TedG, did not know about the event in Eaton Rapids on Sunday. I will not be able to make it, the MMMT is having their board meeting Sunday morning in Frederic. Hope the event goes well for you.
