Speaker A: Hello? I was talking to Mike on 9-12-12 when you texted me. I was helping Brandon with something. Took me so long. She wasn't here. I was helping her something. But anyway, so here I am. Now,
Speaker B: did you go up there for a birthday party again
Speaker A: or was it late Christmas?
Speaker B: Late Christmas.
Speaker A: Ah, okay. Had a nice time. Had tacos for dinner and hung out with the new fam and the old famous. And
Speaker B: I'm heading back. I'm using the outside antenna though. Oh, yeah, it
Speaker A: sounds
Speaker B: fine. It's just that you
Speaker A: can tell it's affordable.
Speaker B: That's why I thought you were in your truck. Well, it's dry up here.
Speaker A: Still cloudy. But how is it down there? Same here. Try to look at the full moon. That's shrouded. Can you see it from up there? No, there's still too many clouds.

Speaker A: I left Roseville today about 12:30. It was dry in Roseville, but cloudy. And then I get up towards Wheatland and Marysville.
Speaker B: Excuse me?
Speaker A: Between Wheatland and Marysville. About Beal Air Force Base. A real heavy downpour and I kind of thought I'd have to be dealing with that all the way up there. But then when I got up out of Marysville, up past the summit, still clouds, you know, in the sky, but it was sporadic and it was blue sky and sunshine and everything all the way up. So I got up to paradise and I got cloudy again. I was like that all day, isolated.
Speaker B: I left at 8:30 and it was
Speaker A: coming down, rain pretty good. Walked for the whole one and a half hours. I got to downtown Roseville at 10. I got my coffee sat down and just like that stopped raining and the sun came out. After I walked in the rain,
Speaker B: I'm on here as well. I had the wrong pl to begin with. M60WW.
Speaker A: Hello.
Speaker B: Where are you at right now?
Speaker A: I'm just climbing up out of oroville on highway 70.
Speaker B: Okay. Oh yeah, you're in that low area. Okay, I got you. I know where you're at.
Speaker A: Turns out a handheld too.
Speaker B: Ah, that'll do it.
Speaker A: Yeah, we were just talking about the weather and I was telling Matt I had a major downpour between Wheatland in Marysville. As soon as I got to field, Air Force bases really started coming down. And then it cleared up once I got out of Marysville and it was dry and sunny.
Speaker B: Well, that must have been pleasant then.
Speaker A: Yeah, it was nice. Nice drive. Just before I got into paradise, it was cloudy up there and sometime during the night it rained again.
Speaker B: Did Matt tell you I. I bought a new truck?
Speaker A: No, what'd you get?
Speaker B: I got a Chevy Colorado ZR2 and I'm trying to figure out if I'm going to put a radio in it or not.
Speaker A: Oh yeah, those newer vehicles, that's quite the trick.
Speaker B: It's going to be a real challenge.
Speaker A: Did you sell one of the other ones or trade it in?
Speaker B: No, I'm gonna eventually sell the older white truck.
Speaker A: Okay. What color is it?
Speaker B: It's kind of a blue. It's more of a flat blue I looked at today. There is some. Some metallic in it, but it's very tiny, so it looks flat, almost.
Speaker A: Very nice. Is it new, new or just new to you?
Speaker B: No, it's new new.
Speaker A: Oh,
Speaker B: my wife wanted it. She wanted something that she would drive, so that's why I bought it.
Speaker A: Oh, there you go. So you'll never See it, she'll be driving it.
Speaker B: I think it'll be the opposite. I'll probably drive it more than her.
Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. When my son bought his truck at a GMC dealership there, Folsom, a couple weeks ago, they had a brand new Colorado that they. Well, I don't know, the GMC version of Colorado. I don't know what, can't remember what it is, but man, that thing was loaded. Loaded to the gills with 4x4 features and off road stuff. Tire in the back and everything. They wanted 70 or 80 grand for it.
Speaker B: Yeah, well, this one's fully loaded as well. Oh, and by the way, that one version is called a canyon.
Speaker A: Okay. Yeah, it was nice, man. It was leather interior, leather seats and all that, man. Really nice truck.
Speaker B: But
Speaker A: you'd have to, I mean, to get the money, your money's worth out of it, you'd have to be an off roader or somebody that went camping a lot or something.
Speaker B: I know I'll never use half the stuff that's on this truck.
Speaker A: Yeah, but you guys go camping. I don't know. You probably use your big truck to tow your trailer though, with.
Speaker B: Yeah, this one's got a tow package on it as well. But it's not big enough to pull that trailer. I could haul a boat with it, I'm sure.
Speaker A: Very good. It's not always nice to have a new vehicle.
Speaker B: Yeah, I was thinking, I don't have a lot of new vehicles left in me.
Speaker A: Me either. I'm trying to figure out. Well, not that pertinent to figure out now, but at some point, you know, because I have my Mazda CX5 and then this, which is, you know, 2014, so it's got a few good miles left on it. But one of these days I'll probably maybe trade both vehicles in just to have just, you know, whittle it down to one vehicle, probably another truck. Because owning a house, it's always nice to have a truck.
Speaker B: But.
Speaker A: Yeah, someday in the near, in the distant future,
Speaker B: We.
Speaker A: 6axm receiver. 66 are you. Anyway, I like trucks and so I'll probably, you know, I would probably wind up getting another truck, but I don't think I'll ever buy a new vehicle again. I'll probably just find a good, you
Speaker B: know,
Speaker A: quality used vehicle. I do like having a 4x4 package on it in case I ever wanted or need it for anything, but really don't use it.
Speaker B: Well, let's see, all three of mine have are four by fours now and I had an Explorer that was a 4x4. The last one that we had that we gave to Stephanie was only two wheel drive. It does come in handy.
Speaker A: Yeah, it can. I mean, when you, when you need it. You may not need it a lot, but when you do, it's nice to
Speaker B: have it,
Speaker A: Especially coming up, you know, this way. Because paradise does get snow, although they didn't get any this year. Got a lot of rain but no snow.
Speaker B: Yeah, well, we got a couple more months to go.
Speaker A: That's true. Anyway, my son, he got a full size GMC in 8. I want to say 8T4 or something like that. I don't, I don't know that I recognize the model on it, but very nice truck, man. It's a 2019, so it's not brand new either, but it might as well be. It's very well maintained and good condition. So he's happy with it.
Speaker B: I'm not familiar with what that is. Matt is going to be away from the radio for a bit. He'll be back.
Speaker A: Okay. Well, I got up for a late Christmas up there today, so that's what that was all about. My son. Now you probably don't know all the details, but he's been divorced for a little bit and he met this new gal and she's very sweet and she has three boys of her own. So it's kind of like the Brady Bunch because my son has three. Three kids, although her oldest boys are already in their teens. Very sweet gal. So we spent the day up there at her place up in Magalia and made tacos and just had a nice time. I always enjoy family days.
Speaker B: Oh, that's nice. But wow, six kids, my gosh. Well, I had the last two days of not been great for me. My mom passed away this morning, but we knew it was coming.
Speaker A: Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. That's a rough one. I mean, whether, you know, it's coming or not, it's always, always a rough situation to lose a parent.
Speaker B: Well, she was 93, almost 94.
Speaker A: She beat.
Speaker B: If she made it to 94, it was just this next month. So she lived a good long life.
Speaker A: Yeah, that's for sure. That's a good age. And for the most part, if I recall correctly, just until last, you know, recently, where she wasn't able to be on her own.
Speaker B: Well, she's been at that home for like two and a half years. But, you know, for a while she was, you know, we'd drive her to appointments and so forth. But, you know, this last year that Wasn't possible, but. Yeah. Just progressively got worse and worse.
Speaker A: Well, my condolences to you and your family. But like I say, she lived a good, long life and she left this world knowing she was love. That's the main thing.
Speaker B: So, anyway, I have two sisters that are here in town. My brother, he's. He's in Arizona, so he wasn't here, but everybody else was.
Speaker A: That's good. I didn't even know you had a brother. I don't think I heard you talk about your sisters, or at least one in particular, but I didn't know you had a brother.
Speaker B: Oh, yeah, he lived here in Sacramento, you know, his whole life, you know, with me and, you know, this area. And when he retired here a couple years years ago, he moved up to Reno. And he's also got another house down in Bullhead City in Arizona, just across the river. And so in the wintertime, when it's cold, he's down there to stay a little warmer.
Speaker A: Oh, very nice. I always thought it'd be kind of fun to have an alternative living space. Not in the cars for me, but I always thought it'd be kind of neat to have. Whether it was a cabin or something, you know?
Speaker B: Yeah. I never wanted to take care of two places.
Speaker A: Well, there is that. Yeah. I have enough time trying to take care of one, so. You're right there. So, in fact, this last storm that came through, big old branch came down off a tree in the backyard that I gotta deal with sometime this week, if ever. We have a day or two where it doesn't rain.
Speaker B: Well, I think. I don't know if I told you, but the last big storm we had, that was real windy here a couple weeks back. Neighbor one block down, they had originally two giant oak trees, and they had one taken out a few years ago. And the second one came out the day of that storm when it hit that night. He had it taken out that day, so he was probably fortunate. If anything, it broke, it would have gone to the house because it was on the south side of the house.
Speaker A: Oh, geez. Sounds like he avoided a bad situation.
Speaker B: Yeah, they used a giant crane to take the chunks out of the yard with that one.
Speaker A: Jeez, that probably cost a bit.
Speaker B: I'm sure it cost them a pretty penny.
Speaker A: Well, this tree here isn't too big as far as trees go. It's pretty good size, but it's one of those fruitless plum trees which still bears fruit in the spring and summer. Little, small, little plums that are really good when they get ripe, but
Speaker B: a
Speaker A: big old branch on the side of that came down. Luckily, it didn't hit a fence or just landed in the grass. I got lucky there. There's no buildings or anything around it, and the neighbors weren't affected, so I'm just letting it sit there until I can get to.

Speaker A: Okay, I'm looking at the weather forecast here and it shows 99% chance of rain tomorrow. So I'll check the hourly next.
Speaker B: Okay. I've been kind of busy, so I haven't really been watching the weather too close. So I was kind of wondering what the rest of the week had in store for us.
Speaker A: Looks like tonight there's kind of a lower percentage chance of rain, but around midnight, one o', clock, it should start in.
Speaker B: All right, well, it sounds like tomorrow's out and I can say I'm not in any big hurry. I guess at this point I was just waiting for a day or two where we have some dry weather.
Speaker A: I had to step out of the room for a bit.
Speaker B: Ki 6:50. Eric, what do you have to do? I stepped out to brush my teeth. I got back. What do you have to do that you have to wait for the weather clear up? Oh, I was telling. I think I told you, but I said, tell Mike. I had that branch on that fruitless plum in the backyard. Pretty good sized branch on one side of the tree broke off at some point. I don't even know when it happened. We've had some pretty decent wind gusts. And so I don't know if it happened during the night, some night, one night, or the day. And I just didn't notice it because I don't go out in the backyard when it's inclement weather. So I just noticed it. Was it yesterday? I guess I was like, oh, I need to get to it. But I wasn't sure when we were gonna have
Speaker A: dry weather again. Okay.
Speaker B: And now that I got that chainsaw back from. From exercise mower, I go out there with that thing, chop that thing up, get rid of it.

Speaker A: Well, Mike said it looks like it's going to be raining again tomorrow, so have to wait and see. Wait for a
Speaker B: dry day? Yep. Of course, you like being outside in inclement weather. Why don't you come
Speaker A: over and and get going on that for me and I'll supervise. Or is that only hot weather you like to be out in?
Speaker B: I'll do
Speaker A: it as long as you
Speaker B: sat outside with pain gets wet. All right, folks, just pulling into Marysville at the red light in front of Maryville High School. Tell you what, that's best thing
Speaker A: since sliced bread is that they made that highway 74 lanes all the way, all the way from Oroville to here. Oh my gosh.
Speaker B: Cuts off 20 minutes. That the Lincoln bypass. Now they need to bypass Marysville
Speaker A: altogether, but I don't know if that's going to happen. I think they had like plans or were trying to come up with something, but I don't know if they're having any luck with that or not.

Now, this time of night coming through Marysville isn't so bad, but sometimes when you're going eastbound into Marysville from Roseville, man, that gets tied up back before you get over that bridge, sit in traffic, and then when you get over the bridge, there's traffic, and main part of town, there's traffic. It's like, geez.

I've been encountering traffic coming into Wheatland, too. Not every time. Today was fine. But that first stoplight is going into Wheatland. Man, that could be a bit of a wait, too. Outside of town, five miles an hour, ten miles an hour.

W e6a x n repeater n6pww, Kt 6 radio k6 fep.

Speaker A: Kind
Speaker B: of thing going on in my ark or planet by air. Nothing going on specifically. Probably start taking down Christmas stuff in the house. I unplugged my lights outside but I didn't take them
Speaker C: down yet. If it's going to rain
Speaker B: all day,
Speaker C: that'll
Speaker B: be a good indoor project, you know, Start taking all that stuff and putting it away. I'll probably just send my walk and after that who knows. Oh, and you said you went out at 8:30 today. That's usually. That's a little earlier than you used to go, isn't it?
Speaker A: I always leave at 8:30.
Speaker C: I was thinking it was more like 9:30. Well maybe a couple years ago I did, but I
Speaker A: made everything a little earlier just to. So if I need to do something in the afternoon or she wants to go to the shopping, whatever.
Speaker B: I gotcha.
Speaker A: Oh, I forgot to ask you, Matt. Did you wire up that light, that pole light? Oh no, I ain't been out there yet. I was out there doing something. I got distracted with something else. I'll get to it. It's all sitting.
Speaker C: So when I
Speaker B: saw that thing I was trying to remember where I'd seen them before. The first thing that came to mind was a dispatch station. Some of the larger agencies have those where you have a major incident going on or whatever. Dispatcher. But then I was at the store today and they had them there at the registers too.
Speaker A: Yeah, they're used all over the place. Dispatch did use them. Not rock them, but I'd assume different agencies. They're just made to tell you what you're doing. So if it's red you're on 911. If it's jello you're on just a regular phone line. And if it's green you're not doing anything. So you just walk up and talk to them.
Speaker C: Okay. Now entering beautiful downtown Wheatland. You say Wheatland? Yeah,
Speaker A: back in the days you'd say now entering Wheatland and then about 36 later, now leaving Lincoln Wheatland.
Speaker B: Yeah, they've come up in the world. They got. They've added a stoplight. In fact I think they've added two.
Speaker C: The newest one is right there where the Taco
Speaker B: Bell is. Elder General and Taco Bell. And then they got one mid, mid way down the road and then the last one before you get out of town.

W e6 a x n receiver n60 w56 rainbow ai6 fix.

Speaker A: Well, anything going on in the big city tonight, Matt? Ah, Roseville's got. Had a foot pursuit out there and they're out there trying to catch them like they're Tarzan or something. And they're not winning at it over there off a fairway someplace. Been at this for like an hour. Now,
Speaker B: There's another station in there that has a little bit of interference on it. I have to start off there. Go ahead. Maybe he just wanted the id.

Right back if it's a cryo, okay?

Speaker A: Hey, Mike, have you heard from Dan at all lately? I just texted this morning, but that's it. Actually, it was to Gundy, but he's around. Okay. I haven't been on the radio. I watched myself lately,
Speaker B: so I didn't know if he's
Speaker A: been on around or not. I haven't heard him in a while. I talked to him about a week ago. Okay. Everything good? As far as I know. That's good. I didn't know if they were going to try to go visit her parents for the holidays or not. Yeah, they're
Speaker B: planning on going over there.
Speaker A: I think it's in February.
Speaker B: Okay. Okie dokie.
