Meanwhile, back in Ridgway

The ceiling of locally-grown, locally-milled, tongue & groove aspen has been installed in Forrest's camper. Since the planks were rather warped, bowed and twisted, I imagine there was a good amount of swearing while getting it in.

And Forrest took the truck out for a highway shakedown. It cruised nicely at 75 MPH on the way to Grand Junction where the new driveshafts will be made. He had to uninstall the transfer case and reconnect the rear wheel drive in order to drive it there. Then, when he gets to the shop, he'll reinstall the transfer case so they can get exact measurements.
