hey dukie, i just went out and for 20 minutes tried with all my strength to undo one of the last 2 bolts...for the life of me i cant get it...and the other one i cant even reach. so id really appreciate you coming up and checking it out.
iv tried everything i have at my disposal...hammer to try to break it loose, lots of pb blaster, and 4 different extension combinations, with the assistance of a handkerchief to allow more pressure to the wrench without breaking my hand...and nothing. not even a little bit. i got 12 out of 14 out with no problem, now its like impossible...Anya is driving me bonkers!

Yeah, I felt bad too.
Wish I could of stayed & played too..
I'm glad he was able to get out.
Mike, im sure you were looking for a good excuse to go out there. And what better than to go help do some recovery.
Trails rd was alot of fun, even though I didn't do much, I'm surprisingly tired..
