OK folks I finally got to a puter where I could download pics and post.
The actual swap of the deuce for tanker went well. We got the tanker off Kenny's trailer without loss of life or limb and then placed the trailers side by side to move the deuce bed over to his trailer (this bed was for Kenny's buddy).
Using rollers, tanker bars and a come-a-long we got the bed moved.
I drove the bobber up on Kenny's trailer and we got it chained down and he had to take off for an event he was attending.
The next day we went up to Recovery 4x4's place and picked up a trailer that was taking up much needed MV storage space.
That went well except for the rain that Murphy dumped on us (that slacked off as soon as we got it loaded).
Murphy got his final lick in when I walked into the hook block on the wrecker.
I have decided to either come back later to get the tanker or have it shipped since it is too heavy for the gooseneck trailer I have.
Tomorrow we head back to LZ Akenbak Acres in the mountains of AL.
I'll post final recap Tues when I recover from the trip.

We made it home at 0200 last night. Had a slight fuel issue with the dually.I made an extra 300 bucks delivering a 2007 Freightliner Business Class from FL to GA.
Just about covered the fuel for the whole trip.
