With this splendid weather that @SeanKroll mentions, M and I have been working at clearing/cleanup of the giant windthrown cottonwood. Making progress. Plenty more to go but getting there a bit at a time. It really is looking much better in the areas we have worked on.

Spring Weather! The new guy has been good. Hopefully, he'll be back next week. He's has some jobs of his own for 2 weeks. In April, he's headed to work at Mt. Rainier for a 9th season, this time on trail crew.

The bigger guys here doing ROW will advertise 500.00 per diem. Often flip the travel and hotel/food bill. But, those are 10-12 hour days with hardly trained grounds people. Bennies too. If you live.

It's a matter of word's meaning. Illegal is quite broad, but it's just what's outside de laws. From slightly over speeding on the road to mass murder for example, the gap is huge. Somewhere in-between, the thing becomes qualified as criminal. So working without complying with the official system...

It's a 395XP, it already pulls them no problem. :/:
