Yesterday was hot and humid (for us) but an easy crane day. Today was supposed to be more of that but I couldn’t set up with out closing the road and somebody forgot to get that permit🤬. Turned into a ten hour day rigging out a good sized pin oak. Tomorrow morning I have two declining silver...

Little league tournament game today. Is it wrong that I kinda hope they lose? And happy Father’s Day guys

Duel fires going tonight.

How well is the tilt function going to work once you put your attachment rack on? And as I stated elsewhere, the duel axle is nice when a tire blows.

Well I survived till now. It was rough this week. As of 5:10 pm today I am on island time. I’m leaving for the outer banks early Friday morning (tomorrow off to tie up loose ends) and should be sitting on the beach late afternoon. 10 days off.

I agree that the bucket is not the best tool in a lot of situations. I like the spider lifts but boss doesn’t so we stay in the Stone Age. I debated climbing it but years have taught me that the risk involved doesn’t need to be there. To much could go wrong given the situation. Even out of the...

Yup. Had to hop scotch about 12 to get to the last tree. Sucked and it never quit raining. Some JB tank weld got us up and running again

Stupid gas chipper won’t start in the rain. Known distributor issue but you shouldn’t need to put a new one on every damn week. And after putting down 50 mats and 30 sheets of plywood a sheet popped up and gashed a hole in the def tank on the bucket truck. At least it’s only raining steadily and...

Sorry to hear Cory.

Even when it doesn’t matter what we tear up I use mats. I hate getting trucks and equipment stuck. I skipped the mats today to save time but we are removing 85 white pines that were planted in 1977. Most of the mini work stays inside the clearing area. Need the bucket for about a dozen so I went...

Went to work, flopped some trees, climbed a few dead trees, and went home. Then to a softball game and then back home to weed whack the creek bank. Finished up just in time to get rained on. Ate some dinner and now I need to shower.

Want down to the camping property to scope things out before the upcoming holiday weekend. Lots of storm damage but not to bad. Needs mowed but it seems to remain everyday now whether we need it or not. I went on a walk about and ended up filling a grocery bag with morel mushrooms. Also ran into...

Guess we lost a bobcat today🤬. I don’t have a clue what the boneheads did. This was at one of our dumping and mulch yards we own. The neighbor sent me the pic. He wasted a fire extinguisher while our guy called the fire department. Probably means we have to get a new skid steer before I get a...

I can usually stay pretty calm with the cars being parked in my way depending on the job and notifications. I stay polite until they are impolite and if they get demanding I then see fit to be not nice.

What’s he working on there Jim? Mid-nineties Chevy? Big block?

Well the 650 decided I didn’t put enough money into it yet. Damn key switch (fairly new) decided to stick in the start position and with my earmuffs on did not hear it. After about twenty minutes there was smoke and the starter went kaput. I happen to have a new switch and the starter should be...

The 650tx lives again!

My 462 decided to call it quits today. Six years and two months of my abuse finally won out. New one is in the truck now. Also got all the hydraulics hooked back up on the old mini before I went to get beat up again. Should have it done tomorrow evening as long as nothing comes up

Deep enough that I thought about unhooking the last few hoses and wires and completely pulling the motor out. That seemed not worth the effort just to see what is under there. Going back together nicely though. I cleaned up everything I could and put the pump back in before class tonight...
