LOL>>>We've all been there. When she first started posting we all just assumed it was a male. Timber sale supervisor, knew logging, obviously been around a while...had to be a guy, right? Typical geezer mind set and I was as guilty as anyone else. Then the penchant for pink duct tape and other pastel colors began to surface and, man, were we wondering just what kind of guy it was. When SlowP started advocating getting rid of our dull old hickory shirts and jeans and suggested that color coordinating our work clothes would be a great idea...well, it just got real quiet around here.

Little by little she let us in on the joke and now most of us know. It's fun to watch somebody else stumble though.:) She sure has fun with it.

Look up the PNW GTG thread in search...there are pictures of her there.

She also makes great huckleberry pies.

I knew something was up with SLOWP when she posted that her saws were named Twinkle and Barbie.

Er, I mean, rather, that is what she calls them. Their real names are Jaws and Thrasher. :greenchainsaw:
 
Watch out. I've got guys naming their yarders, saws will be soon. They are also not calling paint colors in basic names now. According to the guys, I'm using TEAL paint. The pods are working! Don't sleeeeep.:greenchainsaw:
 
oh :censored: !

Next thing yah know, there will be an OSHA required color wheel on job sites with 10,000 nail polish colors and sparkley approval stickers on things like yoders and skidders. Then there will be pink, purple and teal saws and stuff. Oops, see? Its is already happening. Makita is already making teal color saws... and they call the decomp button 'happy start!'... :dizzy:
 
I'm thinking Chile now. I can speak a bit of their language and they are still far away. The snow should get the last of the mud off the tin pants and I noticed the oil change guy cleaned the seat of the chevy off. We'll be having fun on snowshoes soon. That makes for more ridicule opportunities, along with showing how NOT to drive in the snow.
:cheers:
 
Typical "Cascade Cement" wet snow can be tough even for experienced snow drivers,as the tendancy is to hydroplane.Wouldnt hurt to throw some sand bags or some large rounds of doug fir into the back of the truck.
If your familiar with the area,think about where you want to go before you get there(downgrades,corners,pull outs ditchlines etc.,)
Not to many Pnwers up here,I used to fish with quite a few,almost to a man they couldnt wait to get back to washington.And a small handfull was from Astoria area.

I threw in some concrete grid stuff and I should have help to do that, but I can throw in one a day, so I'll have weight in the back. The Vortecked Chevy Blading pickup also has an Allison? tranny so I can shift it manually with a button. I like that. The other thing about Washington the State is that often, the mountain passes will be in better shape than the lowlands. The crews have more of it, and the right equipment for snow, unlike down here.
