Afternoon Everybody.
My daughter and I both work at the same building, but 2 different companies. Have for 10 years now. It's nice being able to visit at work. Her schedule has always included a Saturday or Sunday. She just got a job promotion and now works Monday-Friday, same hours as me. She can now come have lunch with ol'dad. Which is nice. :clap:
 
hey guys. got out and cut a standing dead right next to the house. had the proper lean and I dropped it right where it and I wanted. later was cleaning out a stormdrain j-box and got stung by a scorpion. don't let anyone tell you it don't hurt. feels just like fire only you can't put it out. ice helps until you gotta take it off. it goes away but in the meantime.....

it was tan colored about 1.5 to 2 inches long. doesn't hurt any more. took about 8 hrs for initial hurt to go away. now I know. been seeing a bunch of them this year along with a bumper crop of skeeters. so much for the "cold winter" theory. I think they all come out of hibernation with an attitude.
 
Hey everybody, I know it's late notice but we are going to schedule Charity Cut 6 for August 23rd. We came across a cut site east of Ozark, Mo. I'll be going down there this evening to finalize directions and get a first hand look at things, but from pictures I've seen, this will probably be the easiest location yet. It literally is right next to the gravel road. This has all been cut down and pushed into a pile. Most is 18 inch and under but a few 24 inch and bigger. Red oak and cedar.
I know it's very late notice and I understand if you can't make it, but we will take anyone that can come. I promise lots of shade and cold water/soda. I'll see about a generator so we can have a few fans on site too.
I'll update this evening.
Thanks,
Steve

That is my daughter's birthday but I should be able to swing it anyway. Do we need the Kubota RTV? What about splitters? If I come I know I can swing a generator and a fan or two.
