I know, you hate to turn it down. You will though, because they will keep dumping it. And dump it when the yard is muddy and dump it when you have 6 years split and stacked etc. Lol. Take it while you can!And it just keeps coming faster than I can process it:

Still waiting on up to 6 more loads today, unless I cry uncle first. I hate to do that though since I want him to continue to use my place as a dumping spot for years to come.
The only young kids are my own! At 13 and 15 they are able to help... it's the willing part that needs some work. But we are gonna get some good quality family time in this week.It looks like you have the space. Maybe get someone to help? Any young kids you could teach In the neighborhood? That would be a win-win.
Yessir, that's a fine idea. I did use firewood chores as a consequence occasionally, but try not to do it exclusively - sometimes it's just being part of the family. But I usually only have enough wood around that I can keep up at a leisurely pace. The great motivator may be in order now.My youngest once asked why do I like chopping wood so much? It’s so boring! I later showed her the money I made after one delivery and she said she would stack for me. If she’s willing to do that, I would happily give her a few bucks for her efforts. May not be a bad idea for you H-Ranch to pay them for their time. Money is always a good motivator.
I had the similar thing happen on my 99 Ram. Got a photo ticket going over the toll bridge in Baltimore. Had a pic of my tag on a car. I think my neighbors crack head grandson boosted my tag and put it back. I think it was only $2, so I just paid up.When I got the 2019 F-150, the dealer got the plates for it. I get an EZ Pass toll for my plates for a date before I picked up the truck.
Called EZ Pass, fought with them, sent them documentation, the description of the vehicle did not match my truck.
They removed the charge, then posted it back on the next month! I called and fought with them, but they would not remove it!
I ended up giving up on it, it just was not worth my time fighting it.
The Kubota is a MX6000, 60 hp. It's about the same size as my NH 2120 but with almost 20 more hp and a hydro trans. It should have no problem running my 74" snowblower. The NH did well until around 10-12" of wet snow. The first pass was a pain. Snow would pile up, stop, slow rpms, drive forward, slow rpms, reverse and rev it up to pto rpm again before getting back into the snow. Then I could take smaller bites as needed. I'm looking forward to the hydro trans with a true independent pto.Must have crashed out right after that post.
If I take a nap, I really needed it, it doesn't happen often; now sleeping in, that's a different story, but I stay up pretty late most nights so...
What size is the kubota. I may be looking at another rototiller later tonight, hoping he doesn't get any other calls on it. I'll be doing a bunch more grading with the kubotas here at the house today.
Be safe on those ash trees, keep and eye to the tops and wear a helmet, they are dangerous. I bet out of all the ash trees we had here that only a 1/3-1/4 of them are still standing, and only a 1/8-1/4 of those are still alive . Sure sounds like a nice time, I'm ready to do some cutting and wood processing, just need to do as much on the grading before the ground freezes again, may not get another opportunity until spring, and I could have grass growing on some of it if I get on it now.
I think you need a bigger wheelbarrow!And one more before dark. Then we'll start back up tomorrow morning! LOL. I may have lost my mind somewhere along the way. This is a LOT of wood. (Edit: 20 dump trailer loads and counting...)

Both are Savage axis. Left is .223 with 3-9 weaver. Right is an older non-accutrigger in 22-250 with 4-12 Vortex.Good deal! Calibers of the bolt guns???
Of course all the hardware is awesome but dang that pup is adorable!!Had a fun afternoon shooting guns with my son and bringing little girl for her first trip to the cabin. Made it in with the truck and street tires but it’s not going to be long before that’s not an option

That's a lot of money for a wheelbarrow. Looks really handy for landscapers or maybe masons.That thing’s about $2,700 bucks. Hmmmm.
