Hey Sam, were you seat belted in when she went over? Glad ya didn't get pinned or something.
When I was in 6th grade, a girl in my class had a teacher quietly come get her out'a class. . . Her dad had been killed in a skidder rollover. Not cool.
BTW, does your wife scrub the laundry on them abs? LOL
Ol 056 has a 12 pack too, but it's in his refrigerator! Hahahahaha
No wasn't seat belted in, it would have been a good idea though, LOL. I did have to take some measures to not go out the door before the machine was settled, as it did almost happen that way. I just pushed myself into the upper back right corner of the cab and road it down. As soon, as it settled, I shut it off and climbed out and took the photos, as I could hear Jerry, coming up the trail. I positioned him and pulled the cable, hooked the cable to the right A-Pillar and he pulled it back over pretty easy.
056 reminds of this saying:
It's not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or when the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worth cause; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.

I do my work, and it gets done faster and cleaner than most have ever seen it done, regardless of what state or region that I have logged in or who I have logged for. The guys that work for me like how I run things and they are given an equal voice in trying to get thing done as efficiently as possible, thats why they come back. What some hillbilly in cyberland, thinks is not overly important, as it is quite apparent that for all of his knowledge and experience that he has supposively amass in the last 2-3 years from when he cut his first tree to now (his first posts on this forum are some of the dumbest ever), he has little to nothing to show for it, except for a 12 pak in the fridge, LOL, but its good, it takes all kinds to make the world go around.
Like I always say, everyone can serve as an example, some of them, as bad examples, LOL.
We are back at the hotel, we have bucked up everything and are taking showers and going to go back out and start moving the machines to the front of the property, cause its 3 miles of dirt/rock road back to them and the low boys don't want to go to the back (I don't blame them).
Going to go work again on that nice swamp/bottom ground that we were on this spring and finish it, there is likely 150-200 acres still to cut. Timber buyer is up there now finishing marking a back line in the last corner of one of the properties. Bert, my best cutter is going to be coming down pretty soon, I saw that he called twice today. Jerry and I are going back to Kentucky to put a new undercarriage on the Mustang MTL20 Skid Steer and probably bring it up to move logs at that job. Will see how it goes.
Later,
Sam
