The Descriptive Process

[Gologit]

Ordering the first round of trucks 1/2 hour apart and having six of them all show up at once and then start griping about the waiting time.

Yeah, I'm on the loader again...for awhile.


Sent from my phone with one thumb bandaged and darn poor cab light.

Next time, hand them queuing numbers and an old volume of women's magazines.

So I bought a backhoe on saturday, wicked deal, her name is Candy cause she's a hoe... needed some work, couple of hydraulic cylinders needed restuffed, and brakes need some attention...

I got the cylinders back tonight, reinstalled them and I was off to the stump pulling and beer drinking, at a neighbors house...

And then I blew a hydraulic hose... and smashed my home made thumb... Its ok cause its not like I need it on Friday or anything, and I still have to move it out to the site... and the stump is still firmly rooted...

 

[OlympicYJ]

Pics or it didn't happen! haha

You blew a hydraulic hose?? Weird....

 

[SliverPicker]

I think I heard of that happening to a guy once. I've never seen it with my own eyes, but people keep telling me it happens once in a while....

 

[SliverPicker]

Looking a innanet news about tornadoes. An lo and behold there's leaves on the trees in the photos in the stories. I'm in shock. We still have feet of snow on the ground in the woods. 18 degrees last night.

This sounded so far-fetched that I did a google search on it. Turns out to basically be an urban (or rural?) legend

 

[SliverPicker]

I should have checked Snopes.

 

[northmanlogging]

well she is a hoe, she's bound to blow a hose now and then...

still can't find the "pulley block" she was supposed to come with... but the war dept says I can have an old broken and greasy snatch block to hang on her some where...

oh and its f'n 80 deg and muggy here today... I wish it was snowing

well the watermen lost the court battle over the muck dumping.......they blockaded the river with 11 boats today.
i'm rooting for them but its only a matter of time.

Have them put on cowboy hats.

Cutting behind the firing ranges again. Only killed one chain today, a new record. Bullets are jerks.

 

[slowp]

Metal detectors might could be your friend.

 

[madhatte]

All they'd tell me is "bullets everywhere!" I still have to cut.

 

[slowp]

That must not be a place where you lay out timber sales? Mills frown on taking logs with bullets everywhere.

 

[2dogs]

Even portable mills. We charge $25.00 for each piece of metal.

 

[madhatte]

This is definitely not an area where we cut commercially. In the occasional sale where we suspect that there could be metal, the timber is sold as "potentially metal contaminated" and the bids come in lower accordingly.

 

[northmanlogging]

Its a shame that jblm is so far away, I'm almost tempted to see about bidding on some of them jobs, nice flat and hard ground, well maintained, just have to dodge a few bullets now and then...

The Navy has a couple of bases near here I guess I could maybe cut on...

Nate you thought about using carbide chain? Might actually be worth it for you since you are hitting metal. One more week and I'll be in Tumwater. Oh and I a cried found a mint 2100 CD for $400 a month. If I'da had the extra money I'da bought the thing lol
