Hey Eddie, I talked to Randy he said hes a month or so back. Is there a way that he can tell what saw you had the work done on? He is going to do both but said it might save on parts.

Ok, Thanks Eddie! He said guys run 16" bars on them and can bury them in wood with out bogging down. Not sure exactly how he does it but he increases the compression and makes the ports bigger.

30 tons on one event? Must be making a ton of $$$$$$$$$ ????? At that rate you should have more than your DOT on hand with your own salt dome!

Just hate the waiting, sitting here waiting to decide when it's time to call in the gang.

We go through about 4-6 truckloads per snow...normally. Each truckload is 3 tons. I try to keep about 50 tons at the start of the season.

Like I said, that last freezing rain was ugly. Almost all the salt gone.

DOT abandoned a salt dome in downtown KCMO, I tried to buy it, but the property became unavailable. Somebody tore it down; it is a vacant lot now.

It had everything I needed: dry storage, sturdy concrete walls, good highway access, and centrally located for my customer base.

Well, ended up with 19". Going back out at 1:00 am. Two more packs of Marlboros, thermos black coffee and peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Haven't even started to salt yet. We'll probably go through 60 tons. I would rather be climbing.

Ended up at the ER, then the ICU with my wife. She is still there and pretty damn sick, heading back up in a bit. Pneumonia is a beyatch. O2 level was at 80%, scary ****.

Dang! Hope she gets better soon!

Got a new gm a month plus ago. Talked all kinds of experience. Slowly I have learned he has very little experience but maybe relatively he thinks he has alot. Yesterday after mentioning for the umpteenth time he doesn't have as much experience as he said he has while doing a td, he looks at my saw and in retaliation says "well at Nelson Tree we didn't ever put a bar on upside down". I just looked at him for a minute and went back to work.

I did that last year with my wife; only it was diabetes. Damn near died from high blood sugar. We had been to the doctor just the day before.

Oh boy. I can see all kinds of problems coming down the line.

This guy is going to blame all the problems on you. You need to start playing CYA on the master level, 'cause you are playing it against an expert.
