I know it sucks Tom hang in there man

 

Sciatic pain sucks. I’m actually sitting in the recliner with the heating pad on my lower back, left hip for just that reason.

Flying above my house this morning American Bald Eagle

 

Tree guys were here a few minutes after 0800, they gave me a call about 20 till to tell me they were on the way. Three man crew with a lift and mini skid steer to move/stack debris for a separate claw truck to haul it off.

After walking the yard and talking with them I went for a walk, the cutter was just climbing in the bucket as I left. I get back in 35 minutes and the first tree is on the ground, this was a 30-35’ tall oak that’s about 36” across at the base. They haven’t slowed down. Working on the biggest tree now, it somewhat hangs over the front porch roof, they said it’s not a problem but I’m kind of worried, it’s taller and larger in diameter.

 

A few guys and the right equipment makes short work of it. I’ve had 13 Oaks taken out, stumps and all, I’ve cleaned up 3 that blew over in storms, used to have 28 . Rule #1 , don’t plant a tree within 30’ of a house. I really do like trees

 

Here's another one , Sgt Major of the Marine Corps calling Cadence

That's some good firewood up around my part of the woods.

Thanks for jogging my grape with that one, Chuck!

 

Good night Chesty Puller, wherever you are!





Rugby figured this out all on his own, no coaching from me. His mom wasn't amused.

 

Just got back home from my Brother's house and had fun time !!!!! , My SIL made my favorite meal for Dinner which is Loco Moco . This is a favorite meal in Hawaii and it's very tasty !!!!


Loco Moco is just a bed of rice with a hamburger patty covered in gravy and a fried sunny side egg ontop

 

Mornin’

 

Morning everyone

 

Good morning

 

I’ve kinda started a part time volunteer job, cleaning up campsites at my favorite campgrounds. Heading up this morning, I’m sure the long weekend has left them trashed. .10 deposit on cans in Michigan, helps offset the cost of camping

 

Morning y’all …

What a ride home yesterday. SIL took his skid steer out to camp to do some cleaning and what not. His backhoe attachment blew a hydraulic line so that was out of commission, this happened Saturday morning. As we packed up and headed out he left about a good hour + prior to us as we were cleaning the cabin and putting things away we had to make a stop in town for gas. We got about 30 minutes from Comstock on hwy 90 we got a call from him, blew a tire on the trailer,,,crap. We caught up with him and drove to Comstock, luckily we found a young guy who was doing road service work, he was able to get the spare tire mounted onto the rim that blew the tire. We finally got him back on the road after a couple of hours and we followed him back to Del Rio, from there we separated and moved along…or so we thought. We were about 20 miles from Uvalde when we got a call again… blew another tire on the same side, this time no spare. . He was able to find a road service with two good 16ply tires with rims, he unloaded the skid steer and had the tires off and trailer lifted up for them prior them getting there. Needless to say I not sure what time he got home but our normal 4.5-5 hour trip turned into a 9 hour trip home….

 

Can’t like that

 

Ha and would not expect you to… rough day. I will gather some pics of things that got done the past few days later on.

 

Good morning everybody
