Started our new job this week, moved to Ky and started on a neat land owner on a nice horse farm... Gravy logging with some big boys mixed in Looks like this week gonna be a wet one for shore so prolly be doing catch up work
This was a farm truck that was on the job
It's been a horrible week had equipment break downs from one end of the company to the other!!! First the air compressor in the pallet stock room caught fire and toasted it.. Buncher getting new rear seal... Din din had a computer glitch. Din din also had the saw motor break.. Diffy lock leaks stopped up radiators, bent metal on planters, dead batteries on grinder.. there's more but I'm slipping

This week was a good week for the most part...
Monday... Hauled out 16 loads of wood and finished out the yard and pulled the boom out..
Did a bunch of mechanic work, turned out nice but on the ride home ran into some
Fuel filter issues with Whitey... Came to find out there's a bunch of water and rust in
the tank..
Tuesday.. Rained took pink shirts and hats down to get lettered, then went to the mill to work
on whitey, John Deere reps came by and spent the evening with me, we all had a
ball and learned a lot from each other, went out for food and drinks...
Wednesday... worked on vidjas for a bit and kept the twins.. Big momma said lets get out
to the mill and get the verneer logs ready for the sale... The Chinese is gonna be
shutting down for the year soon.. Was a late night on saw...
Thursday... Busted into the new setting.. Big daddy already set up the yard the day before..
Set the boom in knocked in a couple crossings and we was logging...
Friday... Was a good day forester came by and was tickled pink at all he saw left blackey
in the woods that night got to drive the old sara's truck home, it drives like
dream with the weight took out of it... Momma and big daddy went to the
Kenny Rogers concert in French Lick... Momma say he aint looking so good...
Saturday.. Cold morning high teens, got three skidders on me and pulled all the wood out
was a crazy day but got everything finished up and ready for rain, me and
mommy took the boys out to see Christmas lights...
Good Times
Big Daddy over here!!!!
Boy what a week this has been..
This week was a crazy one we started out with two rain out days. Welded on Eli's forks Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday me and momma spent most of the day changing over the stuff outa the Sara's truck into Whitey. Peewee and the guys cut and stockpiled timber to get the pipeline loaded. Thursday we started topping bucking and hauling. The hill coming outa the job is bad news, we'll be lucky to make it without busting an axle.. I'll try to get a vid of the trip out sometime this week. Friday Peewee finished the cutting on this setting, Saturday the rest of us came in and finished all the skidding and bucking.. Got over 16 loads stacked around the boom, Hoping to get everything hauled out Monday from that yard but prolly not gonna make it before the Monday night rain...
Hoping the new hats and sweatshirts is done before this week is over... Mommy dropped of the pink shirts yesterday to the printers they gonna turn out awesome!!!
Everyone have a good week and work safe... Later Peeps!!!!
look how much bigger Whitey is than the old truck
Saturday night the yard stacked in
