Forgot to take any pictures, ever since a new irrigation line has been put in, the high water table has been following the new pipe line and flooding out this farmers hay stack. Solution, put a french drain around the hay stack, used 4'' perforated pipe and sewer rock. Dumps into ditch on side of highway. Little bit of a challenge not to sink out of site, and get rock in the trench in the swamp.

Tree Removal

big tree

before

during

after

I have pushed a lot of trees over, this one almost got me. The challenge was, it needed to be pushed over the opposite way it was leaning preferably on that old house, so it could be burnt, not towards the equipment shed that was in danger of it, if it naturally fell the way it was leaning, which you cant see in my pictures.

The tree was right next to a road that I was trying to avoid damaging with my machine and sat in a ditch which was another challenge, I had the tree pushed over about 15 feet towards the old house and its roots had finally broke loose ha ha I had won. I ran out of room I was starting to cross the ditch and the big root system was beginning to come up at me, I thought for sure it would stay there if I got another grab down lower on the tree, so I eased off of it very slowly just in case it wanted to come back. Just then I slipped off of the big trunk and went through the middle of the tree, guess what ? It wanted to come back, luckily I turned the machine just enough to catch the other trunk with my boom. I call this picture in my picture album , Thank You Lord.

Lucky for me I had some friends close by that came over and lifted the tree off of me while I crawled out from under it, I want to thank everyone that was involved with that big tree, they helped me get out off a bad situation with only a broken light.

Stringing Pipe

I have seen and also done myself feed cows out of the back of a truck that is in gear and let it drive itself, but I have never seen pipe get strung out that way until today. The truck was moving alot faster than they could get the pipe off so they had to keep chasing after the truck and put it in park I couldn't keep from smiling.

Sometimes I wonder if its worth working in the winter, frost in the morning and the machines are froze down, mud in the afternoon, kind of soupy.

10" Water Main

I have been working up north on a pipeline with PC Development, we are replacing a 10" inch Main Line this is one of the smaller leaks i think its about time for this line to be replaced.
