I ain't as good as I once was

[The Original Rooster]

But I'm still good for a heavy half day! Cut up and hauled off those pines and oaks that fell last week. Not bad for 4 hours work.

 

[normaldave]

That's awesome, but what did you haul it in...I thought you sold the trailer awhile back?

How many breaks did you take in your new chair?

Same here, 5 years ago when they drew the lake down, I hauled 250 five gal buckets of sand out from the boat slip by hand. This time I hauled about 30

 

[normaldave]

Seriously, about halfway through, I'd have to try to stack it right where it sits, put up a for sale sign and post it on the local social media. Looks like a big job to me.

To make matters worse I lost my crocs about a foot deep in the muck. Had to crawl out of the lake bottom bare foot

 

[sinclair1]

I would have sat in that new chair and burned all that in the redneck fire barrel. My wife could handle that load

I roll pioneer style like rooster

Man just think of the number of chairs that you could have built out of all that wood

I still have another trailer but for this I just used the truck. It was about 5 or 6 loads. The giant hole where I dump all my limbs and logs on my power line is about half full now.

Quite a few but it wasn't so bad with it being cooler.

3 pines and a rotten oak was too much to burn. I'd be burning all next year.

Ken, you ain't kidding! I see one of those in my future for sure.

Not a one, it was all termite infested.

I used to until many birthdays and a convincing SIL talked me into a bucket loader/forks setup for my JD. May sound trite but I couldn't understand why I didn't already have one.

I'm gonna say what y'all are all thinking.

That pile of haphazard rotted wood looks like it sits better than RT's chair.

Been waitin on you to show up. ??

 

[Nicodemus]

Little less talk, little more work. Come on now, get with it. The longer that pile sets there, the more copperheads and canebrakes gonna take up lodging in it.

 

[turkeykirk]

Maybe he’s gonna sit in his chair and shoot the snakes when they crawl out.

 

[4HAND]

Oh lawd.

 

[Silver Britches]

What you want, a cookie?

That picture is the after picture of where I dumped it on the front of the property. Snakes can take up lodging in there all they want. It's as far from the house as I can get on the property!

So what I hear you saying is you'll bring me cookies? A cold Guinness beer would be nice if you're coming this way.
