Now, that's a stack of logs.  $$$$$$ Just saying ;D




With a sawmill you have to have a lot of logs in the yard. $$$$$$$$$ is all you need to start a lumber yard. And want to work 12 hour days.  :D :D

4x4 hows it going ?  Rain enough for you ?  :D :D :D :D
Bruno, I bet your wet too.  :D :D :D
I'm about sick of the rain.

Don't want to dead stack Pine for too long with all the rain.
I tell customers the wood won't wait for you to stick it to keep it from getting moldy ;D

Breakin stuff, fixin stuff, cuttin wood!  It's been dry the past couple weeks.  Rained today and we needed it.  Been so dusty been havin a hard time seeing out of the cab of the backhoe and the air filter I imagine been suckin up alot of dust.  The other mornin I noticed it was 46 durgrees on the fahrenheit 1/4" decimal c scale...I sure liked that.  Excited for fall.

Plus all the salt on the road goes nicely with roadkill.  Don't even need to bring your own, can't beat that.   ;D

Well in these parts we've got the snow and the clean water but here in Oregon no salt on the roads so we have to do without the presalted roadkill.

The beds are 4x6 W Pine, I painted the inside bottom two rows with roof tar,
Filled ½ way with gravel, then loam toped with cow poo.
I put up a bed and filled with the tractor. Moved back and did another one. When all the beds were done, I put up the greenhouse over them . I have 6000 BF in all of it.

One of the best things I've done for the garden.

I'm sorry to hear that..see with all the salt on the roads out here, and the cold temps, roadkill is preserved for months, so pretty much any roadkill is grill ready no matter how long its been there.


What do they use on your roads sand?

If you're lucky they use sand, otherwise you just wreck your truck.  :(  I'll not take the time right now to explain how I learned this.  :( ??? :(

Sounds like the kids can still slay ride on the roads out there.
That was the good old days. We can't do that here in Pa anymore
with all the salt and cinders.

In NH they pretreat the roads with brine salt
We won't have any cars or trucks left it eats the frames right out.
I get my trucks hot oiled every year it helps

Hardpack is way easier to drive on than slush. I hate salt on roads.

Hardpack for six months of the year up here.
Salt doesn't do anything at temps colder than -15 C.
Road kill lasts till spring  ;)
