We contemplated going with a post hole digger, but decided the backhoe was more versatile around the whole property.

I agree, it still took all day to make cages and wrap the trunks in window screen.

This is the first year we had a backhoe attachment for our kubota. I’ll plant 1000 trees with that, no more sore back.

We were in the path of near totality. The schools around here all had a 1/2 day. Unfortunately it was to cloudy and we caught a few seconds here and there as the clouds rolled through.

I spent the extra money on older trees this year. They looked phenomenal and I wish I bought older trees the last few years.

That’s a really tough situation you are in. I hope it gets better for you. The electrical backlogs are insane from what I’ve seen. We have installed bottling lines only for the lines to sit idle for months while transformers and electrical equipment is being built. We have switch gear in...

I like your commitment. I agree with pretty much everything you say. I just feel like I’m nothing in the whole picture so it doesn’t matter if I don’t participate, it won’t change anything.

A big construction site we were working on has AI cameras set up to find OSHA infractions. And then facial recognition is used to find repeat offenders and to focus on them more. Its a scary time.

You are a Dave Ramsey guy and I like that. I'm Dave"ish"

Dated philosophy, maybe. But I know how much stupid shit my wife buys on Amazon, just because. I'm guilty of it too. If we paid cash for everything I would be saving a lot more money each month.

What’s your goal for the yard tree?

Awesome man, I have 4 myself. I just had to retire my first beagle though. My other three are really picking up the slack.

Hi guys, I know I never posted much but I loved reading all your threads. I hope all of that continues.

I don't know if I could watch a video of me being manhandled by a limb like that. It would bring back the pain.

If you can get your hands on a smaller dump truck you can block the center of the tailgate just wide enough where stone won't fall in the center of the road and only in the ruts. We have done that before it saves a lot of time shoveling and moving stone around by hand.
