Can't get your truck in anymore :rotf2: ?


To answer your question, no but hit up the rental places. Heck if I had one I'd let you use it.

:hee: That's been taken care of ...twice so far this year...once more soon. Had to cut a path down my power line and got carried away. When I get this brush gone there'll be more grass to mow. :wall:Didn't think of that....:biglaugh:

Fred, I rented one last year for a day.... seem to remember it being around 125 bucks for the day (cape cod rate).... one lesson I learned.... make sure to ask for one with sharp blades.... altho, being rentals, people run stuff thru them that they shouldn't... guy at the rental place told of the guy who rented one... wrecked it...he was shoveling clam shells into it, to do his driveway with... :smash:

wait till Jan 1st...have a nice brush fiah....

Fires on the hill have become problematic with the local Polite. Guy next door burns in a pit (legal, per Fire Chief) but the Summah Squid keep calling the Gendarmes. They got tired of these calls and watch us carefully. There was beer involved, thank god we weren't smoking cigarettes. Like Marlboros and Winstons. The neighbor is tops in my book IMHO. The Squid notso much sometimes. Throwing a couch on the fire every once in a while didn't help, I suppose... I'll have to grind it. How much did you get done in a day?

actually now that I refreshed the memory bank, that was a hundred and a quarter for a half day, (4 hour) rental... I got 4 or 5 huge piles of them small scrub pine ground up... I wanted the chips so I ground it up...that plus brun season here had expired early to it being so dry... they ska-roo me 20 bucks a pick up load at the Transfer Station, and I cry so much they only charge me for every other load, as I always remind them I got the damn short bed, so give me a break Pah-lease... ( and I still get more in there than most folks haul with an 8 footer :D)... but remembering the size of them piles, it woulda cost me more money and time, to load and lug it out.
Neighbors.... I only got one problem one, well, half the duo is gone, so one down, one to go... :rolleyes:...all the others are :angel:...

Most of my neighbors in Truro go back 4-5 generations, we all get along fine. But there and the new folks who want to take over paradise and make it over into a little whereeverthehelltheycamefrom.
