What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Mowed the yard. Spend about 3 hours weeding the garden. Put up one one those plastic sheds for the in-laws. Holy chit was that a PITA. But I got fed and free beer for my efforts.

 

Long day on the road, just stopped at a shop-rite grocery store in hopes they had some beer and wine. They DO!
Picked up a 6 of Yeungling, 7 bucks! Much cheaper here than up north. And I found gas for $3.37/gal.

 

It took longer than anticipated but the new water heater is in.

 

I think we need a dislike on the forum Gas here is 3.95

Must have been more than a remove and replace? run into some hangups??

 

Wife set everything up for the kids and they cooked smores over the little propane fire last on the porch last night. Do they love to do that! Time to get ready for work this morning. Hopefully I will be able to do a little work down at the camp late this afternoon and early evening. You guys enjoy your Sunday and stay safe.

 

Heading into work for an hour or so Will take the camera and show ya's what has to be 'flipped'

 

Replaced the heater and had to run the lines to the top. Had a flare fitting that was leaking but finally got it to seal..

 

Cleaned up the garage yesterday so today it was trip to the transfer station day. A trip to each place this past week, that doesn't happen too often.

They were a politicking at the transfer station today, got all kinds of reading (propaganda) materials to look over before election day.

Personally I'm going to vote no on yes, yes on no, no on any expenditures of money, none of the above on all races with candidates, and Mickey mouse as a write in when there are no candidates running (Minnie gets the write in on the next election).

 

Well this is the Bull chitting thread but this aint bull chit

They are gonna start hauling cake this week but with all the rain weve been having its still pretty juicy





And these little roadrunners are all over the plant right now so we try and mark them so they have a fighting chance

 

Loon. How did I know that you liked the challenge when you were up chit creek without a paddle?

 

Same problem every year with it Gas but it all ends up leaving by the fall

Here i was a couple years ago teaching the youngest boy how to drive one before he started a new constuction job the next day



The loader couldnt be a better place to be on Monday mornings as i dont need to hear everyones problems from the weekend

 

WOW! Your not up there without a paddle. That's a really nice paddle!

And I hear ya about Mondays. Always nice to have some time to work by yourself. Nothing to worry about but what you have to do.

 

Now please explain "cake". Although I think I know what it is, just want to be sure that is not chocolate cake mix getting ready for the Guinness book of records biggest cake.

 

It comes to my building at about 3% which is 97% water Gas then it go's into this machine that for some reason looks the exact same but in a cartoon pic?



Add polymere which seperates the the crap then dry's on the 2 acre pad and go's to a farm but not for humans..Mostly Pig farms

I know it sounds like a chitty job but a guy gets use to it no problem..

Cake is the dried chit man!

 

Sounds like a good job. If you get to use equipment like that!

 

I'm sure using equipment like that wears on you like any other job could over time. My friend works at SEMASS, a waste to energy plant in Rochester Mass. He works a massively huge loader 5 days a week and just does the same thing day after day, loading the hoppers with trash to be incinerated. His favorite part is collecting all the metal at the end of a burn session.

 

Loon,

One year, many moons ago, I got to operate a Kamatsu excavator, similar to about this size.
My father rented it for four days while we were digging (expanding) the pond on the property. It was loads of fun. I'll never forget doing that project with my father. We still talk about from time to time. We could fill the single axle dump truck with 3-4 scoops! Good times!

 

Yes. I agree Oslo. If you were doing the same thing constantly I am sure it would be tough. I notice when I am using equipment for the type of work I am doing to my property I am always getting in and out of the Bobcat or on and off of the Ford tractor. Gloves on to move this stone or stump, or change implements, etc. At the end of the day you feel all those trips up and down. Keeps you in shape though.

 

No fair you have a really big poop shovel .
