    Saw this while perusing marketplace. Had the wife contact as this is my only social media. I've taken 4 loads so far and plenty more to come. 20240823_104532.jpg 20240823_104558.jpg 20240823_104556.jpg

    Bobs do it all....that's what she told me the van said. He dropped them and removed the logs. He was supposed to clean all of it up but never came back. Took advantage of the elderly.

    Nice haul. Sad the original hire bailed before completing the work. I wonder how some people sleep at night.

    I hope she didn't pay him yet.

    Is that a barber chair, or did he just eyeball the lean and put in an angled back cut until he heard a crack?

    It's nice you can clean it up for them and get some great farwood too.
    Shame on Bob for treating them that way.
