    I was returning from an errand this afternoon. Im stopped at a light. Turns green, i turn the corner and theres a couple logs next to the curb...another case of FHC whiplash. Couldnt see them while at the light. One was locust! Looked small enough to maybe grab or so i thought. The rain had stopped and i didnt have a saw with me in the PU, but bed was empty. IMG_1832.JPG
    I turned around at the next street IMG_1833.JPG
    and went back to investigate while laughing at what a coincidence this is. Had to take pics...too funny!
    The log was too big to load as is. No room for me to pull over close and use a saw plus a VERY busy intersection otherwise i would go back. Cars stopped for the light mustve thought i was nuts (i am but in a good way) taking pics of a log and a street sign!

    “Braddd, Help Me Braddd,, I’m cold and lonely Brad, take me for a ride in your truck Brad. It’s dark out here Brad.

    You heartless bastard.

    What’s worse is now I’ll spend the night searching the nearby towns for Locust streets.

    I can picture Brad tightly gripping the steering wheel, slowing driving away and looking in his rear view mirror

    :faint:...that wouldve been my reaction to finding that. I get excited over one small locust log in a massive tangle. You should post a thread of your own JB Sawman With a load like that it well deserves it!
