Started a smaller job Wed. Guys got 400+ acres, mostly woods. Took down some pine & hemlock for us where he's putting up a big garage & we'll talk next week on getting a slew of ash out. I love it, I was getting bored to tears!!

Beautiful animals! 2 horsepower with lots of torque, all running on 100% biofuels. LOL.

and don't forget to use the methane coming out of the back end.

And the endless fertilizer as the exhaust.

Love to see the teams do their logging .

Remember the Panasonic lithium 18650s go in the rear end. Discharge the methane first.

Indeed they do Richard. They were real happy to get back to work. They like me, were just getting fat & lazy--winter stuff!! LOL

Showed Shelley your photos, we were mesmerized. Just super cool and pure Christmas card stuff. I mentioned this to Shelley that our horses might be actually put to work and she was horrified at the idea.

Simon, remind Shelly that it's not work to them, that's what they do & they feel real good after a day's work. But havin worked hunter jumper, polo, dressage barns & flat tracks-- I get it!! Interesting bunch--the people, not the horses!!!LOL

I don't know Fred. In todays "PC" society, you'll have the SPCA at your door in no time.

(Kidding of course)
Glad to see you guys aren't afraid of the white stuff, and some good ole American hard work. The way it use-ta be done. Thanks for sharin.

I agree, Christmas card pictures. I liked last years story too.

Ive always had a lot of respect for work horses. Race horses are neat. The rest of them are pretty to look at and watch, fun to ride, but kind of worthless

Good for kids though, and sometimes therapeutic for the owners.

Therapeutic indeed W, keeps me less crazy then I actually am!! LOL

Fred, are those your own personal ponies, or are they your neighbors?
