I've been on the road for all but a handful of days over the past six weeks. Headed home tomorrow. I can't wait to get my hands on my MS390 and get to work on a huge water oak at my widow lady neighbors down the road a bit. The tree has been down since the spring. I didn't feel like messing with it in our 100+ degree temps we had all summer. We're still in the mid to high 80s for the forseeable future with an occasional day or two in the upper 70s. (an hour and a half west of Houston.) Not much chance of rain, unfortunately.
I've got a few cords worth of rounds that have been stacked for several months. Plus a handful of downed trees in addition to my neighbors giant oak. So I have a lot of work I can be doing. And I'll finally be able to put my Huskee 35 ton to work. Some of you may recall that I bought it several months ago. It was seven years old and had never, ever been fired up. Gasoline never put in the tank. The motor and hydro oil were as if they had just come out of the can. The paint job was without blemish. Paid $1000 for it! The lady said her husband bought it new and was going to take it to their property in Arkansas. He ran off with another woman and the seller got tired of paying his storage unit fee... so she sold all his stuff. SCORE!
Anyway, as I said... I'm ready to get to work!
