What a week!!!

Boy what a week this has been.. 

This week was a crazy one we started out with two rain out days. Welded on Eli's forks Monday and Tuesday.  Wednesday me and momma spent most of the day changing over the stuff outa the Sara's truck into Whitey.  Peewee and the guys cut and stockpiled timber to get the pipeline loaded.  Thursday we started topping bucking and hauling.   The hill coming outa the job is bad news, we'll be lucky to make it without busting an axle.. I'll try to get a vid of the trip out sometime this week.  Friday Peewee finished the cutting on this setting, Saturday the rest of us came in and finished all the skidding and bucking..  Got over 16 loads stacked around the boom, Hoping to get everything hauled out Monday from that yard but prolly not gonna make it before the Monday night rain...  

Hoping the new hats and sweatshirts is done before this week is over... Mommy dropped of the pink shirts yesterday to the printers they gonna turn out awesome!!! 

Everyone have a good week and work safe...  Later Peeps!!!!

look how much bigger Whitey is than the old truck

Saturday night the yard stacked in

Finished on the Federal

Finished up on the federal job...  Started it back in the first half of October strait off the Martin State job.  Worked about a week then had to pull out and jump down I69 and pick up about a week and a half job down twords Illinois..  came right back and rocked out till Saturday after thanksgiving....  The last two settings we had to switch back over to the bucket on the din din to help finish the yards out, that fricken din din is about as handy as a pocket on a shirt...   Spent Monday and Tuesday welding on loader forks and the rest of the guys doing maintenance on rolling stock...   Me and Big momma went to town to try to get Whitey tagged but no such luck!!!  Fricken license branch!!!!!!   But hopefully tomorrow it'll happen...  Gonna bust open the Martin State job tomorrow cutting and skidding and setting up the yard...  Monday me and mommy dropped shirts and hats off and they gonna turn out great....  Even got the pink shirts ordered!!!!  YEE YEE!!!!
