Hauled dirt today, 8 loads of 10 yards each. My truck could hold more, but it didn't like dumping 10yds even.

Pretty log, Joe.
Loads?.......Loads of cars I imagine.I bought a NEW trailer today, to run loads with,
Actually, I bought it the other day, but I just went to get it today.

I had one about 5 years ago with a steel checker-plate deck. man was that a good old trailer. I bought it for $800 off a guy who was getting divorced and I sold it two years later for $2800
That's too bad. But Walnut is always nice for some kind of project.Well, I ran THIS walnut load to my BSM,
First thing I did then, was to take a slab off the log and then a couple flitches and turn it,
I then worked my way around the cant, grade sawing it as I went,
It did have a few pretty nice boards in it, but for the most part it didn't make much "top grade lumber", anyway here's the "tally",
These were the worst boards from that log, (not included in the above tally) I set them aside and cut them to 4' to be stickered separate,
That's todays load...

Scrounged or buy it?Just bought a wood burner on Friday, so Sunday I went to get a load of Ash.
Nice!

Scrounged the wood. Saw a plywood sign along the road that said free wood, you haul. So I stopped in to see what it was about. I had to take the big truck back the next day to get what you see there.
Got another load from a friend that runs a landscape management company and allows some tree companies to dump their chips and some logs at his business. A few of us spent some time cutting/splitting/loading trucks. Sorry for the quality:

That's definitely not plywood.
Looks like some good heating wood there.
Nice score.
A little bit of "backwoods bitcoin". Worked up this load this morning and traded it to my friend/HS classmate who is an excellent welder for redoing my trailer fenders last fall.
One of two loads today from what we split last night and this morning.
Like to see the head on that weed-wacker if that is what you are using to cut your loads
Lol that was just the shaft on its way to the dump. Had already parted it out to steal the coil.
Last load for at least a solid month.

A little driveway cleanup for a friend this morning, if you look behind the cab you can see where it snapped off about 8-10 above the ground. Another good load still on ground but between being soaked from torrential down pours and biting ants I think Ill call it good for today.
Sweet sideboards!
