Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[muad]

Unfortunately I don't have a Ford right now, but I'll go with it anyway, Ford sucks .
I did see an excursion I was drooling over today, but it was on a flatbed wrecker .

I saw a 7.3 Excursion on Facebook last night that I almost messaged. Looked clean and they were only asking $4000. Which, seems stupid cheap for a 7.3 one. I miss ours all the time.

Those diesel Excursions are getting extremely rare.

Holydaze up here today soooooooooooo

I spotted a couple of nice looking spruce that would have made a fast load so that's where I went first . About 10" at the butt , looks good and of course it fetches up in the canopy.

Luckily I had my lever with me

Sadly the first 12' was too wet so I stacked those rounds and drug out the tops , I dropped 5 more nice ones but all too wet except the tops .
So I loaded what I had and headed for home

But as I turned the truck around , I spotted a quick maple

And on the way out another quick stop and,

The Kita rode up front Lol

So, what was the highlight of VD? The firewood, the fillet mignon or … ?

Asking for a friend.

The Blond, Brunette, and Red Head, all at once. The three hours were definitely worth the month of antibiotics! OH, that's a different VD?

It sure is .

Huskys at 40:1 FTW .
But you gotta do what you gotta do, right .

40:1 yes. Run Echo oil mostly but any decent oil will do.

My AK shoots great groups. The stereotype is a bit over exaggerated.

I got in a grudge match with my buddy and his AR, and me with my Ruger#3 in 25-35. It took me 3 shots to put a hole in a quarter at 50 yards. he dumped 3 clips in the AR. He said he couldn't see the quarter. he shot a hole in the back board that was smaller than the quarter. So, I picked up an orange chip from a clay bird, and put it on top of the quarters edge. Next shot he vaporized the orange chip, but still didn't hit the quarter.

Gona cost 3k to put a trans in my ftreefidy. That's a steal if theres nothing wrong with it.

Guilty and proud of it, your honor.

Probably with flip flops too, eh?

No that's me. I'm the one with glasses, ear muffs, shorts and crocks. Same dress for splitting wood. But, that's only in my wood yard that is paved flat and swept up every day. If I'm climbing or working for a customer, I dress appropriately, minus chaps.

James, you still mess with Echo's. I'm supposed to pick up a 280E tomorrow. It's so cute I couldn't pass it up. It's at my Echo dealers and one of the young guys wants to get rid of it. I told my friend to tell him if it doesn't have spark I'd only give him $10 for it. I just checked the bay and an NOS module is $116.

How much for a Ford unit ?

I try not to be one of “those guys”, unless we’re talking about vehicles. Then, it’s Ford is better than all!

No way . Chevys are . But I'm prejudice and they have to be at least 40 years old I even gave the bota a face lift

It’s all about the Indian, not always the arrow.

Between 2&3k. I might have to call @farmer steve guy and see what he can do. Might go ford reman and a 6.0 trans cooler and run with it. The stock 7.3 trucks trans cooler is a joke. Barely bigger then a power steering cooler.

Certainly.

Much like us, the ground never froze here.

Nope, ice is iffy as hell, firewood little season kinda sucks to get to the big scores, thankfully wood season is 24/7 year round.

This messed up weather is hard on the body too, never been stuck like this over and over and over in all my life. Had to go up on the roof yesterday to clear some ice dams, fell of it, so tomorrow im headed back up to get the beer i left up there.

Good time to invest in bullets. I’ve been telling people it could be the second coming of the Black Plague

Nah the flu will kill more this year yet again.
Who the hell drinks Carona and cuts wood..........oh yeah Aussies

Location dependent. In Hubei it's been estimated at 18%. Likely worse in China than West. Only thing I can find with a quick look on infection rates is from Chinese who say about same as sars. I don't believe anything out of Chinese officialdom.

Where this government you can actually believe anything from? I wanna move there.

No freezing up solid here either, water in the ditches under the snow.
