I was gonna work today but 2 guys didn't show up. Guess nobody needs to work anymore. Wish I didn't have to work too.

Seen the request this morning. I have been going out only when I have too. This sure has been a long one. Keep looking at the 10 day forecast. It never ends. (barrel in mouth)

What part of Iowa are you in? I'm just west of Ames. Go Cyclones!
We've been working all winter.

I am in the QC. Have work, just not interested in going out in this crap. Each year gets worse.
Didn't do a whole lot today. Went to scope out a 26 tree removal for the gas company. The "bat" tree rush is starting now. Got a few more pages of emails from them for more "bat" trees. The ones I looked at I called for a "make safe" from the local power company. We'll see how that goes. Came home, got my pickup running again, and spent most of the afternoon looking for a newer vehicle.
Almost forgot. It was a beautiful day
Hope you took the day off Jeff

I bought another chipper today. I hope it gets delivered some time this week. The only thing I'm a little worried about is that it's a diesel and I live in a cold state in the winter. We don't always park in places with easily accessible electricity to plug things in overnight so we may have to experiment a little to see what is best to get it warmed up. One thing I think I will do is pull the battery at the end of the day and store it in a warm spot. I'm also wondering if I can install a converter in the bucket truck and plug a block heater into it for the chipper so the chipper warms up while the bucket is warming up before we roll out.

Pictures from the terex plant finally picked up the new machine glad to be home and out of my truck my ass is killing me. Had 17 hours of drive time in the last two days. Stayed at the soaring eagle casino and resort. Got my ass kicked after a few hours at craps. But other than that awesome place. left with a profit. Woulda had alot bigger profit if I would have quite earlier.

At least you got this spring and summer to figure it out.

I've always bought gas engines for everything since we have our equipment storage issue. We probably have at least a dozen places that we keep equipment at various times. But now is a good time to figure out what to do with diesel engines. I'd like to make the switch but I just need to get a good idea of how it will happen. So this is kind of a little bit of a test run for us.
