raining like hell for three days now. I'm not even near the house though. I'm about four hours north doing some work on a piece of land for a friend.
 
Yeah, I got plenty of work (for 2 guys) but it is pouring again today. No reason to think this rain is not gonna continue thru winter and give gads of snow. Snow plow might be a good investment on my new pickup. Anybody ever buy a used one? $5500. is hard to cover in one season plowing driveways.
 
snowplowing and salting are BIG business here. the way it :censored: rains, no wonder.

I'm running a big ad in tomorrow's paper, we'll see how my fall season looks. :cheers:

It helps diversify a little David. Ever try planting and firewood sales. I get a nice little knock from these 2 every fall into winter. I am even considering top coating driveways too. That looks like some damn easy chump change.
 
Sold a LOT of firewood, commercially, growing up, and thru my 20's. now its strictly for heat, though I do enjoy firewood missions once in a while.:cheers:

Planting, sure, if I could sell it.

And I did sealcoating, once. summertime in VA, 95 degrees and humid as hell. got that sh*t all over me. :cry:

I have an ace up my sleeve though.

oh snap, forgot about this :censored: economy. aint nobody building.

Yeah, you forgot that's why you're back to slaying trees. lol
 
I was thinkin maybe chimney cleaning too. Not a lot of thinkin involved and that is my kind of job. (kinda like take downs)

I was actually thinking about the same thing earlier...I'll probably get cured of it tomorrow...I've got to clean one flu and install liner and stove in another...:blob2:
 
yep...got cured of that crap...got the new chimney liner in, got the other one swept...whole job, between the wind blowing and fighting with wasps over who owns the bloody chimney....sucked.

I need to go mangle a tree somewhere. :chainsaw:
