Yep, just my luck. That's the big draw back with a black truck.

"Have to be done this weekend" is just their line, you do it as you can. Don't sweat it.

Yeah, watch out for those grass cuts on semi-rural props.........they can be killers, ALWAYS eyeball a map and recon the property before committing!

Most outfits want broken windows replaced, I just call a contractor on my list, I don't have to do carpentry at all.

I think I'm ready for some good luck to come my way. Especially after the $100,000 loss I had because of the damn city of Arlington 10 years ago......

We'll start taking out the fuel oil and tanks after harvest so no hurry for now. They also agreed to pay me half of the proceeds from the sale of the iron and copper from the 24 HV transformers that are still on the old power poles. I figure there's about 1,000+ pounds of copper alone! At $3.50/pound I should make over $1,000 for just a little work. Harley and I will cut down the old power poles and dissemble the transformers to retreve the copper and iron. And we get to keep the transformer oil for shop heat! A win-win all around.
