Yea, but let's figure he's going 4" at $25 a yard. That makes for 6500 for material plus I'd say 1500 or 2,000 for raking plus probably another 2500 or so to get it all graded in would make for 11,000 before seed.
You're talking about like 13 triaxle loads of material.

Thanks! Those tie downs were ones the previous owner installed...but I tell ya, they come in handy a lot!
Happy birthday to your little one!! When my nephew turned two last year we all went to Chuck-E-Cheese with a billion screaming children buzzing around everywhere. Talk about birth control!
My sister Holly and I were the youngest "adults" there so we were put in charge of helping the toddlers through this big hamster maze thingy they had there. My knees got sore, not made for someone over 3 1/2 foot tall!
What do you have planned for a party? When I was a kid I always had parties at home, and those were the coolest.
Well I have an early morning tomorrow. Gnight everyone.

Just planning on a b-day party at home.
It is the easiest.
We did Chuck-E-Cheese when my daughter and nephew turned 3, what a zoo.
I don't remember it being that bad when I was a kid
Time for bed, gotta get up and get moving fairly early tomorrow.
Oh, and on falling asleep in weird places, weirdest place I've napped was on top of a 300' tower that we were painting. I had to wait for the paint on the inside of the top 25' to dry so I could climb down the outside and paint that. Climbed up on in the crows nest, clipped of my back layard and positioning hook and took a nap.
It was a long night the night before too, that didn't help anything.
Best piece of equipment to nap in has to be the skid steer, just put the arms all the way down and roll the bucket most of the way forward, this puts the machine on a good tilt. I used my hard hat and a sweatshirt for a pillow. Worked great and I was able to get a 1/2 hour nap.
Now I'm tired, time for bed. Good night.

Talking about falling asleep in odd places, I was on a job up north in alberta and the work was slow and we were waiting alot for a welder, and for this and that. So i layed my head down on the steering wheel of my semi, and had a nap. The medic chick seen me laying there and came tearing over there to see if I was ok!
Ended up having a nice chat with her, she gave me her number and everything haha. Too bad I wasnt single either, she was pretty hot!

I fell asleep on my creeper once, lying under a truck. Probably a good hour. Another time, when I worked in a Costco Tire Center, we had our coveralls hanging up, against the wall. Well, I got dressed, and hid in there ALL DAY. Punched out for lunch, had lunch, punched back in, and went back to sleep again for the rest of the day.

We have Salinas just 45 min. away from here. They had 4 gang related homicides by the end of the first month of the year. They are up to 13 now i think and thats just this year. And those are just homicides im not including the few that have happened and the people lived. Plus at least 20 non-fatal stabbings.

Good morning all!
Weirdest place I've napped was in a snowcat at about 12,000 feet.
I nap often when I go hunting. Imagine me in all green propped up against a tree, still holding my gun.
Sheldon...sounds like she wanted to check a couple other things too.
