You are correct...It numbs the itch. Just have to make sure that you get the microscopic poison oak oil off your skin first...don't ask how I know. I used to scrub with fels naptha laundry bar soap when I got home to shower. Had to take a lot of steps to minimize that stuff, but I would still...

That damn poison oak hammered me when I was down there. I look at that shit and get it. It kept me out of a lot of nice wood at times when I was there. Never was around it til I did a tour with Columbia to the swamps of Florida. Took one month to break me down, and overnight, blew up with...

By god, you as well pardner. I love my memories and really value my experiences when I was busheling. Jeff was badass to work for.

Just got on this thread. I see you got to rub elbows with Ron Grove. I met Ron in 95 when I was 18 and managed to get myself a cuttin job with Columbia, in Leavenworth Washington. I liked him from the get go, and ended up getting to work on Reavis' crew with him and I had the privilege to...

I don't of this one. I had a lighter duty thing that I pieced together that I bent, so I went heavier. All it is is receiver tube (male and female) that you can piece together to get the length you want. No winch, just a shackle hanging off the end, with the rope lashed to the bollard on the...

A few from the last several weeks

Yessir, I should just change my name to “the Lone Ranger”. 95% of the time I’m solo

By god I’ve just been busy, getting worked like a rented mule. Not sure if I’m working harder being a climber or a family man. A wife, four adult kids, 1 granddaughter that lives close and spends a lot of time with us, can sure wear a guy out. Guess that’s what life’s all about though. This...

Mini skid is invaluable for us solo guys. I bought mine used and have had to learn some mechanics, and have farmed out some more difficult stuff, but I would not be able to do what I do without it. The only downside I still have, is my chipper isn't beastly enough to feed with the dingo...

Busy...solo tree guy stuff keeps me real busy. I check in here now and again, but am trying to limit my screen time.

I work alone, yeah With nobody else I work alone, yeah With nobody else You know when I work alone I prefer to be by myself I feel the same way as you do about solo work. By god, I get pee stains all the time...especially when I am all amped up and wanting to bang out a big job...I am working...

Thanks for sharing Gary. Good thing you had an escape on that one.

I agree Jim, as my chip truck is a diesel, and I am all for small cars with them. The thing that pisses me off is when I see some punk kid driving a hopped up diesel, that has the "montana dirty diesel" sticker on the truck. They love to pull up next to yuppy looking motorists and set their...

I don't mind if it is a legit text, and it is simple and to the point. I do have a couple of clients that get to rambling on...that's when I just call them.

:lol:

I agree. Trouble is finding the culls.

I seem to get one or two of these a week: My blood starts boiling when I get them, because I know it is a scam. As you can see by my "house smashing" text, I like to mess with them. I tried calling this guy after he texted me back, after the house smashing text, and he actually answered...
