If we ever do blast it with the pumper truck I will certainly get vid of that.

Yep, kids can help define a lot of it. I got home last night and the stump was already gone. My son had already moved it (with the spar still attached!?) down past the burn pile back into the woods...end of adventure for now.

No, the power line is directly over where the firetruck was pulling from.

Hahaha...just 'cause we wanted to??? Even with it dug out all the way around it still took a very stiff jolt to get the thing to turn loose...the b-hoe couldn't do it. That's our version of the caterpillar some of you guys use sometimes. Besides, a little chaos and havoc is good for the soul...

Hahaha...great idea...ride around the neighborhoods with the siren going, passing out flyers for tree work...and "we'll pull your stumps OUT of the ground with a firetruck." Local kids would be our best salesmen, wanting a firetruck to come to their house. :lol:

:lol: Justin, you are very right..it is a pretty big mess...but, CV is right, too. I think Hayden will be bragging about using a firetruck to pull a tree over for awhile.

hahaha...maybe...ain't that a bummer? But, it is a gum, too, and I thoroughly do NOT like gums...taking it down will mean less gum balls to worry with.:D

I can't believe we didn't fire up the siren just before he pulled it...THAT would epitomize the ultimate hillbilly.:lol: Maybe I can dub that in....:/:

hahaha...hillbilly...hadn't thought of that but you are right.

What happens when a young man has his own backhoe, firetruck and his father's chainsaw...and a 9 foot high sweetgum stump? Madness.... I took down this gum several months ago...we left it high so we could do exactly what we did today. I had dug out some of the large roots on the backside of...
