The dang oak tree tried to kill me. I was cutting one of the large branches off, topping it out, when it snapped unexpectedly. It was about 6" diameter and hit me in the temple, broke my work glasses and smashed my thumb on the ladder. I had to old the end of the branch and my chain saw as I backed down my 16' ladder. Ended up straining my back. It tried, but I ended up winning. LOL

The branch was supposed to slowly drop on the outer end and then I could cut it through. Instead it snapped before i was ready. I was topping it out so as not to damage plants, and the fence. Should have just taken it down at the truck and took my chances. That's what happens when you try to please someone else.

Nice to see Smoke win!

Kasey tried to take Newman out by returning a favor.

Junior and Martin just........IDK?

Freezer took a puke on us this morning or actually last Thursday.....Lightning must have got it.

Salvaged 1/4 of the goods in there the rest had to be chucked. That blew big time on having to throw a lot of meat away.
Ended up going to Lowes to get a new one.

I was reading this post one line at a time and thought "who the hell is Freezer? Never heard of a driver with that nickname".

Man, I hate when you have to replace a freezer. Ours is getting some years on it too. About 16 or so.

I think these are going to be what I go with myself. I have read incredible reviews on them... my stockers (new set of stock hankooks) are showing like no wear after a year and a half
