    Yes Bert , Good to hear the cash is still flowing in and i guess more importantly you occupied and won't get a chance to get cabin fever ,couped up inside >
    Stock ,you don't know what your missing not being a cat owner . Cat hair is an important source of vitamin C, Believe me I swallow heaps of it ,and never get and cold . And there is nothing like streching and wiggling your toes in the morning to get them pounced on and force you to launch out of bed .

    Not Getting involved in the politics is a big part. Sounds like your in the same boat as myself, As a contractor the managment and visitors want there pound of flesh and moneysworth from a contractor. But you can only go the speed of the Gang or your "Trying to steal there jobs".. On with a Full contactor gang until chrismas for abit faster pace.

    Look forward to pics. What's your Machine?

    Winter gig

    As you guys know I got laid off a little while ago and spent a month looking for some winter work. Well my search panned out and I found some work similar to Rory's, only we're putting the wires underground and hooking them up to people's houses along with gas lines and phone lines. Sounds like I'll be busy through the bulk of the winter, spring breakup maybe a slow down. I'll get some pictures this coming week when I have a chance I'm just giving it a few days before I take any pictures the power company that we're contracted too is government owned and you never know with some of the personalities that you get with these people, since they're union they'll promote people to get rid of them if the crew doesn't like them and I don't want to play into any politics. I don't know when I'll get around to trying out that Terex 5 tonner but for the time being I'm enjoying the work. And so far the frost isn't to bad it's about 18" inches deep but not as solid as most years since we didn't have any rain this fall even before we got a little bit of snow so it's much easier to break up and I think the top layers of dirt are acting as insulation so it doesn't seem to be getting deeper...yet.
Working...
