anyway, we have been loading all of the work pics to the hard drive in the office, because my laptop always fills up. i went to the office yesterday to get the real good fotos and the internet was down. so the blackberry fotos will have to do. for new. now that i figured out to resize everything it will be easier. these are mostly off of a large ranch we are doing. it had 2800lf of dry utilities. about 4500lf of road 20' wide subgrade and prep. 1200 lf of stream course and water features. and all the other stuff. the 48" squash, 500 trees to plant. topsoil, boulders, berms. snowing again and we have concrete at 2 pm. see ya

winter work

yes nedly, i plan on it, we are starting a fresh dig and demo next week so i am happy! i have a lot of other stuff coming up, looking at alot. so, for me at least it seems the worst is over. trying to keep the overhead low. the diesel prices are starting to scare me a bit. it may go up through january is what i am hearing. it is 3.49 at the pump. i thing i pay around 3.05 for dyed. but we are also using winter fuel now so it is more.. a few more. the mill working in front of the job. some various stuff, and a look at a wheeled excavator in the alsace region of france. no, the machine does not come with my personal operater:drinkup i plan on visiting the liebherr factory on my next visit in late dec, jan. so, that will be neat

So you are hauling millings and stockpiling them? That stuff is great. Looks like you are getting some snow there, early storms always cause a few wrecks. Is the last pic of your personal operator your wife?
