Good enough brother, you did your best Lindsey! Thanks for sharing and the best of luck my friend! Get some rest and don’t stress yourself brother! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼…………………………………………………………… That storm barely missed me. A guy I work, with who lives 20 miles away, got about 3 inches. It rained, but no snow. That looked like a sloppy, muddy mess!
I know where the cold weather went. Should be-20 here in Wyoming and we hit 48 degrees today. Another good video. Have fun with the cold I’m not missing it.
That's the bad part about trying to do dirt work in the winter. I usually try to take off and go duck hunting as much as I can in January. Either the ground is frozen, or it's so muddy you can't stand up. I tried to grade out a yard yesterday, but that was absolutely futile. My power rake just bounced across the ground.
Your doing a great job. It's hard working with wet clay and even harder when the first 6 to 8 inches are frozen. You will get everything looking great around the pond in late spring or with your luck June when it usually stops raining. LOL I sure wish I still lived in DeSoto county I could be Jimmy #2.🤣 And I'd be right there with you in the cold wet and muddy clay. That's the one and only thing that I don't miss about excavation work! LOL You Be Safe Out There Buddy and try to stay warm and dry.
Nice job brother. Wondering how much frost did you have? Also the pond looks really nice with the water in it. Way to stay with it with the conditions.
Our first winter in Montana we had some cold weather for over 2 weeks. When it finally warmed up and broke zero we were outside in jeans and sweatshirts🎉
@@smithworx1091 lol. It’s actually not that bad once you get used to it. Zero degrees in the sun with no wind is pleasantly crisp 😎 Yeah it’s easy to tell who’s from the south 🤣
@RickyCervo yeah I'm sure once I can actually finish grade everything. We'll put some at the start of pond and discharge of the pipe. Rook will have it looking good
I have some videos way back that explain it in detail. I think they're pretty close to when I first got the 313. But next time I'm using it, I will try to explain it again. Thanks buddy
Mid 80’s the next several days here with low’s in the mid 60’s, light breeze and scattered clouds. It’s far from a cakewalk though because the pool is about 65 degrees 😢
@@smithworx1091 not a typical concrete riser. They have plastic ones, they look kinda like a T fitting but the bottom is sealed. They hold a trash rack too which is nice.
@kennethney4260 ahhh ok. I've seen them. Yeah that would definitely work well on this levee. After it dries up, I think I'm gonna reset the pipes so we might add that.
@@smithworx1091 looks like you’ll get hit in a few hours, hopefully it’s just rain. I always think about tornadoes popping up when the line of storms rolls through Louisiana to the Atlantic coast. We get a bunch of tornadoes here but they’re usually very small and short lived.
Good job buddy. Winter work is no fun. Especially when you're not used to it. That overflow should work fine. Take care. Stay warm.
Thanks a lot buddy! I wish I could just hibernate during the winter 🤣
I'm impressed the pond is as full as it is and surprised how frozen the ground is there. You got it done though.
It filled up way faster than I would like. It's very rare our ground ever freezes. I couldn't believe it
Good enough brother, you did your best Lindsey! Thanks for sharing and the best of luck my friend! Get some rest and don’t stress yourself brother! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Appreciate you bro!
Good job dealing with the frozen nuggets !! Rock on !! Better weather is coming soon !! 🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🎤
Appreciate it bro! It'll be spring before we know it
Good video as usual, Jimmy must take off during deer season. I see a trend of Rook pawning work off on you, just kidding, yall stay warm.
Thanks brother. I got to find Jimmy something to do. He's getting old on me lol

Man yall got lucky. It was frozen over a week and now everything is flooding from rain. Gonna be a tough winter
Looks like a good place for a pond. Now I see u expanding it making it a lot bigger. But on the other side leave a few groups of trees
I figure rook will want it bigger lol
I know where the cold weather went. Should be-20 here in Wyoming and we hit 48 degrees today. Another good video. Have fun with the cold I’m not missing it.
Appreciate it bro! I hear we're all gonna get some cold weather soon.
Looks good Lindsay for what you was working with. Be safe and God bless.

The only thing worse than thick gloppy mud is sub freezing temperatures with thick gloppy mud packed in the undercarriage and track frames.
It's a good thing we don't have many ducks around here. Or I'd probably do the same haha
Shew weeeee! That was some nasty conditions! Got it in though! 😀
1 out of 5 stars.... would not recommend 🤣🤣

Thanks a lot brother. Yeah I figure it'll dry up around June lol. I needed a Jimmy. Those pipes were a little aggravating by myself
@@smithworx1091 it's hard to put those pipes by yourself. Especially in the cold mud. But you got it done. Your doing great work buddy.
Looks good buddy, be safe. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot brother
considering the conditions i say you did a great job..most other people would have just given up and went home..
Thanks a lot buddy. I hate that it looks like a mess.
Nice work bro, gonna be a nice pond when the grass comes back, thanks for sharing
Appreciate it bro. I'll be glad to see some green!
Nice work like always brother!
Thanks a lot bro!
Nice job brother. Wondering how much frost did you have? Also the pond looks really nice with the water in it. Way to stay with it with the conditions.
Appreciate it man. I think we got around 3 or 4 inches of sleet and snow. Schools were shutdown over a week
Man y’all got it a lot worse than we did. That pond turned out nice.
Thanks buddy. I hear we're all about to get it again
Our first winter in Montana we had some cold weather for over 2 weeks. When it finally warmed up and broke zero we were outside in jeans and sweatshirts🎉
🤣🤣 ain't no way I could do it

Awesome Job!!
Appreciate it bro!
Like dig on the roks 😮 God job buddy!
Thanks man. I'm glad we don't have a lot of frozen ground
@@smithworx1091 I can imagine, especially when there are these types of jobs to complete.. will you put some riprap at the outlet of the pipe?
@RickyCervo yeah I'm sure once I can actually finish grade everything. We'll put some at the start of pond and discharge of the pipe. Rook will have it looking good
I thought you said in the first video of this project you were only going to be there a few days.....LOL
Yes.... only 3 days.... which is now 3 weeks! 🤣🤣
Nice work ... Can you do a quick overview of what the beeping is and what the little screen and moving lights tell you ? Thanks
That’s in one of his videos. It’s part of the grading system. Really neat how it works.
@@PurpleNovember Cheers

@@smithworx1091 Nice one... thanks
Pond filled up quick
Yes sir. It'll be completely full after today
Hey, that pond filled pretty fast.
12 degrees here.
It did. It'll be completely full after today. You can keep that 12 degrees haha

🤣🤣 man y'all got it rough!
@@smithworx1091 😎🎉
It looks beautiful bro . Put in some Deer blinds
Thanks brother! The house is a deer blind 🤣🤣
@@smithworx1091 ...GGGG ! Got it
If you use a regular pond overflow fitting you would be able to get more depth on your pipes
Are you talking about a riser?
@@smithworx1091 not a typical concrete riser. They have plastic ones, they look kinda like a T fitting but the bottom is sealed. They hold a trash rack too which is nice.
@kennethney4260 ahhh ok. I've seen them. Yeah that would definitely work well on this levee. After it dries up, I think I'm gonna reset the pipes so we might add that.
We thought we would at least see Rook mixing the concrete?
🤣🤣 I would've definitely filmed that! He always finds a way out of helping me
You guys get hit with storms when that rain came through?
Not like they were saying. But I don't think it's over just yet.
@@smithworx1091 looks like you’ll get hit in a few hours, hopefully it’s just rain. I always think about tornadoes popping up when the line of storms rolls through Louisiana to the Atlantic coast. We get a bunch of tornadoes here but they’re usually very small and short lived.
That's gonna be a pretty pond when finished frozen ground is horrible to work with.
I believe it will too. Can't wait till the spring so I can finish this thing
It’s a shame you can’t call Jimmy to bring your dump truck to haul from a barrow pit on the hill!
I know. It's just so far away.
If you had a board cut to put in front of the pipe to push against you will save yourself some aggravation down the road .
Thanks buddy. I didn't think of that
Anyone ever tell you that you look like Bubbles from trailer park boys? Just need thick glasses
🤣🤣🤣 all the time bro! I get asked for autographs and pictures too
Hi buddy
Hey Niklas!
