      One thing for sure, I never know what she's gonna say. So many times I hear it for the first time while editing. This type of video is different though because we get to actually talk our way through it. Thanks for the cool comment Tony...and we appreciate you stopping by today.

    Well done, glad to see people that still know how to unload logs, not many people can still do it safely!
    I logged my last 4 teenage years, unloaded many loads of logs (12-16' SYP) with a cant hook, just always had to "read the load!"

    • @tractorman4461
      @tractorman4461  Місяць тому +1

      I grew up on the business end of a cant hook too. Working with the big old Fisher and Davis circle mill was one of my favorite work days back in the day. We side loaded (par buckled) logs with a tractor, wooden poles and cables too. No loaders back then. Well we had a MH44 with a loader, but it would barely lift a rounded bucket full of manure, so logging was mostly by hand.

    Oh boy I bet she gave you an ear full when the camera was off!!! Her commentary is always great. I do the same thing sometimes with not wanting to bother getting a tractor out to help. I pay for it later but as long as I accomplish my goal, I'm ok with a little pain. 😂😂😂

    • @tractorman4461
      @tractorman4461  Місяць тому +1

      Yeah, but it was all light hearted. Well...mostly anyway. The cool thing about staying busy is you almost never get sore. 'Almost' applies a bit loosely in this case. But yes, sometimes its easier to just go ahead and do it by hand. If the load was all bent, twisted and knotty, the tractor would have been the first choice no matter what. These were mostly all easy rollers. That's why the only two crooked ones were all the way on top.

      I usually have two with me. One with a longer handle for leverage. I needed it for sure on a couple of them. Yes, these two loads were pretty good for sure. I think we got a better stacked and packed load on the dump trailer for my sons woodpile though.

      Earlier last week I had that same delimma. So I doubled up on the load to make it in one trip just so the second trip back was only for the tractor/grapple. I'm thinking I was a little overloaded. But I have new rubber on the truck AND trailer.

    A bit before midnight and I’m wide awake, in slumber five hours so I need a break!
    I feel very rested but it’s only at twelve, so it’s 44 I’m intending to delve.
    Me poem may not be taught in the schools, it may only be linger in the mind of a fool.
    So I’m punching the buttons and makin some words, from my huge brain a thinkin the size of a bird.
    And on me screen I’m watching a guy, crawlin on a stack piled high!
    The Missus is givin him a rant, as he stands there a holdin his mighty cant.
    Careful of twistin yer aching back, or I’ll take me switch and give you a crack!
    But I can do he said with a slant, I’ll do it myself with this mighty cant!
    After all, the Tractorman said, but Missus exclaimed you might wind up in bed!
    He rolled off a persimmon with care, without messing up his underware!
    Get the grapple his lady exclaimed, but I can do it with this, said man of 44 fame!
    And the logs rolled off one by one, as 44 was a movin his buns!
    The grapple resting but logs fallen down, and 911 ready with his lady around!
    We men of old a doin some work, need our Ladies around so we aren’t not a jerk!
    So after this effort a writen this poem, I am not sleepy it might go on.
    And Tman 44 unloading so fast, he was moving along not resting his ,,,,,back!
    It’s time to stop I ain’t makin sense, within these words from my mind that is dense.
    As the sun gets ready to rise with dew drippin, in your direction I’ll be Tippin and sipping!
    And remember, take it easy cuz ya know how ya are!
