I don't think his boss knows what he is in for. Chris may not be in the best shape, but he is strong like bull.

well I have been out in the woods.. doing more work.. basically clearing up damaged trees etc. It is pretty wild out.. quite windy.. and dark clouds.. with occasional sun.

I was also trying to clear out a snag in the brook.. but I can't reach it all.

It would be nice when the water is lower.. to walk up the brook with hip boots on.. and cut and clear out.. all the stuff in the water.

Home from another great day at work! :roll:

Going to go help a friend from work with his lawn care business this evening. He should be here soon to pick me (and my lawn tractor) up.
