  • I’m sure Chris also had an extensive Wish List and his Work Ethic and the Fact he is so Conscientious helped both he and his Uncle start purchasing the Equipment they would need to become even more Productive. It’s Obvious there isn’t any wasted Motion when the Equipment is in use. Efficiency is Mandatory and the Difference between Success and Failure. Smooth Operator!👍

  • Great job Maybe I'm missing something. Could you have cleaned the ditch and piled it on the ground where the wheel loader was. The wheel loader could have scooped it up and kept making trips while you kept clearing the ditch. It appeared that you were always waiting for the loader to come back so you could dump your bucket into his and keep the area clean.
