  • Ya gotta love a client that will jump in when needed to help with the job yet respect you enough to let you do the job without interfering. Resetting the track and shifting the cleared brush helped you get as much accomplished today as you did.

When he is done with training, he will be running equipment similar to what you are using. Watching you has helped me understand what his job serving our country will be. Love your channel! 😊 thanks!

    • except your kid will be clearing land where brown people once lived with out paying taxes because their families owned that land forever... until the us army lands there then the brown people are "relocated", "given jobs", and made to pay tax... that they can't afford... so they lose everything... thank your son for me... for killing what is left of the world we live in.

  • I worked the same sort of job in the 1970's. The ditch was an old irrigation canal. The company I was working for screened the sand we dug out to use it for cement. The most amazing thing happened! That irrigation ditch was full of old bottles from the 1800's. I would stand in front of the screening machine and, boom! Every couple of minutes an old bottle would pop out! I gathered hundreds of them!
