Root Grapple

Rented a Bobcat 82″ Root Grapple for Memorial Day weekend (get 3 days for the price of 2) to move a massive pile of wood and stumps that was pushed into a 75′ X 50′ X 15′ high pile by a Cat. This is an awesome piece of equipment. Perfect for the job. The attachment weighs 1,200 lbs.
Look ma, I can do the splits!

Pains at the Pump
May 25, 2007
Wall Street Journal, Page A14
It’s Memorial Day weekend and the start of the summer driving season, so naturally it’s time for Congress to grandstand against $3-a-gallon gasoline. And right on cue, the House passed legislation this week to criminalize gasoline “price gouging,” whatever that is. (Does that mean every Congressman is a felon?) Perhaps this is all designed to distract the public from Congress’s own role in raising gas prices.
Under the anti-gouging law, service station owners could face up to 10 years in prison if they dare to raise their prices too much when supplies are low. Representative Bart Stupak, the Michigan Democrat who sponsored this scheme, said the vote would determine whether Members “side with Big Oil” or “side with consumers who are being ripped off at the gas pump.” Who elects these guys?
The inconvenient fact is that there’s no evidence of price rigging by Big Oil or the tens of thousands of independent service station owners across

Gentle Spring rain on the pond.

One of the best places to sit during a gentle Spring rain is on the dock.
Best fishing hole around.

Below is the dock that I built on our pond. It’s a great place to relax and fish. We’re catching large mouth bass in the 5+ lb range and catfish up to 10 lbs. The small bluegill and frog population is getting thinned down from what it’s been the last couple years (which is good).
