    It’s crazy that you’ve been on this job for one day and it looks considerably better , all the cuts are pulled so much sharper and everything just looks more uniform. Chris , I know the bad weather hits you in the wallet but maybe you can take a day or two off and share a order of tater rounds with Winston?

    We've been getting his with feeder bands fron Ian since yesterday.
    Lots of wind, rain here just above the Florida Keys and some tornados up in Broward county.
    We'll make sure the Bealy Good pond gets lots of water to fill it up.

  • @theshadow4292

    Chris, I have lived on the Southeast Coast in the paths of hurricanes my whole life. As such, I have come to understand that like all of nature, Hurricanes do both good and bad, depending on the circumstances. (i.e.) The Ian Hurricane has devastated the center of Florida from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Ocean, which is the bad of nature. But, for others, the rain from Ian which will be a Tropical Storm as it travels near your neck of the woods, will be a blessing for people like you and Beasly. You will get the needed rain to wet the forest so that you can burn the piles of debris and your Home Farm and those at the Horse Farm while Beasly will get the water he needs to fill his huge 5-acre pond. That is the Good of the storm. But you will also get the Bad as well, on projects that you are currently working on becoming a muddy mess which either prevents you from working or will make your life miserable while you try to work. Just a thought from a fan of many years.

  • @tomcarr1358
    @tomcarr1358 Год назад +1

    One day , perhaps in the winter when it is too wet to move dirt, it would be nice to see all the ponds you created in the last year or so in their finished state and full of water. Perhaps if you have recordings of the sites before work started it would be very interesting to see ' before and after'. Also to hear from you about soil/dirt qualities you require to make pond or lakes containment reasonably water tight and the grading of materials/dirt for berms, banks and pond/reservoir floors. Shortage of clay in some parts of the UK obliges farmers to use butyl sheeting to line artificial irrigation lakes in an area which may not have more that 12 ins of rain annually yet expects good yields from potatoes, sugar beet and some vegetables. Grain/cereal crops are seldom irrigated. Your drone sequences are marvellous for orientation of the larger sites.

    Yeah so far south like Sarasota Port Charlotte Fort Myers they got whacked north of their Tampa Bay north we got so far we haven't only gotten you know rain and Squall lines come through but in our power still on so far it's not like Irma we didn't have no 50 ft trees go flying by the air or power out for 3 weeks but I'd say we got pretty close to 8 inches of rain and we're supposed to get anywhere from 15 to 24 in this area well we're sending it North through you guys you can spend some time with IAN. We've also heard there's five to six feet of water in Fort Myers town yeah Tampa Bay was drained mud flats the water got all pushed out again like the that one other hurricane it's a real odd thing to see

      Yeah our power went off about an hour ago and are Transformer blew up so hopefully it's not 3 weeks this time to get our power back on at least it's cool out it's not that not that hot but later on the day since that storm pulls out the humidity and the heat will come back that'll be fun I hear people in Fort Myers the water came up almost three stories high where Tampa Bay and up here at Hudson the water left the high and dry out as far as you can see 40 ft depth water it's down to Mud now later on when the storm passes over by East Coast to water will come back but that's an odd thing I'll tell you almost like a tidal wave type of thing where the water goes out and then comes back in

    Hey Chris, I've been watching a long time now. I moved to 200 acres earlier this year and I'm having 160 cleared. I've got a lot of white oak stumps to get rid of now and land to clear as the loggers don't exactly leave "cleared" land. What size excavator would you recommend? 200 or 300 or as much as I can afford? The pine stumps won't be an issue. It's the Oak stumps that are going to be a challenge. I appreciate any knowledge you can convey.
