    A simple side note… As a New Mexican used to gigantic topo scales, one of the things that's remarkable to me about many of these episodes are the drives through rural Pennsylvania towns. The roads are so narrow and the houses right on top of those roads. Pretty remarkable driving, Sam.

    I was a conductor on a work train that had a low center flat car. We hauled equipment on the great salt lake in 1983 when it was flooding. First thing the foreman for Helms Construction was to have the new operators side load a Cat 345 on the steel deck of that low boy flat. Steel on steel half the track hanging off the side made a tough load. More than one walked away, it made you pucker. Trial by fire for sure. Matt unloading reminded me of that. You guys are great

    Also, you know what would be neat? If you had a contraption that would let you add pressure to a hydraulic system indepentent of the dozer itself. If you could add pressure to lift the ripper, for example, and then lock that pressure off to keep the ripper (or other implements) off the ground until you let said pressure back out. Some sort of portable hydralic pump? Some sort of way to hook into the excavator's system?

    Being from your area of Pennsylvania you can have that cold weather the military brought me here to Southern California and when we need to wear a hoodie that’s cold to us. If I want to see snow I can see Mt Baldy from my front yard and it is about a one hour drive to the snow from my home. Congratulations on the subs and keep the adventures coming Sam. Also you drove through my hometown of Canonsburg and great shots of going down 980 towards Muse and Cecil Twp. Sam handle that tight left turn great in Canonsburg and then from 980 to 50 under the trail bridge. I remember when the old train bridge was there.

Also ran and repaired them. Then 10 years ago got some Brain Tumors. Had to retire. Enjoy every day that you can do what you Enjoy. But Don’t miss out on Family. Your Kids go up real Fast. Keep up the Videos. I learned more on RUclips than The School of Hard Knocks.
