VAZZZZZOOM! SHAWN GOT THE BOB CAT STARTED…SAVE US ALL
Overcast sky and snow flying with the wind. A good day to stay in bed…but there was work to do.
Too much work to do. I wonder if I can record the day in pictures?
“All quiet here on the farm…snow on the ground…more snow in the air.”
“I think I’ll go down to the other place…got a load from Movie coming back.”
“Lunch at noon.”
“All hell turning loose down here.”
“I need the bob cat to get a load of machines to the barn”
“Not so fast…bob cat won’t go….wet gasoline maybe….damp and cold here which
is not good for electric starters.”
“I’ve got a five ton truck at the road with machines to get off, “
“Well look at what we are facing…
-8 to 10 double axle dump trucks with garden soil…
-a prefab swimming pool to load and get to West Toronto…
-a broken down Case bob cat
to load and get to a mechanic.”
”
“Try that Gas treatment…a fluid ….often works…”
“VAZZZZOOM…VAZZZOOM.”
“We are back in business….what comes first?”
“The guys at the road with the big drill press…”
And so the work began…continued until the sky got really dark.
