There goes the neighborhood . . .

We are quite certain that the neighbors talk about us. We have turned our street into a small metal yard- full of trucks, boats, snow machines, trailers (of all kind) and the occasional back-hoe or log truck may grace the alley or driveway on some days.

Even our friends have big trucks, boats and trailers . . . The street is never empty and the driveway always full.

Just in the last week we have run chain saws, gravel trucks, a back-hoe / bulldozer and a full size log-truck with arm in the yard. Glad we didn't pick a co-op neighborhood.

Last night while removing the fallen pine tree stump from the back corner we had the neighborhood over to watch. It's much better than prime time television and we figure that if they are having fun WITH us, they will be less likely to complain about the horse trailer in the street.

Shawn T. our resident heavy machinery guru and favorite logger-man is a pro with his log truck. The only "oops" last night was when he backed down the alley and pulled some 100 yards "or so" of cable with him.

I think we could hear someone screaming from their lazy chair down the street. The didn't need to see that 3rd overtime anyways. oh well, hockey season is over and he was probably watching porn anyhow.

Every single item you see in this photo is ours.

And every item you see in this photo is ours . . . (not pictured: 2 snow mobiles, snow mobile trailer, drift boat, full size raft, and accompanying trailers)

Look how happy Peter is with his chainsaw and log truck in his back yard! He needs more space for this kind of stuff.
