Congratulations. I saw a program on Discovery channel about swamp logging, and that is some serious work. Glad you survived that and are moving on to bigger and better things (and more money to buy more toys)!

Thanks guys! Its been a long hard road gettin here but I think it will all be worth the ride. First day went OK. It seems I've been working my up to this all my life. I loved logging, was tuff sometimes but I really enjoyed it. Swamp logging is extremely challenging. My last tractor was a 726 Tigercat with a 24in saw head and 60in wide tires all around. That thing would go anywhere! It was like driving a monster truck all day long. I watched a show the other nite called Extreme Logging and it really carried me back. I miss logging but the pay sucked. Now I've gotta go out and buy a whole new set of tools for work. We have to furnish our own tools.

Well, the first week went very well! Worked overtime 2 days, but I'm working with some really great guys. Everybody's been very helpful and supportive. I went out and bought a new set of tools Saturday. We get a 200 dollar tool allowance every year so I'll be hittin the Sears store often. I love gettin new tools! I think I've made a good move. I could'nt be happier!
