Boys N Toys

I remember as a kid that we used to play with Tonka trucks and bulldozers and lots other toys. Somewhere in the family pictures (I'll probably never see it again) is a picture of me sitting on Edie Pilla's bulldozer (or could be a backhoe) in St Louis area.

So to keep you counters out there wondering what we are doing now-a-days, well I am again using bulldozers to have fun in the sun in the Ozarks.

Here are a few pictures to let you know what kind of fun

watchout Viola, here comes the dozer to do some of this



we're coming to take you away hey-hey

of course this is the final result



Yeah it's a CAT 963 and that bucket is huge...




now that the 1,380 feet of fence row is cleared of heavy overgrowth and trees, the pond work can begin. I am now delegated to supervisory role to watch the dozer start digging topsoil (which is for sale) and make the pond expanding project come to reality. The dozer is that deep and is still removing topsoil......
a join project to use local people who are hurting for work....
hey maybe Billy or Roy can get me some "earmark money" to help with expenses......





Anyway, helping a friend out in his time of need, well that is the real meaning of

CELEBRATE LIFE.

and helping a friend out in a time of need is what
CELEBRATEING LIFE is all about.....

does anybody remember Roy Weaver..?
took me many a year to understand why the Bear hired somebody else to build a corral that we could have done ourselves....or why we gave away 100+ bales of hay several times a year...

Good Job Tom and Viola...

Thank you for being in a position to be the people that you are...

CELEBRATE LIFE
