    went fishin twice this week.....a buddy went with me today.......great time fishin....no, wait.........catching!!!!! had fresh fish, crappie, for supper.....temps were in the low 70,s. we deserved it tho.....i rented a track hoe for this weekend, and he ran it for me. put in a new field line for the septic system......filled one of many septic tanks on the place, removed about 25 stumps, then went to his horse barn and he spent about 3 hrs or so removing a big ass stump!!! after the first 30 minutes he said he wished he had never started it!!! the roots were huge and purple! never seen purple before,,,,after a bit they turned black, and were hard as a rock.....

    That sounds like a lot of work. Glad you had a good day to make up for it.

    Do you guys have to get permits to dig new septic tanks or you just go out and did a hole, reminds me of the old cesspool types. :D

    Them roots sound like they were getting petrified. :eek:
