We've had some fairly good wind storms here over the last few weeks and it's caused the cedar trees to drop a lot of small, dead branches all over the place. This last week has been cold and dry here but it's about to change so yesterday I borrowed my parents leaf blower to blast all the crap off the roofs and out of the gutters before the rain comes. Once I was doing it, I realized how much there was all over the yard so today was "fire day" to clean it all up. Of course what started as a small project turned into two machine piled fires in two different parts of the yard(they're still ripping and I need to go stoke them again), some clearing with my mini excavator, and of course some RC time. When I first started with the excavator my intention was only to move a couple of rotten pieces of wood and flatted out a small lump of dirt. The next thing I knew I was knocking over small trees and making bigger fires!lol Once the major work was done I decided to bring out the Tigercat for a test of it's new rear drive motor. I am impressed with it's increased power and can't wait for the second motor to arrive!

I'm pretty proud of my machine operating skills in this one!
