Yeah there is plenty of of room for more equipment and operators. It's too bad no one lives nearby.

Site looks great Reg. I'd say use some of that backyard pond liner material and you'll always have a spot to fill the water truck from. 
And you'll get no more flame from me. I have a new explanation for times like these. " it's a means to an end " or. " I want to play in my park with RC's , not build it with them! ".  |
Haha, yes I do have it bad! I need to sort out the pond this weekend as it's supposed to start raining again Monday. Once it has water in it things will be more difficult to "adjust". I agree with your quotes. I get as much enjoyment out of running the fullsize equipment so using it to build a play area for the RC's is a win win. Once the area is roughed in I like to drive around hauling loads of gravel here and there doing touch ups and other small work. Digging the pond with RC's would have never happened anyway as my mini would hardly dig the ground using the cleanup bucket. It is packed hard!

So , now I recal you have a rather large pond on the property!?!?? Some logging from that skidded to the log transport to a dock to a ship to a cross pond location to a mill to make lumber for more bridges,,,,, I guess I could go on and on lol!!! This is the addiction of what we all belong to!!!
Hey reg, go big or go home right?!?! Lol!! Looks good brother!! And Mario, you got the east coast knocking on his door!!
Ya both have me trying to plan the ultimate road trip!!! Keep it up.  |
Haha, I'm ok taking heat from you two. I know when I dish it back you guys can take it!
Yes we have a bigger pond in our yard. Originally, this is where I started my play area but it was too much of a pain to move everything down there from the shop. By the time I moved a few toys I would run out of ambition for it. Lou was trying to convince me to haul logs from the new play area down hill to the big pond a few days ago. It would be sweet as there is enough room down there to dump into the water, sort and boom the logs, then tow them around. We'll see....
It would be great to have some company here so I hope you can make the trip someday!

Yeah I've been trying to get Lou and Jason out here for weeks but when they're free I'm busy and vice versa. Hopefully one day we can have an organized event here.
Oh, I almost forgot. I hauled the first couple of loads on the new section of road yesterday. I think last evening was the nicest it's been all year. Warm but not too hot and not too many bugs. It was beautiful! Too bad no one was here to enjoy it with me...
I had to hog it all to myself
