Default S&M Trucking is moving!!??

Not a done deal yet, pending sale of our current home, We are moving into a bigger house with a bigger yard and the house has a huge unfinished basement which means I get to join the group of people with indoor trucking space and play all winter long now!!!
So all things happen for a reason, I'm glad I built a quick, non permanent road in this backyard because now I have a 60X200 totally private yard to create a road network on. Not just a perimeter road. Can't wait to get started next spring


Mario

Thank you for all the best wishes..This was somewhat unexpected but you know a good deal only comes around once in a while. The chaos that has followed will hopefully be well worth it. Please keep your fingers crossed. It's a bigger house, bigger yard and potential galore. Here's a few pics of the yard I snapped the other night..There's room for a big garden, rc area, cabana, deck, and more...

Looks like there will have to be a fleet of RC's used for leaf removal! Mario, you better buy an excavator with a brush rake! Seriously though, it looks like a really nice backyard and the empty basement sounds great too! I hope it works out for you guys!

Where's the basement pics?

Is it a dirt floor / crawl space or a cement walls & floor?

I'm thinking I like the idea of a RC leaf rake, picker upper, ssh, Mario forgot there was a dog house-lol, the basement is poured concrete, the cabana is more like the bar, and of course we have room for visiting royalty.

How about a leaf blower, mounted on a tank or dozer chassis?
Cheers, Neil.

I was thinking, we need a tractor, like Travis big bud or the ford fw60 and build some kind of tow behind rake attachment with a rotating spiral drum like an auger to gather the leaves into windrows for easier pick up?

my uncle had one of these on the farm. I wonder if this would work with leaves??

Congrats on the bigger place, sounds like a winner all around. Of course the cabana is to sit comfortably to run your RC equipment and have a few drinks with or without umbrellas in them If you develop a good method for picking up leaves with RC equipment, make two at least 'cause I could use one too...Thanks in advance
