Life goes on, and so does the Garbage.Once back on the job, it was necessary to work 2 day's routes in 1 day. This requires a real scramble, rush rush rush, and don't even think about a break. The crews had to work over a bit, but they made it finally.
The Fuzz started the next day with a half a load already on the truck, and no air pressure. Fortunately, our Ace Mechanics got things straightened out pretty quickly. One of the other trucks was not so fortunate. And so once again one of the faithful old trucks was taken out of retirement. These older trucks are a little slower and require a 2 man crew on the back to dump the cans. So as each truck finishes it's own route, they converge on what's left. So it was another long day for The Fuzz and His Friends. Then as the Weary Workers were heading home, one of those poor over worked fellows accidentally tried to kill The Fuzz by backing a pick up truck over him and his motorcycle. By the Grace of God, he was spared, with only some minor damage to his front fender. So far it's been quite a week, and I hope you will forgive me for not keeping up with everything.
You may wonder what all this has to do with a pile of firewood. Nothing. But these nice people cut down a dead pine tree, rented a splitter, and neatly stacked it all out on the curb in the hope that someone would take it away. The Fuzz was glade to oblige. Some folks are too stuck up to burn pine wood. The Fuzz has always found it to burn fine, and cold weather is coming for sure.
And don't forget about The Fuzz's Inflammatory Election Year Politics!

Whats wrong with pine???
glad the cycle and fuzz are ok
L- A lot of folks claim it will set your chimney on fire.
I've never had a problem with that, but I clean it regularly anyway.
Because of the pine pitch? Or sap. Or whatever it is called?
Are you slated to get some rain? Hanna is in your general area, so you should get some rain out of it.
We didn't get a drop.
