Little open trench action today. we had multiple trenches to dig so I had a bunch of the crew out here learning to run the equipment today. Great spot to learn with not a whole lot you can mess up . No buildings to clip, no vehicles to maneuver, no overhead power to worry about. Just drop the bucket in there and learn the controls. Smooth and steady, son!

Started at 8am. This is 11am. Hand demolition of a concrete septic tank. Surprisingly, septic tanks are incredibly hard to crush and demolish due to the amount of rebar they install in them. Even with a machine, these things don’t just implode on themselves. Always takes a bit longer than you’d anticipate.

Well, definelty didn’t bid this one high enough 🤦‍♂️-haha . Too steep for equipment, so hand job it was. Block by block, straight up the hill. At hour 8 of climbing stairs carrying chunks of heavy concrete, you start to remember your own revisions scratching a few dollars off thinking the bid sounded high. Well, that was dumb. But we Brought in all the Guys and they absolutely crushed it. The guys skiooed leg day at the gym this week, and still made gains! Follow along for the next few days to see the progress.

Man! Gods paint palette was straight fire tonight!! What a show and a great reminder to slow down and enjoy the simple things. One of my boys and me slapped some golf balls at the range this evening and then had a job to check out on the summit. We got to the summit and there was a sunset watch party happening in the parking lot at the gas station. So spectacular and fun to see so many people pushing pause to enjoy the heck out of it! Thank you Lord for this evenings gift! Just wanted to share in case you missed it!

Doesn’t look that challenging until you’ve tried have to do it. What you coming at this with? A sawzall? A grinder? A multitool?! What you got?! We found a way to use a 18v die grinder with a diamond blade. Never dulls. It cuts and grinds all in one. Hit the edge of the concrete box? Unlike a traditional grinding wheel, Not problem. It does a great job. Just a little pro-tip we’d like to share and Hopefully that helps someone out there! Right tools for the right problems! Yezzir.

Nothing sounds worse than thick tree branches running down the sides and roof of your $400,000 septic truck. Fun little remote cabin up on the summit. One thing with pumping septics is you get to see all the cool off grid cabins and compounds on remote lakes with killer vistas. Some of the properties I’ve been to are completely hidden and are absolutely unreal! This one shares a private alpine lake with a few adjacent cabins. Drive right past it all the time and never knew it or the lake existed!
