A heartbreaking week for us in the woods

so this is on the way to the woods this morning the river but hacci Barda hacci whatever you want to call it is way over there and it's then fluid pushing water across this paved road right here my gosh if I told you the Corolla can make it in front of me I know my real hair can make it yeah but on this rough road it's probably not focusing but the dadgum temperature it's 36 degrees hearing this morning it is April the 15th for god sakes and Mississippi now it's 36 t we had a frost this morning too I think they're going to pack the road in for me this morning here [Music] so that's actually number four number one was in front of me this morning going in here there's O'Dare that's where I was part yesterday they told me he's gonna cut all the trees down the day you're out here [Music] Hey look at the smoke coming out of Kevin's upper this morning golly though tier twos both L they'll blow it out when they go hit things still puffing it out now I won't do that [Music] [Applause] I've got a tier 3 [Music] both of them are 6.8 layers who Ron smelly or if again go over me this listen I think he's getting something going on you go call charity we got something wrong that's wrong whew coming out of that thing right there probably freaking we put that electric motor yesterday probably the father injector pulls a certain he cranked it it was it was missing a new one that smoke came clear that when I stopped when I stopped it while he gave he started it back in there smoking clear to LuAnn I got where I could smell like smell raw fuel the end I think something's going hold airs your car on this sure got issues we're gonna ride with big freak here go get my picture I'm all right way you Frank I call frigging big Frank ain't no beggar in the ninth a peacock here we go let's get right around here with my truck here are you as they lined up at the paper field steel the scale still right now here that Edda yes but at least it's got a good even rhythm big three got it his daughter got a tree when he forgets other day whatever I forgot toner Hey nothing to do so different on the Helen maybe from time by it how're your just go take at least now summer Hey I don't Oh yeah Kevin they're working on the processor there so the is the injector pump on that thing and so they got one order be here in the morning I did light 11 loads therefore and I know who is so that was good I got several piles cleaned up - got that done so we'll stick a pump on it and we'll get back to rolling once it gets here in the morning - all right let's go see what else we can get into today so I hadn't been over here been down there dealing with Darren he's got her back together they're almost in here putting last finishing touches over I just messed him up there he is Melanie putting the rest upon them back on you gotta take a few things off of it you get to think too bad it's just a precarious position you got to get into to work on it you're talking about your knees all get man up anytime I go - real bad on the tread plate stuff right there I keep a set of kneepads and knee pads on wore man eight there were fair waiting go and get up on that metal and just stay on it no don't bother I picked up more than pads like what you're talking about at the Napa store and here a few weeks ago they work pretty good two tracks yeah cause you know you ain't moving around just kick it around if you gotta move just kick it around where are you gonna go to and you got to get used to and then you'll be good to go [Music] there we go [Music] [Applause] yeah in picture yeah hit more time let's make sure I'm pretty sure though pumping that raw fuel out of time alright so show us on who so let's get it's out of time right now it's out of time it's our one home one hold two three go so you got you got three you got a choice the bad thing is all right the bad thing is you don't know which one you've done when you slide it back you ain't gonna know which one you do but then will you know if that one don't work if you got to go to the third one the end well you know which one the third one okay that's reason why I don't throw with these things man [Music] that bark right there all that in there red makes a heck of a mess okay [Applause] it's still not Hollen occurring y'all see if he hits it again he just tried and I didn't even it didn't even hit at all I don't know if he's just letting a few phone run over here Karen's ever talking to him you still pumping fuel out the exhaust air and see you mm-hmm more we need to be running all right so whatever company ever bills something that will work that it'll go he's gonna win that's just kind of my thoughts on this whole - he'll look at him what's for dinner or lunch dear summer sausage from pretty neat company crackers need some cheese I didn't grab them cheesy this morning but you talking about some good for this right here this stuff is divine me and Jill and the girls we have we have moved through some dear in the last month I'm talking about we have a theme dear me alright so I'm just gonna stand right here this is uh this is bad y'all yesterday morning the processor the injector pump went out on it yeah when Kevin turned the key to crank it what you seen there's a beginning to this video and so they had to air one in that was weaned him we as did morning when that happened so they heard one end where it would be here today and I got it and you know I'm I'm not a mechanic I don't plan to be never will be I don't want to be a mechanic and that's reason why we pay massive amounts of money to companies like that right there to fix this stuff and take care of it for us the injector pulling up on it some I don't know about them I mean I know they got to be in time and things like that and something the injector pump inside he ended up getting out of time and it has to be put back in time with a computer and so basically what that means is that pump that brand-new pump is ruined and John Deere don't even want it back or anything which they won't be on us but so they're having to get another pump aired in here tomorrow which will be Friday so today is Thursday right now currently it is 1:55 and I have not loaded a truck and there will not be a truck loaded we were teasing I got 15 worked yesterday yesterday I had enough to load 11 loads and that was at hand side if we knew that this was going to work the way that it did we would have went ahead yesterday afternoon grabbed the tiger-cat 8:22 with a 622 V wartime we would have had it here and been processing with it yesterday evening and all day today while that machine is down when he realized that was going to take place so we're sitting here dead in the water and so money wasn't raining out where T's D and I loaded we st were down the day the meals ain't taking tomorrow well the main meals not taking tomorrow and I already knew that was gonna probably going to happen and so we really needed today to get some wood to the mill so we're at 26 loads for the week and they got another pump come in been here about 9:30 in the morning and get it throw down real quick and get us back going there you know things happen and I mean it ain't nothing nothing you can do about it I mean you know the it's just bad I mean this is it's just bad but so that's where we're at right now so we'll just see what - what tomorrow brings and just go from there of course we can't we can't haul five loads upon poco anymore I can do that and I can load like I think three or four loads of hardwood but that's really not a drop in the bucket to what we what we kind of need you know but it would be better than nothing but it also sucks sitting out here all day not doing anything - so there you go right there logging is tough logging is tough it's not for the faint of heart especially not right now you know we can bring this piece of heaven out right here what if I dropped your camera [Music] right there slim cuz piece of that on top you hate um beat your brains out trying to get that's perfection right there wait time like a camera no your time any no how about the the comb break head right - I thought you meant my photography skills well will Hut I hadn't looked at it yet so Jill's doing it some green beans and then we got some leftover the chicken and then uh there's a things that stick back there - we're gonna knock it out and I lay that coronary right there while the gay made it from the simples meal : meal then the simples sciples he'll call me up in cycles mill down there - cow Mississippi well thanks mom huh dizzy you just know y'all ready so for anybody calls me out on the bottom there it is right there [Music] trying to crank it now it's a 11 o'clock you probably taking a second to get it get it bled out all there out of it oh and this is the next day also this is actually Friday now so this video is went over a three day period here guys there guys hold your breath so it's running she's got the see the wheels on the head are spinning right now in warmup modes what it's dude it's running those wheels right there circulating at all alright she's ready to go then at the at the end of the video here I'll explain what what went on with the injector pump what what uh what made it get out of time and all we'll watch him run a few trees right quick see what it see what it does here [Music] but this this has been a huge mess for us this uh has cost us a lot of money so all I can all I can unload right now is five loads of plant put wood and then I was gonna lose five loads for Mundy it's what I was gonna do so the trucks get started off right Lindy morning and that's all we can do what about what about I ready for a mechanic's class 101 right here dumb old studying on this thing yin and a moment try to explain it to you know as simple as I possibly can that pump fits a lot of different John Derry engines right there on all the other John during engines the pump has a key chaffed on it so if you'll go back and you look in the video to where the the black collar was on it where he was spinning it to put the tool in the ones with the key Chasse you can actually pull that collar off and stick it back on we're gonna call to the collar may be a time in ring I don't know what that gets called a lot of stuff I just run stuffs what I do but on that motor right there with that pump the shaft is a smooth shaft so you can take and undo the nut right there and then you can take and spin this collar in any degree or a piece of a degree in the entire 360 degree rotation around that shaft so what happened was was this got taken off as soon as that nut was broken loose and this thing was moved just a micro the pump was shot at that point the only way that you can turn this back to the pump shaft is on the computer on the beach for John Deere nobody around here can even can even touch it or anything so at that point you have in Eveleigh ruin that pump and so that's that's what happened there's no no's right there you don't take this part off right here so anyhow that deal right there cost us a lot of money we've had a lot of trouble with that injection system on that machine John Deere's tried to say it's our fuel they come out three or four years ago or five years ago we were having trouble and we finally put a brand new pump on it and it's been the longest running pump that we had it ringing for three years they actually come out and they took a fuel sample from the tank on the machine and I filled up a bottle about that tall send it in it came back it was fine nothing was wrong with it they kept they wanted to they wanted to pin it on us you know there was something wrong with us well we've filtered a fuel twice we were in additive and all the fuel that we that we run you ran we're going to active your round it's costly but that's what we do and so nothing's wrong with a few or anything like yet they wanted to put a two thousand dollar filtration system on it at our expense there we wasn't gonna do that either because there was nothing wrong with the fuel so why you know why do that so uh the what it cost us was was the downtime we used the 15 loads we need c11 sigh put us at 26 and then we were Kevin and run the leanest he didn't run Thursday we got back going Friday at 11 o'clock about 11:30 time Kevin tracked in place and like I all the tools put up and all that stuff like and he got to running I could load five loads yesterday Friday to the paper mill but there was we didn't have time to running to try to get that I got two loads of paper would pump fluid into the paper mill and then I loaded all five trucks for Monday morning so we got 28 loads this week is what we got heartbreaking is an understatement we've run into several problems here late lately with multiple dealers on things that just couldn't quite be figured out and when each day that goes by when you've got a mechanic out there it's going to cost you twenty five hundred dollars and you know if you have somebody out there for three days I mean you didn't like they can't can add up quick but we needed to be running we right now you're so limited and we don't know whether Emile is fixing to snatch the plug out or not right now so that's the deal on that nothing we can do about it we won't be liable for the pumps or anything like that of course they came out and took another fuel Centreville yesterday you know so it's going to be tried to the PN back on us again and all that but we're running the same fuel that we running everything and we're not having any trouble with any other machine and keep in mind I just said it's a previous fuel simple that they took came back so frustrating is an understatement me dad and Kevin and they're all pretty disappointed in in this deal be sure if you're gonna buy a piece of equipment it doesn't matter whether it's piece of equipment a car truck anything what a tractor whatever make sure and do your homework and if the dealer that sells the brand purple people eater is the one that's going to give you the best service and has the best of everything the parts the whole nine yards or anything like it you better go buy the purple people eaters what you better go buy because if you go over here to the other dealer sells the aardvark you just messed up no I mean so appreciate all y'all watching and we'll get back out at this next week I was supposed to go down to soso Mississippi today which is Saturday got up this morning at forward to go down there's rain in here looked at the radar man it was a red blob down there and just canceled it you know I was going down there on my own to do some work down there I hooked up and talk to some people through the Baptist Association and everything to get me on point on on some addresses where I could go go in there and help people out and everything third largest tornado in the United States down in South Mississippi lay on Easter Sunday two and a quarter miles right wide and ran for I think 80 miles wiped out everything people down there and so I was gonna go down there and work all day today and all that fell through I wasn't going down there in the rain miserable man and I feel so bad for those people so there may be another opportunity assuming y'all know some things being organized and all you know donate my time my machine a few all that stuff songs to come down there and work and help and do things like that and uncover a lot of ground I can cover a lot of ground quick and so hit me up you know cotton top three at yahoo.com there's a good possibility if we're rained out Mundy I will go down there Monday to so it's about 175 miles one way for me to go down there for here and I wouldn't Jill was going to go down there with me and just kind of just kind of watch over my shoulder and you know what I mean and just kind of be there for a runner for me and that stuff's very very dangerous to fool with in there so anybody's tender y'all be careful messing with that stuff but just I wouldn't even go to any work in the rain so uh appreciate all y'all watching we'll catch y'all later later tater
