That’s a lot of buckets. It’s gonna be so worth it in a year or two, though.

I love the workout you’re describing! It’s how I keep going too versus going to a gym ever since I first watched this favourite film’s montage magic:

I probably moved about 15-20 buckets of dirt today emptying the bed in my tent so I could switch back to SIPs. I thought it was a lot but I’m glad it wasn’t 121 buckets.

My outdoor season has come to a screeching halt. I’m so glad I don’t have any weed growing outdoors because there’d be nothing left but mold after this week with all this rainy mucky cold weather lol.

We literally found a company with a tiny truck, just so they could deliver some dirt as close as possible to where we needed it :joy::ok_hand:

I built a six car garage with an office above for a guy who had one, although I’m not sure it was a '62. It was the coolest truck I’ve ever seen!

It would be my new daily driver. Maybe some bull horns on the hood? Joking, that thing is perfect like it is.

Sweet!! Growing up a buddy had a mini… It was so low I could stick my arm out the window and drag a can of pop on the ground :joy::joy::joy:

The truck we hired had a pretty close width, and a dumper :joy::joy::metal:

I used to run VWs, both beetles and vans. I had a '65 beetle for part of the time that I rafted logs. My boss was left executor of his aunt’s estate when she passed. She was the matriarch of the family, which meant she visited family members at their homes. Nobody, however, had visited her in her home for more than 30 years, and unbeknownst to anyone, she was a serious pack rat. Enough so that my boss hired three of our wives to run a storefront he rented to sell most of the stuff she had packed away.

Long and very crazy story short, one of the items that Erma had was a pair of water buffalo horns, much like these…

They were pretty fucking big, and my boss, Dick, had a great sense of humor! I don’t recall how much he wanted for the horns, but he said to me “If you let me mount them on your front bumper, they’re free!”

And I ask you, who wouldn’t go for an offer like that?!! I bit hard, and drove around with them mounted on my beetle for quite a while. They were eventually stolen.

I used to have a photo, but for the life of me I can’t find it.
