Brush removal

We still had the piles of brush from the trees we whacked in our back yard until yesterday afternoon. I took the afternoon off to take it all to the transfer station. 8 truck loads of brush taken down. I got a pretty good method put together to speed it up, but it still took all afternoon. My arms are scraped up and look like I was shooting up from all the pine needle stabs. But my truck has officially been put to work.
On about my 6th trip I backed in, turned off the truck and was almost done unloading when some old man that was waiting in line behind me came walking up to me, I was wondering if he thought he was going to speed things up by helping or what, but then he pretty much yells "You must get your gas cheap to leave that thing running when you unload it" I respond "It isn't running" He responds "I said you must get your gas pretty cheap to leave that thing running." I respond loudly so he can hear me "IT RUNS ON WATER." He looks at me confused for a minute and then responds "I'll be damned" and walks back to his truck. I will let someone else explain it to him.
Last night Krystal and I went to the Dome parking lot and she got some good experience driving the truck. She was really not looking forward to learning to drive a stick, but she did REALLY well, and I was most impressed.
