I'm still alive and trying to deal with a lot from funeral this Sunday coming up to picking up a heavy equipment trailer on the route down south. This round I won't be leaving empty handed, tractor has been secured.
Been moving animals around, Memorial day came and gone that didn't help much.
Sitting there waiting for excavator to be moved into town and the guy with the hot tub drove by and said they have to drive to the next town over to get water and a light went on in my head. I have now sold over 1500 gallons of water to him and got others lined up. Picked up two more customers who just moved out here, one wants to buy a backhoe I bought from a widow that I didn't need, but was to fulfill a joke I made with her husband before he passed. Lastly the city wants to fine me again for obnoxious weeds that go up to my knees, so I took the excavator into town and turned the property into a mud lot with 50 gallons of RoundUp applied. Court this Thursday for round two and I need to make 1600 miles by Sunday.
Usually charge me $400 to move my machinery, that went to $700 plus $20 transaction fee, I bought the equipment trailer in Kansas.

People buy land with no water and no well? Maybe you should get a well drilling rig to add to your machinery.
I didn’t realize that you had to hire your equipment moved. Buying the trailer will be a good investment. If the local rate is $700, you could undercut that and add moving equipment to your business.
Who on the city council did you make so angry, that they have to take you over the coals for every minor issue?
You have a lot on your plate right now, I’m glad you are getting your father’s tractor.
You will make the 1600 miles and be on time. Thanks for checking in.

Can you go to another part of the state to take the test?
No more equipment on the road! With your own trailer they can go pound their head on a tree. Can’t stop you!

Our county sheriff hates what he calls trash holes. He has game cameras set up in favorite dumping places and he comes down hard on trash holes. Could you put up game cameras to catch who is dumping the trash or would the cameras just get stolen?

Good to see you check in. Figured it was something townie related. Geeze, if a bird 💩 on that property you're going to get blamed for that as well. Forgot you were dealing with the funeral as well. Good news that you've got the tractor coming back with you. Safe travels.

Alright I have finally got to the root of the problem. What is going on is there is a group of people that drive around looking for anybody's place that isn't in compliance with the towns codes and reporting them. Last year alone in a town of 8k residents 168 citations were handed out. The list of witnesses are of those people in the group. So with that said it's my turn. I'm going to make it my mission to watch their places and report on them.
They don't know what schit storm they have coming.
NOW THAT'S a great plan!!!
Payback time!! 👍👍
