It was a fight with the sheriff coming out once, I laid down 5 loads. Namely in critical area with the last load. Blown a hydraulic line or I would have kept going and smoothed it out better. Having the camera saved my arse since they called saying I was pointing a rifle at them. What he didn’t say is he was calling me out for a fight and went to reach behind him pulling a cell phone out of his back pocket causing me to grab the rifle and I never pointed it at him.
High winds kept the drone grounded.

How can anyone be soo DAM#@D stupid to complain about someone improving the road at NO COST to them.... they have got to be the dumbest, most ignorant, STUPIDIST da#@ idiots on the earth....
Simple answer that can be answered with one word, me.
Anyone else doing it sure no problem, me doing it, nope. I don't put up with the dogs running in the middle of the road chasing us down, tree thefts, trespassing going where the F they wanted to go. Also I won't help them, let them free load off of me, or hang out with them.
When it comes to them thinking they own the place back here I'm the one saying no you don't.
Next up as the deputy told me today, she likes taking people to court. So that means she is versed in the court system.

Geeze. Most of us here have dirt roads to get to our homes. I’d love for you to do that. Though I can’t complain too much because truck loads of asphalt grinds appear and most everyone with a tractor pitches in to spread it.
What idiots.

I gave it an angry face because it’s such a waste of your time. I wish you lived on my road. The stretch in front of my place floods, gets potholes that could eat my little car, mud slicker than soap. I’ve called twice, commissioner says he’ll look into it and so far nothing has happened.

Oh I'm with you on the road problem with the county road and it's condition. Potholes that could eat a vehicle, when they "fix" it they grade it and shove the 3 plus inch random river rock back into the middle. Max speed 20 mph and you got 30 miles to get to town. Some places don't even have rock anymore, it's at the point of clay.
To make matters worse when the deputy came out he had a message for me directly from the county commissioner, keep my track loader off the county road I'm screwing it up. I drove 1250' with one track on the road since there is no room to get off the road, the tracks disappear within a couple of days and ag equipment drives over it no problem. Not loading up my 60k lb machine to drive it less than quarter of a mile or 5 miles down the road, I'm tracking it like it or not, dare you to stop me. I know the reason why is one person complained and I know who.
Thinking of dragging tires behind me or a I beam to erase my tracks.

My road got graded a month ago. Left big clods on side of road instead of putting it back on the road. In 3 places, piles of rock and dirt were left in the ditch, blocking water run off. Water has nowhere to go but in the road. The smart guy with skills retired. I don’t know what dummy is running the maintainer now, but he sucks.

I seen the grader once every few months here. Twice a year for anything past 10 miles from the interstate if we are lucky.

Here is the video I sent to the sheriff. Sometimes it’s best to just walk away. Almost got himself killed reaching back for that cell phone, told the sheriff I pointed the rifle at him. No deputy, I seen him reaching, grabbed it and put it back when I seen it was a cell phone.
