Man, that sounds like a good haul. I like to think it's your reward for helping that lady. Congratulations.

Hiram1,

You should have said I have better things to do, let the government cut down her tree and clean out her shed. See you went and did a good deed and got punished by having to haul two pick up loads away.

You might want to ask her sometime what happened to the guns that equipment was feeding. Let me know and I could bring a pick up and help haul some of them away.

Sir, your head and your heart are in the right place. It kinda restores my faith in Americans. And the American Spirit. Well Done!
