That’s what I’m thinking. I’ve been on jobs where if you pop a 4-inch diameter cover off of a water valve 100’ off in the lawn you have to cone the area off.

Yeah I usually get mad at how many parking spaces are cut off during the slightest amount of work :)

I won’t in the future.

Better a small inconvenience than death!

Those old cars and trucks had a mechanical fuel pump mounted to the side of the engine. Pretty easy to R&R, especially if an inline engine versus a v8.

Nowadays with in tank electric fuel pumps, the job is a pain.

but was she wearing a mask? if not the another Covid-19 death!

I don’t know why they don’t have access to these loaders in the Walking Dead. I guess because they would take out the zombies in pretty short order.

Loaders, combines and hay swathers and hay rakes.

Many are nostalgic for old cars from the 50s, but they forget or never knew how often they broke down, had flats, overheated, etc. etc. But on the plus side, many problems were relatively easily fixed.

First rule of thumb when lying on the beach post flag and around dune buggies too.

Maybe she was already dead. How could she not hear a tractor coming?

Transient = homeless = addict/stoner. Call it what it is.
