Man that machine sure is quiet!

That’s what I was thinking, clearly when a tree falls in the woods with that thing it doesn’t make a sound.

It was on the way to San Joseph bay, not to far out of Port Hardy.
And I lived in Hardy for a short while to work at the copper mine.
But lived all over BC

Yep about all you honestly hear is the tree feeding through the head they’re way too quiet but it sure makes it nice to run for 8 to 10 hours a day.

It must be a John Deere thing.



This machine is really quiet inside too. It’s Cat counterpart is annoying as hell, even with all the cab doors and windows closed.

I found a nest of giant hornets today. Pretty sure they’re the European variety, as the Asian Murderer apparently has problems making it across the plains and they’re fairly aggressive. Either way, I was swarmed by a nest of ground hornets a few weeks ago, and needless to say I did not want to mess with these.



I mean, look at the size of the stinger on that thing!

If they were ground hornets, yeah. I do it all the time. These things live up in dead trees. It’s probably going to get wasp sprayed and I’ll smash the snot out of it with the hoe in the morning. I just went home since the hoe that came out didn’t have a thumb and I was not going to get swarmed by giant hornets.

I just thought you were a bit closer to were 'President' lives, is all. Think he's in Peachland BC.
San Joseph bay is got to be one off the most beautiful places on earth. Maybe because nobody else is there. A couple km walk in from end of the road. Literally the end of the road.
