Almost as important as a good excavator, is good barbecue. Yesterday, my luck - within 150 yards of four of my stops was the legendary Center Point Pit BBQ. I've been coming here through the years since the mid 90s. Opelika, AL, is the only other place I've found a minced pork 'sammich,' served like this. They load a bun up and bring it out after being pressed on a toasting grill. Y'all, it's unique, and it's good. The service is always great, and I even made some connections on lunch break with a couple operators from a project in the area.

It was a great day for turning over some dirt!

One of the things I love about traveling Middle Tennessee is the beauty of the backroads. This picture was taken in Middle Tennessee on a fall day similar to what you would see right now, as we are just past the peak fall colors of our region.

It makes one look forward to hitting the road, for sure.

And the machines…

Spent my first day in the field with the one & only Wes Poor, today.

If you think bowling Green is booming you should see Clarksville!

Everywhere you look there are construction projects ongoing.

It’s going to be a great market for LiuGong North America equipment 💪🏼👊🏼

An unintended consequence of technology?

When music sales transitioned to $.99 online downloads, and now unlimited free or $9.99 streaming it killed revenue in that industry. It sure feels good to us as consumers. For singers…

Touring is the primary source of income for artists, now. In the past several years there seems to have been a dramatic increase in artists that have had to reschedule or cancel shows altogether due to vocal injuries. They’re singing more than ever and having a hard time keeping pace with demand.

As a result of AI and other technologies, changes are going to be coming all around us—in the name of progress, efficiency, and affordability. There will be positive and negative effects, regardless of the industry, just like in music.

The Kentucky Crosbys weren’t farmers. But I grew up surrounded by farms, and surrounded by farmer’s kids in school. I can’t imagine growing up any other way.

Great families, great people!

Farmers are worth recognizing and celebrating!

You get used to being around this equipment. It’s easy not seeing it in operation to take for granted how enormous and powerful these machines are. This bucket on our largest excavator is the size of a 2-person tent…or say, the largest standard hot tub that’s made, holding 450 gallons!

It makes my intimidating, Thor-like figure, look like but a child. 😜

Tough world. Tough equipment.

I had forgotten that, thanks to Kevin Snyder I already have experience selling large equipment, like excavators.

I’m not sure it will look good on a resume…

Back when I lived next door to Kevin, I came home one day to find a large excavator with a rock buster attachment sitting in my yard. The city was getting ready to dig a new water line through my yard, which I knew. But they had not given me notice they’d be dropping off this huge excavator.

As I pulled up to the house I noticed a piece of cardboard with FOR SALE written on it, and MY phone number below that propped up on the machine!

I had barely pulled in the drive when my phone rang. A man on the other line started asking for info on the excavator I was selling. No matter how hard I tried to convince him it wasn’t mine, he wouldn’t believe me and got frustrated that I wouldn’t give him a price. “If you don’t wanna sell it to me just say so. But don’t act like you ain’t sell in’ it. I saw the sign!”

I was getting a little frustrated myself. After I hung up I saw Kevin coming up to me. As I explained what happened he was starting to grin & lose seriousness.

That’s when I knew I’d been pranked by my neighbor.

The interested man on the phone?

His 80’ish yr old dad calling from Hawesville, fully in on the prank.

Like father, like son.
