thanks for hitting that record button even though you were feeling like death. Working when sick is terrible, working while sick and then keeping content coming for all your subscribers, that says a lot about you. probably why so many people have stuck with ya for all these years. hope you're feeling better and back on the mend now.
I'm thinking that Chris might have been an early candidate for Covid? It was about the right time frame and from Chris' own words he said "That's the first time in my life I've been home for 3 days sick"? But it's also a good thing in a way if it was Covid and he recovered on his own. Now he's got antibodies against it.
Sounds as though you may have contracted the Coronavirus, the "This is the first time in my life that I spent three solid days at home. " sounds like what I've been hearing throughout the year. Glad to see that you are doing well.
My grandson was so worried you going to get stuck that he almost panicked. I told him to wait and see and he was so amazed and his comment was. Papa he is so good can he teach me how to do that. Once again you made his day. Thanks
I remember watching you work this job and feeling bad for you as I was just coming off of being sick for 2-3 weeks. Went to Doc and they diagnosed me with sinus infection because I tested negative for 2 strains of flu. Then the coronavirus pandemic hit. I think i had that darn infection before it was known about.
Been watching this for days now. Man, you have the patience of a saint. THAT is like shoveling sh!t against the tide! Good on you, Brother! Feel better!
I know this is belated as I have been watching for the first time your older videos. Kudos, brass conjones, and intestinal fortitude to you for working thru all that. This goes for the rest of your guys. Great job!!!
Glad your feeling better. I got the flu here in Connecticut. I got the flu shot 4 months ago. So glad this challenging project is done for you. Keep more quality vids coming. Watching for years now.
Get well soon Chris. Nothing worse than working sick. Chris any chance of some more of your auction vids . They cracked me up lol. Keep up the great work.
Glad your feeling better. You being a business owner, I am sure it makes you feel good to know the others that you work with did a good job, when your were healing up.
Great video Chris ... glad you are feeling better now... I just don't understand why rental dealer's always put used crap buckets on new machines..has happened to me before and when it breaks down the dealer just shrugged their shoulders and says I dunno... while I have to deal with down time ! Take care of yourself buddy
Glad to hear your feeling better. I had the flu through Christmas and new years couldn't go and see family because I was too sick and didn't want to get anyone else sick.
Just shows what a determined worker you are Chris. Many people would have called it a day much earlier! Flu can certainly lay you low and best to give into it and have a few days off otherwise it hangs over you for days. Hope you are well on the mend now and look forward to seeing your next contract. All the best.Cheers
Thanks for explaining the weight laws some. Many people do not understand them. And many ignore the weight laws and beat up the roads because they are over weight. This causes more road maintenance and repair needed.
I worked as a Lineman for CP&L which became Progress Energy in the Dunn area. I believe they got baught out by Duke Energy after I left. Wished I could have crossed paths with ya Chris. The world is going to be in a real bind before long. Good, reliable workers like you are getting hard to find. Thumbs up to ya brother. God bless.
You got nerves of steel, I guess that comes with many hours of work. Great job and I know what you mean working and feel like death. A few times I thought I would have to get better just to die. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
Glad to see you feeling better Chris !, Man, when you made this video ,you could see it in your face than you felt like complete Hell !! Good to see that you did take time and let yourself get better, like i said, that Flu going around this year ain't No Joke !! Hell, it's killing people....But, Great work as always Man !! Have a Great Weekend.....
I'm glad you're feeling better. Thanks for taking us along, even though you were sick. Luckily my computer virus protection is up to date, so I probably won't get sick (see what I did there?). Thanks.
Chris your as good of operator I have seen certainly got me beat and I been on equipment all my life. That pond dredge job was one of toughest I have seen and you did it masterfully most would have buried the machine. I am glad your feeling better it is tough having to be out there when your that sick. But sometimes you just have to do it because no one else can and the job must be done. I am retired now but on occasion I still am called on to cut and remove dangerous trees that is endangering homes and buildings. Just because my experience enables me to do things no one else will touch.
Kevin Schaffner I generally only watch the dredging ones at the drop of a hat, the others are if I happen to notice them, and have time, the dredging and pond work ones are amazing
Daniel Coates I watch all of them as they show up on my notifications, but I definitely like the dredging ones best...has a sort of satisfaction to watch them
I haven't had the flu for 30 + years. Every time I've got a flu shot I was sick for about a week. Well about 2 weeks ago I got it. I'm getting a flu shot next year. For me it was bad. First week sinuses headache, you don't want to know the 2nd week. You have my sympathy.
That's about the time I had a monster bug that wasn't the flu. I had my shot last October. Flu test was negative. It was called a sever upper respiratory infection. Covid was just barely on the map. I think it was it due to the symptoms I had. No testing was available yet. Worked through most of it too. Stayed away from my buds at work. No one else got it. Wife had it two weeks before me. Same symptoms same diagnosis. I guess we were lucky.
that poor 220 is gonna need a day at the Volvo spa to recuperate . and yeah the far shot of the long reach laying back and the trickling water sounds are very relaxing . like a meditative vidja .
Haha I had the flu on Christmas Eve and had a backfill that had to be done before Christmas. It was a really rough day jumping in and out of the machine to deal with flu “situations” lol. Gotta do what you gotta do though good work Chris!
I usually hit a pack of Lemon flav Thera-flu and i'm good for a few hours. Takes away most of the muscle aches. Keep it in my tool box for an emergency
The body well only take so much and then it will take on its own rules, whether we like it or not... I am glad your better and thank you for the videos !
Back in the mid 60 , there wasn't Excavator yet, so then we use mud cats with real wide tracks, we also use like two D6c, that had like a hundred feet of heavy cable , pull the one cat thru the mud, it actually worked well. Dredging out pounds.
wet sand is ridiculous heavy. i worked at a 1200 cow dairy they had me clean the sand bedding solids from the manure pit with a cat payloader into 2 gehl scavenger side slinger manure spreaders with large tubeless flotation tires. 2 flat tires that morning before i figured out what was happening

I really thought you were about to get stuck but knew better.
_Can't recall other ponds you've dredged that had as much muck as that did!_
You know what is sad is that there are not any neighborhood kids gawking the at the wondrous spectacle. We would have spent the whole day watching.
I would be there every day.
Camarata flew in from New York State to watch how real excavating is done
yep same here would have been out there all day as kid, now they just watch videos of it on youtube :)
Glad to see you feeling better
All your videos are great, but I’d have to say the dredging ones are my favorite ones
Kevin Schaffner I generally only watch the dredging ones at the drop of a hat, the others are if I happen to notice them, and have time, the dredging and pond work ones are amazing
Daniel Coates I watch all of them as they show up on my notifications, but I definitely like the dredging ones best...has a sort of satisfaction to watch them
Just got over the Flu myself it takes a lot out of a man. Glad you are feeling better good bye long reach!
Chris you are the man!👍👍
Finally finished without gettin stuck ...beeen watching the whole time
Good job and glad your on the mend!
Good to hear you're feeling better!
Bet you’ll be glad to see the back of that job Chris!
I haven't had the flu for 30 + years. Every time I've got a flu shot I was sick for about a week. Well about 2 weeks ago I got it. I'm getting a flu shot next year. For me it was bad. First week sinuses headache, you don't want to know the 2nd week. You have my sympathy.

Fair play to you for sticking to it as long as you did.

Glad you're feeling better! Had the flu a month ago and it sucked as the flu always does ! Lol
Haha I had the flu on Christmas Eve and had a backfill that had to be done before Christmas. It was a really rough day jumping in and out of the machine to deal with flu “situations” lol. Gotta do what you gotta do though good work Chris!
I usually hit a pack of Lemon flav Thera-flu and i'm good for a few hours. Takes away most of the muscle aches. Keep it in my tool box for an emergency
That sounds like a good idea! Never heard of that I’ll check it out!
The muscle aches are not as bad as the Hershey Squirts.
