If I could know the targets were like these, I probably would do a root bypass on the tree to get at them. ;)

Excellent!

Glad I could lead you to the promised land !!! If you dug one more Barber I would have thrown my digger at you :censored:. Funny how you had a great day and I dug nothing but a single wheatie...Some days you're the windshield and some days you're the bug. I was definitely the bug today. I can't complain, I had a very good week over all. Hopefully I can pull a couple good ones tomorrow.

wow, great recovery! poor ole Ed, some days are like that, you get your butt handed to you or you are doing it to someone else. but with all that said, the pirate is the pirate and he's pretty darn good, like several others out there.
