Myers, I guess that is one way to save fuel and get in shape at the same time...Getting back to the loader does not look nearly as fun. One bit of advice, you may want to bring some loppers on next trip to the low field, a few branches may need to be shortened...Topside....

You guys have to much time on your hands, I think it`s more for fun than to save walking. Hehe. > Thanks Marc
