Did A Good Deed

I was driving home today when I saw a large dead tree fall all the way over the highway. Nobody got it because a train had stopped the traffic from the other direction. Three men hopped out to try to pull the tree off the road. They couldn't even budge it. So I pulled over into the ditch and yelled at them to grab my winch line. I got it all the way off the road with the winch without much of a traffic hold up. I finished the last couple of feet by pulling it in 4Lo reverse.

I know, I know...no pics it didn't happen! :lol:

Very cool Fulltimer.

I wish we had that on video. Maybe your local T.V. channel took footage from their traffic/news helicopter and you'll be on the local news! :lol:

TV, now that would be funny! Some lady stuck her head out her window to say she reported the downed tree and the county was sending a TEAM out to take care of it! Come to think of it that would make a good story! :lol:

Never moved a fallen tree out of the way, but I have moved trashcans out of the street. :jester:

Last night I saw a car in a ditch and I pulled over to ask the cops if they needed help pulling him out and they said they already called a tow truck. I was kinda bummed. lol
