Prayers for Uncle John's recovery! You probably miss him being around. Many thanks for the closed captions. I'm hard of hearing, even with hearing aides, from too many years in the factories as an electrician. The captions really help to understand you. Glad they are back. You are quite the operator, so smooth! My dad operated all his life, so I grew up a lot like you did. He taught me to run a hi-lift and backhoe before I was old enough to drive. Some of my best memories are the times I spent out on the job with him in the summer. Blessings on you Chris, you're amazing to watch and I've learned some things too. Never too old to learn, even at 67.

I enjoy your videos, when I was in college I worked summers for an excavation contractor . We did mostly schools and larger projects so I had the opportunity to work with many operators (I was a laborer) and you guys aren’t all created equal. Some guys you just didn’t feel safe with when in a ditch. I would definitely feel safe with you as you are buttery smooth now I know the machine and it’s age and maintenance play a role in the operators performance as well. Also your final grading skills are top notch. Keep up the good work.
