Last week I loaded 20 oak ties on a 16 foot flat bed trailor and parked it down at my welding shop. The twenty ties were so heavy, one of the rear tires on my half ton truck blew out just sitting there over night; and the tires were just a couple of months old. That's what could happen to your spine when you lift those things.

Not to worry this time anyway...I tend to use my legs rather then my back when lifting heavy items. Or engineer another way. Like callin' in help. No need this time as I figured out how to do it myself...

Can't help but say to take care and go easy with the heavy lifting. Dr. has told me I am supposedly over the lymes disease, but I am finding out that I am not 100% and need to use caution on heavy labor as much as I can. Gets a tad tough when no help is available!
