Today was all about moving cut timber. Mike, Corey, Brad and myself got stuck into it in the afternoon and I helped do the power lift. First you cross stack the timber with a couple of good solid ones at the base. Then you all get under them and clear the whole lot out in one go. I’ll give you the tip, that wood is heavy when it is wet! Brad gouged a chunk out his stomach doing one load but it went well. It was cold and wet, 10 degrees Celsius but doing some physical work meant we were all sweating pretty hard.

Woke up a little tired this morning. Steve went up to Stony Rapids, Leo flew out so now it is Tom and I. It is awfully quiet here now. August is wedding time in Canada so most of the drill crews have gone on break too. A good time to catch up on stuff and do those jobs that are always put on the back burner. Tom and I familiarized ourselves with the next lot of holes and had some great chats. He is a good bloke.
Duzza and I cleaned up the trees and mess that we left a week previous and I started compiling procedures. All in all a productive day.
