While the wife is away... Part 6


Hauling wood!

This is a 16ft long 4x6 bit of wood. It's funny how they say 4" by 6" when in reality it is 3.5" by 5.5"
You would have thought a 2 by 4 would be 2 inches by 4 inches - but you are wrong. So wrong. 
It's 3.5 by 1.5 inches. 

So basically you cannot believe the hype or any measurements they give you. 


I managed to fit several 10Ft long 4x4 pieces of wood in the back of the Civic. So I was thinking that a 16ft would protrude by a little - maybe 6ft.  It was more like 7ft and a bit. 
No problem though - I went up a few slopes and I did not manage to scrape the ground. 
I passed a cop. Not a problem. 
Another cop passed me - but he went for someone else. 

WIth that flag on the back it was totally legal - no probs.
