Fist fight?! What? Wait, you can't just casually mention that and not explain what the heck you talking about Wade. You got to tell us about this.

"It worries me that how fast we live our lives, that I'm not gonna have the opportunity to be a good dad to my boy" Whew, talk about getting hit in the feels! All the stuff you share with us in your videos is cool to see, but THIS is what we missed the most while you were away. I'll follow your comment with "said every great Dad!" God bless, Logger Wade. Seem to be doing a damn good job if you ask me!

That shirt!! 😂

Wade the fact that nobody was in the din din when it was hit by lightning is a blessing cause if someone was in it they could have gotten temporary hearing damage or full hearing loss or temporary blindness or full loss of vision or worse loss of life

Definitely will miss the din din I watched you build her from the start. I recently had my huge 160’x80’ hay barn burn down. That was built in the 50s. I know what you mean by the puddle of aluminum. The fire department didn’t even know their was a 16’ bass tracker And a 04 gmc truck. Until I shows them the titles for everything. Nothing was left. Fire is no joke!!!

Wade just wanted to let you know, i just watched the pod cast with DP. I grew up spending time with my Dad, working at his business. He was all work no play. Or so it seemed. Hated it then, as a kid wouldn't have it any other way now. He is 77 now and still working every day. Love going to work with him every day i can. Your kids will appreciate it later in life. Would love to see those kids at work with old DAD, and Grandpa or Grandma

Wade, cat owns Perkins now, we were in the factory in Peoria Illinois and they were making yellow and grey engines on the same line! Perkins used to be a British company and was used in Massey tractors, jcb diggers and all sorts. When cat bought it many other manufacturers stopped using Perkins engines.

Sorry buddy your gonna have to talk about this first fight! You said it Who won? 😂

As they say shit happens. But we are so glad that you are back with us on KZfaq. You and your family were dearly missed. I'm so sorry for the dindin burning. Hope and pray that everything is resolved. I'm looking forward to the next video! Thanks for sharing! 😊😊

My mom is from falling rock WV. Those hollers are so much fun! Totally different than being born and raised on the big island of Hawaii.

Good to have you back

Welcome back wade

Man so glad to have you back nothing like a shot of logger wade in the morning

So glad you have decided to start do videos again. Awesome you that opportunity to send time with your son. More to life than just working to have something for them if they even want to take it over.

Sounds like from ur explanation that when the lightning hit the hose and it exploded the electrical current stopped with that and lit the hydraulic oil on fire. That's what I'm thinking happened. Cause the insurance guy was right it's a steel machine sitting on steel tracks on the ground so it should be grounded that way. That's what makes sense to me anyways. If it hadn't struck the hose I think it wouldn't have hurt it

Glad to see you back! It's a different generation of kids these days for sure but the one thing you don't need to do is worry too much about them boy's, you and Anne are raising them right.

Dude, I just love your outlook on life... even though you and Levi were driving like crazy, it's quality memories you were making ❤ Saw safe my friend !

That’s terrible buddy you have definitely been through some rough patches this year glad you got through and came back on KZfaq I have faith you will be better than ever all around things happen buddy thanks for sharing don’t overwork yourself god bless you

Mr Wade so glad you started making videos again. You take of yourself and family.

Glad everybody was not hurt. Love watching you Tater. Keep that chin up and keep hammering down. That is how life throws you different stuff. God wont give you more than you cant handle.

I'm glad to see you back at it buddy. Sure missed the videos. Hope you and your family are doing good and hope you all have a Merry Christmas

Me too: I'm glad to have you back, Wade! - Thank you for sharing the video at all, and particularly for saying what happened. I love your efforts of inserting stills of what you're talking about and of doing picture-in-picture in the loader at the mill. - Me, I know that feeling of discovering that your insurance didn't cover that accident. Fortunately, my liability case didn't cost me. By the way, you had me understand why frightened ostriches stick their heads into the sand: they don't want their necks to act as lightning rods. Have you ever seen an ostrich struck by lightning? Proof! ;-)

glad your back Wade. sorry for the hassle you have had to go through , If you can afford it get replacement cost Insurance, but still have to read between the lis and have a Philadelphia Lawer

Glad to have ya back logger wade

Great to see you back

I’m glad to see you back on the tube I got worried I was checking on Facebook I’ve commented on some old videos I sure did miss seeing you on here we just got done rebuilding a excavator just like the din din the worst thing was trying to get the hydraulic hose routeing because cat does not show you they will on wiring and that’s it but on everything else cat makes they have all the diagrams for hydraulic hose’s and wiring for everything else they make but not for small exavtor until you get into the 395 and bigger they told us the smaller one are not worth rebuilding just replace them witch I think is a son of a buck but thanks wade for coming back stay safe and keep up the good videos coming

Welcome back, you were missed.

My wife wants a new porch. The 1 I built was temporary in 2005. So she was burning trash and something fell and light the porch railing on fire. I told her that's not the way to get a new porch. Lol. Wade Glad ur back.

Wade , Sorry to hear about the succession of problems you’ve had. It’s just the natural course of things. Hope you’re on the way back and just enjoy the small things of life.Those become the most important and memorable in the end. Take care and keep having the Craic (crack) . It’ll get you through. Remember everyday’s a school day.

A little Wade is better than no Wade Weekly Video would be great Take care of you, your family first. Followed by business and friends.

Good to see you back on KZfaq bud!!

The later part of your vid hit really close to home for me!! Not going into details but I feel exactly where you are coming from with your boys. 😢

great to see you back tator .... time to prank that neighbour of yours

Nice to see some vidjas. Have a merry Christmas , Stumpjumpers brother

Good to see you back tater 👍👍 sounds like the incident with the din din was probably 1 in a million

Echo box on the loader!! Love it!!

So awesome you are back!!!! Love your videos.

Another good one ole buddy but all of your videos are. I just had an experience with fire myself a couple months ago with my 2007 Peterbuilt. I was driving down the road minding my own and all of a sudden I looked back and the whole inside of the sleeper was in flames. I tried to get stopped but my drivers seat was on fire so at around 30mph this old fat guy jumped out lol NOT FUN. Within 4 minutes of seeing flames the whole truck was a huge fireball ended up a total loss. But I finally got everything straightened out with the insurance company and was able to get me another truck. A 2013 International Lone Star with 625hp and a 13spd it only has 462,000 original miles on it and I love it

First of all Glad your back logger wade and second damn it's crispy lol

Glad to see you!, missed you!

Glad you made a video wade love the content man

Glad you enjoyed the New River and the Bridge. Born, raised and still live here .

Good to see you back at it
