Well I've shared enough cool stuff here that it's only fair I share the mistakes as well. Today while taking down a fir I tossed out about a 10' skinny log, rotating it to land flat. It landed dead center on a piece of exposited bedrock that was angled downhill. That sent the log about 40' airborne right into the side of my truck, smashing the mirror, denting both doors and top of the cab. First time in 13-ish years of work I've ever damaged a vehicle, but at least it was mine and not a customers. Sort of a freak accident, but the physics all make sense and it's my mistake. I've got new mirrors and rain guards in the mail already, now I'll need to talk to my insurance and a body shop about fixing it. Never had to file a claim before and may just pay cash, not sure how to handle it yet and need to get more information. Pretty frustrating, but mistakes happen and life goes on.
