Best video on KZbin!!! 2 men handling business like grown men.

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Robert! It was a great outcome for sure… Sam

[@patrickmcg9075]

The neighbor sounds like a really nice guy to have as a neighbor. This video was a great message to all of us. Thank you so much. I don’t know who else it helped but it certainly helped me and I’m going to apply it towards my fellow men

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you Patrick. It certainly helped me as well! I often jump to confrontation instead of grace and mercy. Thank you for sharing that and it is a blessing to know the Lord is using this little KZbin channel to bless folks... God Bless and Happy Easter...

[@johncranston3388]

I don't think I came upon your video by accident. I appreciate your candidness. Exposing your mistake for what it was, a mistake. I needed to hear that, especially today. The neighbor and yourself were an example of true good people and I feel blessed hearing your testimony today. God bless you sir! Have a great day!

[@tristardiggin]

God Bless you and I certainly appreciate what you said. I don't believe in coincidence either. The Lord makes things happen that way. He knows what you need to hear when you need it... Thanks, Sam

[@markrunion1769]

The end of that road had all the ingredients for a bad ending with a high strung adjoining landowner. I was watching in anticipation wondering if you were just leading us along for a ride.....but when I saw the red flags and the text on the screen of the upcoming error I was praying for the best. We have some really good people where we live and this is a great example of that. The message from Proverbs 19 and Romans 12 was the right medicine for this occasion. Thanks for the video!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Mark! Just as I figured it out and that sick feeling you get in your gut kicked in I heard two 4 wheelers coming up the hill. Thankfully it went very well... God Bless and Happy Easter...

[@denniswilhelm1316]

Just found this and watched. Had a conflict with my son in law just 2 days ago. He was TOTALLY in the wrong, and if I wasn’t paralyzed and able to speak I may have lashed out, but thankfully I got a couple days to think and pray about it. In my heart I was yelling 😕, and will soon address the issue via text, but a couple days to mull things over certainly helped. Nothing worse than being around a hot headed person. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Dennis, I’ve been there all to many times. And sometimes, more so than not, I made bad decisions because I acted in haste instead of taking time to make a better decision. Hope things turn out good for your situation… God Bless

[@randytedford6108]

I just found this one to watch. The way it started out reminded me of Willie Nelson singing "The Last Thing I Needed (the first thing this morning). When you were pulling down that vine, I thoroughly expected you to cut loose with a Johnny Weismuller (sp ?) Tarzan yell and swing down toward the County Road. You're "It happens" encounter with the other property owner is one that renews one's faith in reasonable people. I'm glad we had talked about this type of totally unscripted "reality TV". You present each day's work "warts and all". I'd have to rate this a top favorite video from you. As Grannie always said, "Bless your heart". 😊

[@tristardiggin]

Right, this was a doozy and a definite learning experience. I’m very thankful the neighbor was understanding. It could have went bad quick…

[@Shadow_Shark82]

Always better to make a new friend than an enemy especially when that friend has a dozer lol. Just got 80 acres of raw land so I’m learning a lot from you about how to do some of the work so I appreciate what you do and the messages. Thank you! 🙏

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Bryan that’s exactly right! Wow, that could have gone bad but it worked out as good as it could have. That 80 acres is pretty cool to have. Good to hear the videos are a help to you and especially the message… God Bless

Shout out from Queensland, Australia from a retired farmer and engineer. Mate I’m no Christian so gave that last section a miss but really appreciate you posting your videos for us to watch. Mate, my experience in life is you only get out of folks what your prepared to put into them, admitting your error was probably all he had to hear, country folk see a lot of things in their lives, births and deaths of animals, near accidents working around machinery and such like so to say they are the salt of the earth is a truth of life and hence more forgiving by nature. Anyway, great road, love your commentary and explanations and the various scope of your work. Take care

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you! I definitely agree with what you said about country folks. Seems we are a bit more tolerant to things, understanding things like this happen. I appreciate you watching and supporting the channel. It’s cool to know folks in Australia watch the videos. KZbin is a great way to see real life in other parts of the world. Thanks, Sam

[@SteveSRT]

I think it made the video better leaving the mistake in it. It’s nice to hear of decent understanding people left in this world and hopefully someone else can learn from this man’s attitude that stuff happens and its not worth being angry over. Like you said, it couldn’t have been a better time to learn a valuable lesson about checking maps and that man being a decent human helped make that lesson not so painful other than some time lost. As always, loved seeing the pup, such a handsome devil and glad he gets to hang out with you at work!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Steve. And you are right about leaving it in. This mess up certainly helped me to learn to pay attention and to learn from this fellers attitude. So, as you said, hopefully others can see this and it help them as well. Diesel is a good ole friend and love having him with me...

Man that road looks good!! I seen you get out and remove that little tree that fell over your dozer blade. I know the feeling. I get a lot of that mulching. A lot of times they try and pin me in the machine by falling in front of the door. Maybe if I keep hoping and praying I’ll have me a fancy dozer like you and ole smith worx! I sure do love a dozer. This was great video! Awesome message. Keep it up!!

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you! I saw a few of those limbs in your mulching video that was trying to get you. Especially that cedar that sent the CAT bucking and jumping. I thought ouch that was a rough one. I didn't use to wear my belt in the skid steer. But I ate the glass door pretty hard one day and every since then I wear it in there. Keep going after it and the dozer may be a reality.

[@poorfarm-nn6ii]

@@tristardiggin yeah I hung that cedar just off the edge of the mulching head and when it slipped in it tossed me forward. I wear the belt on the hills now. Holds me in my seat better and kinda helps my back not hurt as bad. I’ve slammed my head into the roof a time or two. I get upset when my hat comes off too lol. The belt on the dozer is a pretty good call too. I’m gonna keep pushing for a good future. See what the good Lord has in store for me.

The important thing is to admit mistakes and try our best to make them right. Some folks would really be upset over what happened, but the fact you told the owner you messed up probably set the tone for the interactions you had with him. Most people are very reasonable and understanding. No way would I be mad at all and as long as it is fixed up right, it would be a distant memory that never made any difference to me or anyone else for that matter. Good job!

[@gary-gilbert]

not knowing where the boundaries are or anything, i think i would have preferred the where the road was cut down to be sloped where I could get a riding mower on it instead of cut down strait up and down. That dirt will fall of the strait part into the road. I know my driveway was the same way. I should have had the hill sloped into the road instead of a wall. Also the berm or dirt I would have wanted to make the road wider or have it where I could mow with a riding mower along the road. But if they only gave you 2 days of budget you did what you could. If they had let you work another day it would have been a lot nicer I think.

@@tristardiggin you still did a fine job. But I’ve learned the hard way it’s better to do it right the first time even if you have to wait a few years to save up the money for it. 20 years ago I paid $50 a hour for dozer work. I bet now with expenses ppl probably pay $150 a hour or more.

[@tristardiggin]

That’s cool you are getting some new property. It is out of my area and I don’t personally know anyone in that area. But when you get ready for estimates I can mention it on the channel and see if anyone in that area responds…

Why couldn't you have been like him? We should all strive to be better folks. Understanding that we all make mistakes, including you...

[@boxlid214]

Owning up to mistakes is fairly uncommon these days, so that right there likely gave the neighbor no reason to be irate about it

Sure was gut wrenching for a few minutes when I heard the 4 wheelers coming up the hill. But all is well and worked out great. Thanks, Sam

You should probably use Google maps. I’m not sure where his GPS location on. I’ll tell you exactly where you are.

Yup, that would help... Thanks, Sam

i watch this one youtube channel he has a tri-pod that mounts to a tree and records he just marks the tree its on .. possible option

[@tristardiggin]

That would be a cool tripod. Thanks for the info... Sam

Hey, Dr. Pepper is a healthy drink. Why else would they name it after a Dr.? I think the owner should have clearly marked the road or visited with you especially with the property line so close to the dozer work area. It happens!

[@tristardiggin]

I'm with you on the Dr. Pepper, it has to be healthy. It's to good not to be. 😁 Yup, no more road cutting unless I know what is what... Thanks, Sam

[@teddysponsler6220]

No one can tell me, how much does a road like this cost ? Hopefully you can be as kind as the neighbor was to you

[@tristardiggin]

There are a lot of factors that influence the cost of road building. But one similar to this one would be around $3500 and up from there, depending on what needs to be done…

A Godly man accepts responsibility for his successes and failures and so glad the neighbor saw you didn't have any malicious intent. I grew up in my family's retail lumber business and back in the 1960s and 70s drivers would deliver framing materials by dumping the strapped material off at a homesite. Back then the directions were "... go down Mountain Rest Road and past the white barn there is a gravel drove on the left. Sure enough... every Summer a load would be dropped at the wrong site and the driver would have to go load everything by hand and then unload it by hand at the correct site. No harm, no foul. Just embarrassing.

[@tristardiggin]

Right, things like that happen every day. It just depends on how we handle it. This guy handled it very well. I'm very familiar with directions like that! 😁 Thanks, Sam
