I basically drive 4 hours and/or haul a snow cat in winter to spend two more hours getting to a site where I do 20 minutes worth of work usually involving a very small screwdriver. I get plenty of exercise, especially in winter, snowshoeing across 11,000 foot ridgelines in a blizzard. I always wanted to be Jeremiah Johnson. Be careful what you wish for.
I have found new respect for you.

Live long and prosper
