    Had this little Alder break and hang up.
    Looked like a bit of trouble but last night’s wind solved the problem.
    Easy firewood and a very short haul to the pile. [​IMG]

    That is a good thing. Sometimes patience is the way to go.

    That looks like it will be fun cutting up. Took out your bird feeder also.

    Yeah the rest is coming down. Got a little cut up before the big rain storm hit. Will try again later. No rush. [​IMG]
