It's great when you can get firewood from work!

My sister has some landscaping timbers around a couple trees in her backyard, put there by a previous owner, silver maples, I can already see the estimate

 

I almost always pass big silvers on to guys with cranes. I’m really not well equipped for extreme removals. At the end of the day I’m just a guy with a truck, dump insert, small chipper, mini skid, and trailer. Aside from the plant health care knowledge I’m really just a glorified mover. I move the wood from point A to point B.

 

They came back! I was starting to think they're removal became a trim but today they returned and cut it down to a twig, beamed that top right in between the buildings on the asphalt, seemed a bit risky but nothing is damaged.

I grabbed what I could lift in the bed

 

Some good firewood there

 

Sad news to report. The tree service is taking the whole tree, looks like they found a mill that will buy it

 

That $%@&$. At least you tried. Been there done that myself. There's always more wood.

 

BOOOOO!

 

After such a disappointing loss I decided to treat myself to something nice!

Some splitting will take place tomorrow on the oak stash so it's not a total waste!

 

Great choice.

I think you should buy yourself a new chainsaw too. Cant have you being too disappointed now, can we?

 

Haha don't add to my shopping list!
Last time I was at the saw shop they had a couple used ones for a discount, might need to stop buy again!
