    Went to my farm of preference today thinking I was going to stage some tree top logs that will need pulled with the tractor. Got surprised. Farmer said the first bean field he combined had a tree over in the beans. So I head that way thinking it's probably a rotten ash or silver maple. Nope it's a nice oak. Big Red got to haul a more proper load.

    Sweet! Good you get to help that farmer out.

    I saw one fellow working the beans this week. But we keep getting showers so that will hold things up.

    A couple more loads, the main trunk is big, and more limb wood yet, plus it took some other trees out.
