Almost Disappointed

After several days of heavy rain and being trapped indoors, the sun was out today so went wood cutting.

My first choice - the road is impassable.

Second choice.

Third choice found some Hemlock long butts.

Almost loaded.

 

wow youve been wet out there! So have we but nothing like out west. Glad you didnt get skunked!

 

I think the storm stalled over the region for two days ,I was happy not to get skunked .

 

Is there any fish in that pond ?

 

When the rain lets up for several weeks both areas will be dry .

 

Nice use of the splitter to keep the chain our of the rocks !
Nice load too.

 

Nice work Alan. If you get too hot you could go for a dip.

 

You could had yourself an old fashioned log drive on that river/road in the first pic.

 

Wondered if someone would notice , very observant !

 

Well, that's good, firewood hunting day was not a waste you got a good load a

 

With a little adventure added in!

 

Luckily the cutting area was pond free.

 

It's not the destination, it's the adventure getting there

 

I never had to cut wood wearing a life jacket on like you almost had to.

 

Like this?

Log tow.

 

Exactly, just like that!

 

There was a plan!

 

In my early years of working, I was known as a boomman making up these log tows and a life jacket was an important part of your working gear.

 

Hot or not to cold for me!
