    Thank you sir! I’ve had approximately 12 in the past year. I currently have 3 in my kidney. I can usually pass them without a big deal. My luck ran out this week.

    Hang in there Jack, that sounds pretty uncomfortable! We'll try to keep you amused.

    This morning’s project. These are in our fenced in backyard and should have been taken down a “while” ago.:emb:

    Needed to drop them inward so I didn’t hit my fence. Just the right wedge out of here and there and .......

    Weather guessers are wrong again. The show wasn't supposed to start until noon, but it was snowing at 8am. Close enough, huh?

    Friday at noon they all said show not until after 4pm Saturday, then by the evening they bumped it to start at noon.

    Going to go get a load of elm from the wood lot, and maybe cut something down? I'll be trying some real chain ( Bailey's lgx iirc) on my dolkita, and not the trilink chain that came with it. That loop needs a sharpening.

    Finally summoned the courage to head back outside and start the Bronco. Plugging it in for an hour did nothing, it was not happy to be awoken. Currently sitting on high idle, when the bit of ice on the windshield melts I guess it's time to go to the dump.

    My son and I moved all of the wood from those three dead Pine. The largest rounds, closest to the bottom of the two bigger trees went to the processing area to be split, stacked, and burned next season. The rest went right in the basement to heat the house along side some nice dry Maple.

    I used the bucket on the 3550 to scrape all the mess into a pile and we will light it off late this afternoon before the snow comes. A good job done! AF6C57DC-7609-4B7C-856D-BB03524E42A8.jpeg
