    Not an abundance of limbs so bucking that up should not take long at all. Good luck.

    It's been almost a year and a half since I have had a decent amount of wood to cut.

    After reading the original post I'm wondering if it will end up a row of cookies.

    Or tell them to get some beers.. cold beers. Plenty of them!

    Chopped some wood today, way too hot outside and it was just around 86°F - but you Thor got quite a bit laying ahead of you and it looks quite roasting there too :flipeggs:
    Get cold beers and wait for colders days :drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk:

    I like that last line. "Get the cold beers and wait for colder days."

    My wife would like me to drill a hole in the stump and put a shepherd's hook up. For a bird feeder.
