    Load after work, sure is nice having some help. The 2 sleighs are full at work and there is a pile in the woods. Nice having tomorrow’s truck load already done. 1B12A773-C9CD-47A4-A115-F1C9077715DC.jpeg 6A8BED7B-6F3B-4630-A7AF-A79392FECB6D.jpeg 7186DDF0-6CD6-46D0-A49F-9BFA9A810CB6.jpeg 8406BAF8-F02D-41F6-AEAE-F8F3366899D1.jpeg

We use Skandics and the 10 foot sleighs to get out the rounds. The sleighs are loaded for tomorrow’s load. It’s my Friday and I may not cut after work, but have a pickup load ready. It was a nice night in the woods cutting. Pretty soon I will have 5 hours of daylight. It’s get dark by 4pm when I get off duty. I am excited for when it will be light until 6pm.

    Today’s load after work, it was the last day of my 3 day warmer than zero spell. Got somewhere around 2/3 to 1 mile of new snow machine trail cut with lots of blow down and standing dead beatle kill. 63D53A4F-3161-400C-9456-1BAF73127112.jpeg FCB19B6C-663E-442D-A1B5-ADF11230E864.jpeg F6419572-6545-4D49-B91F-9538B16E059E.jpeg FD32E641-3671-4FAC-8368-BB459924A50A.jpeg 3C67CCE5-8435-4535-8913-A00F448DC466.jpeg 47FDFBF7-224E-49C7-BE20-95B9535A43F1.jpeg

    Less than 5 miles and mostly down hill on low traffic, country roads. Still, not the best decision....

    If I had a dollar for every time I've said "not the best decision" after doing something, I could buy that Toyota
