Skidding Done Today.

Finally got out to start skidding some more of the downed Ash trees today. Bit of a long pull to the deck, but we got about 25 out.

 

Good job. Money in the bank!!

... Looks like good times to me sir!

Did all of that ash fell victim to EAB?

 

I'm glad the weather cooperated for you!

 

Yes, they're years dead & most were down. Limbs are gone, but they're still solid. Got at least 150 to go.

 

Thanks, it wasn't bad. Bit windy, but a good day to work.

 

Ash...Truly the giving tree.

 

Looks like your ground is dryer than here...I left some pretty good tracks driving across grass covered field today...was high ground too.

 

150 that will keep you busy for while i guess, still a shame they all dying away.

 

Took the day off mostly from firewood other than hauling some down to a friend for cooking syrup. Looks like a good day amateur cutter

 

good looking haul. Nice that the brnaches are gone already. Lots of them around these parts like that too.

 

That is one good looking tractor! Well done on the wood too

 

Ground was pretty good there, sandy loam that's gonna be hayfield this summer. Road was a little sketchy. About a 300 yd pull from where they lay to the deck.

Thanks Hammy , I really love that old M. She'll do a lot of work if ya know how to run the old ones. Takes a bit of patience & planning to be efficient.

 

Well done Adam, jealous because I have not been able to cut for s few days.

 

Thanks Tom, It looks like the weather may finally start to help instead of hinder here. No rain or snow forecast so I'm hoping the ground stays decent. I've got a ton of skidding to get done before it gets hot & overgrown. Need to quit my day job.

 

Don’t we all, if you do that you need wood for there, we can get some when you move up.

 

Yep, the "M" is a good tractor. We had one in the late '70's that I drove, pulling a 10' hydraulic lift disc harrow. Fun times.

 

Oh, nice work with the skidding too. Good wood.
