    Hey Dave, I knew it was about this time we saw perfection happening. Always enjoyed your pics from processing and stacking, the view you have in your backyard is the best!

    I was just asking Dennis last week whether or not you had started to burn yet, usually your one of the first.

    Congrats on some good wood and being healthy enough to collect it.

    Dave, limbing can indeed be tough on the back. We did make it a little easier here when my wife talked me into a Stihl 180. That thing feels like a toy but works nice for cutting limbs and brush.

    I have a 16" on it and it works fine. I've even cut a 24" red oak with it!
