    My son and I cut some firewood this afternoon. It's still really wet in the woods. We have a lot of blow downs to clean up once it dries up a little more. Still a fun day! :thumbs:

    No firewood this week but we are taking down two huge spruce trees, a piece of this stick will end up as side boards for my big dump trailer......would anyone like to see a thread on creating those boards with the chainsaw mill?

    YES!!! I always enjoy seeing what you are working on. Not enough activity in the milling section either.

    We didn't save it for farwood, but cleaned up a huge pecan tree for a lady Tuesday morning after it destroyed her storage building Messenger_creation_DE4BBD13-C9E4-42FB-8303-6A7A115595E0.jpeg Messenger_creation_0E711DE9-3889-489E-8718-09267ABC799C.jpeg Messenger_creation_CC2A94B8-5A23-4378-BD0B-B01EA795556A.jpeg Messenger_creation_818BFFA3-F2DB-4915-9130-83DE7D4E84C2.jpeg

    The picture with tractor sure brought back memories. I grew up using one of those. We used it for many things. Mowing and raking hay, then moving wagons from field to barn and back. Planting. Cultivating and all easy jobs around the farm. We even had it running the blower when filling silo.

    Thank you for posting those pictures. I will say working in the woods there is much different from what we have here.

    The weather tomorrow and Friday might be on the crappy side, so probably this weekend.
