I am not sure of the answer to your question. But legend has it that he has real firewood hoarder super hero like special "power". Backwoods Savage may know more than he will admit too. He is a loyal one. It has been said, by the elders, (speculation of course) they think he will give his wife one, maybe two slices, of an extra large and loaded up Sergi's meat lovers Pizza. Then he eats the rest. The next day there is no huffing and puffing needed. Just turns his backside toward the leaning tree to finish it off. The big weather guys are still trying to figure out where some of the more powerful micro-burst come from in that area of the state.
I would notch the bottom and then do a plunge cut to the hinge and then back, if I decide to do it. If it's still up then I'll likely give it another winter. We have plenty of downed trees that are on the spring schedule.
I think this week I'll make sure the trail going up the hill is clear of any fallen trees and then check on this.
The Maple in my original post is still up so I'll get the other Maple that is down, I'll be starting in October.
Step #1 Throw a heavy duty weighted rope around it. Step #2 Go to Sergi's and order and then eat two of their fried Pepperoni Pizza rolls. And a very large Pepsi cola. Step #3 Let wife drive you home in your comatosed state. Step #4 Attach said rope around your waste and take up all slack. Step #5 Lean into it real far and bring it on down!
That's far for me, so luckily Dawn saved the day with some chocolate cake with a chocolate mousse icing.
We thought you were coming over for yours but when you didn't show, I had to eat your dessert. I'm thinking once U get that roof on, your wife will be making you some.
