    took the day off since I had many things to do. Got about 2/3 to 1 cord cut, and dropped 4 smallish hickories and one horn beam. One hickory around 12 inches in diameter was misjudged and started leaning the wrong way. Luckily the tractor was nearby, so I pushed it the right way. Scary few minutes:dex:

    That's what the undertaker said: "He misjudged the lean and he forgot his phone." Let's be careful out there. Glad everything worked out for the best!

    Looking at everyone else's piles of accomplishments is almost as good as looking at your own, almost. Looks like you had a great day out there Woodsnwoods . Thanks for the pics!

    Got a little stacking done, maybe a half cord. Blocked up the old dead hickory also. I must say, the MS 461 sings when I touch up the rakers. Blocks looks small since I am taking the picture from second story deck, but they are in the 30-36 inch range. :dex:
