    That deserves a real suck, since those trees surely contributed to the beauty of y'all's home :confused:
    Yes there's an upside, but dang!

    Have 50 swamp white oaks coming in spring, and there are enough maples left in that area. We will be ok.

    IMG_3610.JPG IMG_3611.JPG IMG_3612.JPG IMG_3614.JPG IMG_3617.JPG Think I tagged roughly 40, from 3 inch diameter to 18 inch. Got 32 done. We had four saws running for about two hours, counted 13 tanks of gas. Then some good chili and cornbread. Delish!

    Indeed it is a sad time to see such destruction. Our woods looked like that and still does in some spots but we keep whittling them down little by little.

    Nice deck off the back of the house. I bet it is beautiful out there on a summer morning.

    To bad about the Ash trees.
