    The big ones make a nice noise when they fall. Nice job.

    Nice, looks like you have plenty of saw for that sucker! Lots of splitting in your future.

    Then you realize how dense and heavy the stuff is - it'll be worth it in 3+ years;)
    Hope you have some hydros to split, noodling all those big rounds is a waste of time and chains
