    Today's score, and I'm beat. Much more there if others don't get it first. Guy said another is coming down Friday, I'll be there. It's about 2 miles down the road.

    After this is split & stacked, I might just be able to upgrade my hoarder status.

    I'm thinking the same thing. Or else it could be the dreaded Elm!

    Silver maple.

    Thats the neighbors pond, it froze solid this year and I must have seen 50+ largemouth over 12" floating. That was sad. They're an older couple and they let me fish there, I might have to restock it this year.

    That's a big load on a 3500lb axle. I have the same trailer and load it the same way.

    Almost done image.jpg This is where I've been cutting lately. The big downed chunk you see there is what is left of the tree the guy dropping them bounced off the guys house! In the background is uncle neighbor lending a hand. I got about 6' off of the left end tonight, then I ran out of gas. This chit will either get me in shape or kill me.

    Oh yea, tree cutter didn't have insurance either!!
