All that's left are a couple small (2-3" diameter) limbs and a fairly large trunk base, which is rotten in the center unfortunately. So I'm...
Not alien-related, but paranormal nonetheless: Bigfoot sighted in Connecticut again I'm more worried about running into another human in the woods...
Thanks, I thought so too :handshake: This’ll keep me out of trouble for a while :)
There’s still some white oak to be picked away at, but this is the last of the really nice sections. I then topped off the load with whatever...

That's not half bad! Little bit of built in kindling but not too much of a hairball mess.
This is a nice surprise. Last fall I collected a couple hundred dogwood “berries” from various wild trees and tossed them here. I kind of forgot...
