Come to think of it, there was a smaller earthquake in southeast CT a few days ago. Then a couple weeks ago there was another one in central CT. I...
So of course this morning when the earthquake hit here in Connecticut, I was running my wood splitter and didn't notice a thing. Engine running,...
I'm a huge fan of trees already on the ground (95% of my firewood supply was acquired this way) With all of the dead trees around here something...
Glad you got a kick out of it :) I'm big into forest forensics in my area too. I love finding old homesites, abandoned civilization, wolf trees,...

Man I'm glad it's just a multi-day rain event here. I already took the plow off my tractor and put the snow shovels away :whistle:
I really pushed myself Friday-Tuesday processing/moving firewood, with a little hiking thrown in the mix. By Monday morning I woke up limping...
I started moving the cells that had sprouted into solo cups, as they were starting to touch the clear plastic lid. When transferring into the cups...
