I have yet to see this in Connecticut, but hopefully it happens :yes: Aurora Borealis Forecast: Possibility to See Northern Lights in CT – NBC...

Well now, I can’t listen to metal, punk rock and outlaw country all the time, can I? Sometimes it’s nice to switch gears :cool: Dare I say I think...
Cool! Stranger yet, usually apples need another apple tree nearby to pollinate it, as many varieties of them aren’t self pollinating. I wonder if...
If I ever want to know where the rocks are in my yard I just start pounding those posts in at random :hair:
I've never seen that before either. I know apple seeds need to be cold stratified before they sprout, so I'm guessing your apples were in cold...
Today's forecast is calling for highs in the low 70s, which hasn't happened since sometime in June. All that's left to do before I light my stove...
Wet sanding is good to keep the paper from clogging up, and it pays to buy the good wet/dry paper. 3M is decent and readily available. Start with...

Never heard of “saddles” on a tree either. My guess is where the trunk breaks off into large limbs.
My pile of elm rounds is growing :) I’m going to end up making a “bin” of sorts by adding a vertical pallet on the open end, bracing it, and...
Horse chestnut
There’s still about 15 feet of larger trunk section left, all down the bank in the woods. A lot of work to heft large(ish) rounds out of there. I...
A small load today. I saw sparks on the last cut, then it wouldn’t cut at all. No file with me to field dress the chain :hair: Oh well, I’m a...
