Looks like a super split. Pretty ingenious!
He’s gots them long hollow legs to fill ya know!
Yep tree growth is a slow affair no matter how you look at it. The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago as the old timers used to say.
Yes and sometimes Siberian elm as well. Though slippery and Siberian are less susceptible to it. The difference between DED and the ash borer is...

We are kindred spirits when it comes to trees. I’d much rather climb them than cut them down. I will happily admit when a problem tree needs to go...
Thanks Brian! I ate a whole rack by myself.
Almost forgot the money shot! They were very good[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I’ll turn the bones into broth in the crockpot. It’s wicked good in soups,...
