TimberJacks are nice because of how little climbing a logger has to do to get in and out of the cab. Myself my knees hurt after awhile, not so...
Katie and our Charlie Brown Christmas Tree... [ATTACH]
We pick our own trees out of the forest so they tend to be Charlie Brown Christmas Trees, but we figure they are kind of like us. We are not...
I have sheep as well, but my logging is quite spread out in the forest, so I am not too concerned about them. Eventually it will be pasture, but...

I am supposed to manage for invasive species according to my Forestry Plan, and my forester's are forever getting after me for not doing so, or at...

I would not mind having one of these... [MEDIA]
Jeesh it is nice to know I am not the only one that runs over his chainsaws...and I am not color blind. (My father and sister are however). Sorry...
