    It would appear that anyone on a diet didn't stand a chance! :D

    Glad I wasn't there then!

    My aching back is envious of all the help Dennis gets in exchange for letting all of you cretins squat on his land for a few days!

    That was amazing. Just before this we were waiting for chipper1 to come back but we did not realize he had already went back to the creek. So when I got back there he had already pulled the ash out of the creek and to my surprise he went down the lane along the creek and was working on that elm. I had not even asked him to do that one. Thank you chipper! You really outdid yourself last weekend and it was greatly appreciated just like all the rest of the gang. They were working men for sure and let's not forget Pam and Monika. Pam is the first one we got in picture with her running a saw while Monika worked with Jack Straw doing the splitting. What a group of fine folks!

    I don't remember if this was posted or not but it is part of the cleanup from Barcroftb and Armbru84 taking down that spruce tree over the weekend. I took 3 loads of branches like this in back. Notice the bare arms. Ice just a few days before this and then 70 degrees. Fantastic. They promise us more 70's next week.
