    Had a local tree service out today to take care of a problem oak leaning on the corner of the house. Guys gave me a really good deal and got it down in a pretty open space to process it. Made a few cuts this afternoon, forgot how heavy oak is!

    That looks like a nice big pin oak. Lots of good wood in that!
