Helping Out My Neighbor

    Heard a saw fire up and a branch hit, head outside and my Neighbor is trimming up his maple. Next thing I know, I've got my 034 fired up and there is a small load in the back of Henry. Not sure where I'm going to stack it,'but it's mine now.

    That looks more like a trunk of a tree than a limb. Anyway, good of you to lend a helping hand. That bit of maple may keep you warm for a couple nights.

    One of the lower limbs, they get pretty massive. The trunk is about 30 inches.

    I would call that a respectable find. Good of you to help the neighbor.

    This is the same neighbor that helped me mow the semi-abandoned property behind my place when it was insanely overgrown.

    It usually pays to help out a neighbor.

    Right where I want to be.
    You know, I've asked and asked, but they keep refusing to pay me.

    All pay is not with dollars! (Sometimes it's pennies.)
