    Looks like a nice little field for growing a crop of some sort.

    It's a front yard in a bit of a weird situation. Most of that yard is owned by a golf course up the road. Me and my neighbor mow it, and I am on great terms with the golf course, him so-so... I have 7 acres of my own if I ever made time to grow stuff. I dont get help often, and work full time 45 minutes away.

    The cordwood saw is looking for a new home. Missing 3 teeth, still works good.

    Thats a big un...the tree and the saw bar. Yeah as jo191145 said looks are deceiving. Always hard to tell in pics how big a tree or log is. Probably a couple cord in that one.
    Nice work sir! :thumbs:

    Way to rub it in lol. We worked in the underbrush & power lines all day clearing a building lot. That open lawn with no obstructions looks real nice about now. Cabled/winched over 12 trees & barely made a dent. That's a beautiful Oak & some great btu's. Nice work.

    Hoard on!

    I saw a bald eagle today too. Really clean, bright white head and tail. So cool.

    We have quite a few bald eagles in the area being close to the Mississippi River. Saw a bald eagle the other day along the road eating on a deer carcass.

    Always nice when you have a clear area to drop them.
