    This sounds good. I won't bother suggesting the side yard, she might kill me.

    We still have some of the rounds in picture 0169 but I don't trust the tree in picture 0170. Where the limb broke off the main tree, it's very weak and rotten.

    There's still plenty of tree with leaves that is above the rotten area.

    We're hoping we get some kind of windstorm that would take it down, it's just off the main trail but we have a secondary trail far enough away that is safe we can use in that area.

    Maybe you can have the wind we had today. Got up around 40 mph for a time.

    The 2nd picture is the load I brought to the splitting area yesterday, the 1st is the load from today which will also get split and the 3rd is what's left of the Maple I stacked yesterday.

    We're getting some rain but I'm sure this round won't last long.

    It rain quit already.
