    With winter around the corner, I have enough that needs tending to that I'll save these Cherry until spring.

    Maybe after my yearly checkup, I can get the wife to make some of what's in pic 9776. Last year I weighed about 230 going into my yearly checkup and this year my plans are for 215. I'm at 219 tonight.

    Pictures 9386 & 87 are the same Cherry which I might have already taken care of but will check this week. Pictures 9403 & 08 is the Cherry that's sitting on top of a Maple.

    We have a nice size Cherry down up the hill from pictures 9403 & 08 that I plan on getting a picture of and I also plan on getting this spring.

    Get out there and hit it hard on that cherry then you can have those rolls and still make weight.

    I should be at that weight by the 18 of December if not sooner. If I didn't have a bunch of splitting to do, I would be after it. We did more work around the house this summer/fall on the thinning of the pines so the hardwood had to wait.

    If we have a winter like the past two, I'll be working on a Cherry but not either of those. There's a much bigger one down on the ground that would be nice to start on.
