    I spent my Sunday felling 3 lemon scented gumtrees and 1 golden wattle. The wattle was storm damaged and hanging over a neighbouring property's fence and driveway so it was done piece by piece starting with my pole saw and arborist saw then 365 and ms660 I had a smile and sun on my face, it was 64F but that's hot when your stuck in a 4' x 4' bucket up in the air for an hour.

    Now I'm wishing I had put on som SPF 40. (Sunburnt)

    Yesterday ( Saturday), my 9 yr. old son had me out sledding 4 times. All I am going to say about that is that sledding is harder on a person than running a chainsaw.

    Had a busy weekend here it was all work but I think of it as play. Saturday I Sold this IMG_20131001_185306_405.jpg and moved this IMG_2283.JPG into the garage and reorganized everything to start working on it. Then in the afternoon me and my little guy cleaned up around the wood pile, set up some pallets for future stack holding and I had a little play time with my other new toy when he went in for his nap IMG_2316.JPG Today I was in the garage around 6 am did some maintenance on the boat, tinkered with the new project tractor, cleaned and sharpened the Pro Mac 650, Dolmar 133 and the little Husky 445. We went for breakfast and bowling and for groceries afterward then the real play began!
