    Made a little more progress on the walnut at my sisters house this morning. There's still a lot of wood there, not even counting the 4' diameter trunk. Firewood and lumber.

    I selected and cut a truckload of firewood for my BIL while he loaded, then we loaded up my trailer with some of the smaller saw logs.

    There's another 2-3 loads for each of us there - of firewood for my BIL and small logs for my mill. My Dad stopped by and he's going to bring over his FEL and dual axle trailer, so hopefully we can get the rest of it cut back to the trunk next time.

    Yeah, I forgot to get any pics of what's left of the tree - it was this monster, if you haven't seen it: :D

    Nice load there. That walnut is definitely going to give a whole lotta of wood at the end of the day. I'm thinking you'll either love the smell of walnut by the time you get done with it or despise it.
