Hi all! Spent that day in the woods at work. Dropped a mid-sized yellow birch, beech, and two red maples. Tough going - tight woods and trees getting hung up. Luckily, great guy at work grabbed the tractor and yanked 'em down for me. Spent the next several hours bucking, splitting (except the beech - the tree was real tough - it'll meet the hydraulics), and hauling load after load, with my kid's snow sled, to a spot where I can back the truck to. We are supposed to get 14" of snow, starting tomorrow night. Will be up bright and early to haul the wood to the house. Luckily, I live about 5 min from work - makes getting the wood not too much of a hassle. Looks like this is the only wood I'll get from this spot till spring - I think the trails to the woods will finally be snowed in. Will post a pic tomorrow (if I remember the camera!). Cheers!
