Sundays Work.

[thewoodlands]

Went back up in the same area that I worked Saturday and finished some good size quaking aspen plus some hard maple, the aspen will be used for 2011-2012 shoulder season.

Both Saturday and Sunday not one deer fly or any skeeters.

OK, gotta ask . . . I keep looking at the final pic and have to know . . . why is the wood turned upright . . . were you using the wood as "stepping stones" so you didn't trample the nearby plants?

Smokin it's quaking aspen and then the only real good hardwood was the sugar maple that was down.

Not sure why I did that Jake, that was the last tree of the day so I was getting tired so I turned one up so the old bones could rest then decided I would turn them all like that. I wish the hard maple was that size!
