Free wood clean up

[PA Fire Bug]

There is a place near my home that I drive past twice a day that is really run down. A couple of weeks ago, I got a call from the owner asking if I could remove some trees. The owner doesn't live in the place and is cleaning it up to sell it. I found a small barn that had four or five trees fall on it. The uprooted a couple of years ago during a storm. The good news is that the wood is off the ground is not rotting. It's going to take some work to clear the branches but there is a lot of wood - mostly cherry. It is good to be known as a guy who is always looking for more firewood.

I'm glad that I noticed the wire wrapped around this trunk before I started cutting. The tree was starting to grow around it.

Yep in any old fence lines you've got to beware.
