I can't make myself stop cutting!

[Rebelduckman]

Well truth is I ain't really trying too hard to stop. It's getting hot and humid down here but I'm still at it. Took this cherry down yesterday morning. I wont be happy until I'm a full 3 years ahead. I'm about two at the moment.

Cut on brother. Cut on.

Do you guys have a lot of bugs down there when it gets hot? If the world suddenly lost all its bugs I wouldnt care how hot it got, its the bugs that drives me away from the treeline. I have one horse I cant ride in the woods in the summer, the bugs drive him totally bonkers. He becomes dangerous with his bad attitude. I give up on wood processing when the sweat is running in my eyes and insects are knawing on every bit of exposed skin.

Mississippi, you know they have bugs there when it gets warm and humid.

But as far as the wood cutting goes I would keep up the good work. Looking at the stacks of wood does give a feel of satisfaction.

Oh yea but when you've dealt with it all your life, it's second nature and not that big a deal.

Holy cow Rebel...if you didn't have the disease with the 17, you sure have it with the 13!! Keep on "treating" it.

 

[Longstreet]

Cherry is always the best.

The burner in me says, split and stack it.

The cook in me says, get a pig and smoke with it.

The woodworker in me says, let it grow and then mill it.

Hard choices to make!

It is a hard habit to break ain't it.

3 years ahead is good planning. Once you get there you'll still want to break out the saw... but you won't be on a timeline, at least.

Great work! I'm heading into my 2nd year and have just '14/'15 covered with a facecord or so of mixed Pine/BL/Maple stacked in rounds for '15/'16 and a neighbor with a downed Bradford Pear to process. You're ahead of me and I know how hard I've worked. Great job!

 

[PSYS]

I'm in the same mode right now. I'm not stopping for anything.

 

[Bret Chase]

I've got 9+ chord stacked.... my lawn has my attention now

Yes it is! And I tend to agree, love running the Stihl

I finally reached the point where the wife said that she thinks we have enough wood now. Then the municipality goes and cut down a huge bluegum just around the corner from me. My front lawn is now filling up with scrounged wood again.

 

[Missouri Frontier]

keep up the cutting bud. luckily wood cutting is one of the healthiest addictions on the planet.

 

[jeffesonm]

they say if you let a chainsaw sit for too long the carb gets gummed up, so I figure the best way to prevent it is don't stop cutting.........

"I didn't do it for the wood, it was saw maintenance."

Nice work Rebelduckman, I wonder if the CDC knows about this disease, We have it up here in NNJ to, Actually come to think of it its probably in at least 3/4 of the country, plus Alaska.
