Mr. Gordon, you can always blame the "slower moving and heavier cable" on the heat!

(But at least you are out doing it!!!)

Still whittling away at the storm downed red oak on my neighbors property. Been working it in in between projects.

I don't know - I've been told that I'm not as hot as I used to be...........

Reminds me of a story from last summer: I was clearing for a new trail in some 90˚ & humid weather. Ordinarily, I would have just waited for cooler weather, since I'm not doing this work professionally. However, we needed to get the clearing done in time to meet the window in the excavator's schedule who was coming in to de-stump and grade the trail. So I had spent the day slogging through the work. I was drenched from head to toe, grubby, dehydrated and exhausted. I stopped at the gas station to fill up on the way home. A local friend drove by and commented to her son: "Is that John? He looks HOT!" To which her son (never one to miss a chance to rib his mom) replied: "Oh mom, that's just completely inappropriate!"

It was FIREWOOD day, and my friend and me, went to the woods to "scrounge" up some firewood. I knew where I had some wood stockpiled, so we got started, with me bringing the wood to my friend and him cutting it over my wagon,

I kept bringing them, and he kept cutting, it sure takes a LOT of work out of firewood to cut over a wagon or trailer!

This oak has been down for a year or so, so it's already started to dry,

The last load we cut for me, so this load was for my friend,

So, I pulled it home and got set up, and we then split the whole load,

and my friend ended up with a nice load of splits!

We have more out there to cut/split and even to skid, but that's for another day!

Whitbread, I think you could use a little more weight on that trailer. :ROFLMAO: Nicely done!
