. Good to have heavy iron for a task.
Yes, the cattle now have lots of edges to polish up. I didn't get a picture of it, but this guy was pushing on the stump and had the whole thing rocking back and forth. True story, but I have to disclose that the stump is high centered, I can spin it around with my tractor. I had some people in buying hay and they were amazed at how strong the bull was. I didn't tell them the stump was high centered. Stump's size perspective with the animals next to it.
I wish the climate was the same as it use to be which was colder. The last 10 years our weather here in east coast Canada has been changing. Our winters instead of starting in November, now starts late December and runs later in spring. Winter seems to have shifted at least a month later and is warmer. Instead of cold and snow, we now we get snow, then rain, then freezing which is hard on wildlife when they get wet, creates too much ice, freezing rain is worse to work in than cold and snow removal is alot harder with heavy wet snow. Give me dry, cold weather with snow any day.
We're getting the same crap on the west coast. It's the 3rd week of January and almost all of our snow is gone. For the last 3 weeks or more we've had freezing rain and a few sprinkles of snow. Our driveway was iced so bad I couldn't drive on it for over a week. I eventually had to sand the whole thing (1.5 Km). Last year at this time I was plowing and blowing snow. I miss that.
Yes it is really strange. I don't think I have seen a winter like this. I spent a couple of weeks up your way. Well actually on Pinantan Lake. We did a siding job for a friend of my brothers. Beautiful area. That was in 1981 maybe 1982. I was 17 years old. Man that is a long time ago.We're getting the same crap on the west coast.

Same here. I have not been able to get out in the woods much with my tractor this winter. Fortunately, we did get enough of a freeze after the Dec 23 windstorm that I was able to get out with it and clear the trails - what a tangled mess. Mostly white pines.
Same here. I can only use my Honda Forman ATV so I have my bike decked out for logging and ready to go. Saws on the front rack, tools, wedges, hooks in the cargo box and gas and oil on the passenger foot rest area. The Honda allowed me to at least get something done despite the unfrozen ground. The wife on the other hand.... well I haven't found a work around for that yet. Let me know if you find a fix for that. lol
Nice neat job. Nice clean wood.
