So I got busy this morning...
For those that think I'm on the computer too much, here is my business this morning. Wanton destruction of Mother Nature runs deep in my blood. It's ancestrally genetically imprinted.
I burned a pile about this size yesterday, about a week old it was so dry it burned to nothing left. I'm trying to beat the burn ban before it is instituted. These are all trees that have grown up too close to out buildings, fences and other trees.
Actually it is somewhat satisfying to know that after all this time in the classroom and in an air conditioned job at the hospital I can turn in a mornings hard labor with a chainsaw and axe. I did a good bit with an axe, I think the air filter clogged on the chain saw and sweat was running in my eyes so I could not see how to take it apart to clear the dirt. May be later after lunch I will take a look.
I was able to store up a few sticks of fire wood and use some more long pieces to border areas according to my crazy man landscaping plan. So not all will go up in smoke uselessly.
When cutting in the woods you do have to keep an eye out for these guys.
