Rick, good to see you're back sawin'...even if it's in this 'balmy-perfect-sawin'-weather' we've been having...:monkey:

The heat almost got me a couple of weekends ago. I was falling (boy do I have a lot to learn) and bucking some firewood. I started at just after first light, but had some trouble getting the second tree down and I started getting dizzy and light headed. After a lot of praying and talking to myself, I made it home, parked the truck in the yard, got in the house and fell asleep on the living room floor for almost 4 hours. I had drank lots of water (and a little Gatorade) and took breaks...but the heat got to me.

I have bad heat cramps every night it stinks. One thing and I truly mean this take breaks extended let shirt begin to dry before doing more you just can't push it in 100 plus heat. I climbed two pines and cut them in pieces today 4 hours working time and 4 break time. I used their water hose and rinsed my arms and head each time my feet hit the ground.

Yep, I need to take longer breaks. In the past, I have dumped water over my head...and it did help...but I had less to drink.... If I have to cut in the heat again anytime soon, I'll have to get me another water cooler or 2.

My wife like to soak a towel in cool water and put it around her neck she says it helps but I told her I would never be able to keep it on and still work. I wish I could spring the dough for a porta cool, they are awesome but expensive too

I cleaned up two pines then loaded stump grindings on another job and split a half cord last hour of daylight. I will be splitting this weekend, I have around ten cords to split up going to try to get them split because I have three more big oaks to do soon I really got some take home wood this year lol. I will probaby have 50 cords by winter.
