that truck looks really good. Did your neighbors run out of paint or gumption (Trim on second story)?Neil how's this. I was thinking about lettering it AS Logging. I have binder chains for it, but I have to paint them black.
Bad wind storm, it's siding blown off.

Damn.
Big sky day here today so I figured I'd go help my buddy instead of waiting for my phone to ring from King Di ck lol
One of the takedowns was this maple , failure , was not an option .
The extra help climbed it and tied off the top , I dropped it and didn't have to call "Live at 5" to be famous lol
Yes , it rolled downhill after we cut the branches and then even further when I started to block it up
We dropped another maple and some yellow birch then I went down to that driveway , busted up the rounds and loaded the trailer , had to noodle the crotches to get them to split
T'was a good load

Snow is melting and will be a sloppy mess for a while so scrounge related activity will have to wait. On the plus side, haven’t had to have a fire in the stove for a couple days.
Still burning here, spoused to be sunny and 15C here tomorrow, be the warmest day of this new year [emoji41]

I think you might have overloaded your vehicle, Joe. Watch out that you don't get booked by the cops.

Hey, Canada. You do know that's not normal, right?
I have a friend in North Dakota from my time working up there who is a huge Chiefs fan. I always invite him down for a game and ask if he knows that life outside that hellhole is much different. Like most people I met up there, he's never been as far south as Iowa. That's how they keep people up there; they don't know any better.
Hell, they don't even have a tree in the whole state.

Been real busy with spring cleaning. Maybe cut some wood next week. Have about 2/3 of my pole building cleaned and my largest shed is cleaned too. Just the tool shed and single stall garage to go after the pole building is done.
My buddy showed up. This guy is 5 or 6 years old now. I worry every year will be his last.

Headed back to the spot with the locust in the morning. Hope the above pic turns into a truck load or two of locust and mulberry.
I need to clean out the little garage so I can get my work benches back!
Gol darn squirrel got into my shed. Luckily he ate a kickboard for his nesting material. Found his entry hole, shoved it full of steel wool and then boarded it off. Bastige!
lol must have been half pack rat...
That sob hauled dozens of pine cones in through that little hole too.
Might have been that cute little chipmunk.
Score a mile from home. Best part is he offered just to call me next time instead of posting on Craigslist. Looks like I may have a new friend. 
And a bonus load from another CL post on Friday night commute home.

They nest underground and also hibernate. The squirrels do this as I’ve seen them.
It is out, and has been, the release was quite a while ago. They have not been released in the states yet but a few guys have spent the cash to get them here sooner than this fall which is when they are due to be released here.
