G'day fellers, and Jeff, hope you're convalescing well. Here are some pics from today's scrounge with Ross.

First downed peppermint. I knocked a few rounds off the top stem but the rest was lying a touch below ground level which would have meant cutting dirt to get right though.

So I moved on to the next one, a good size bifurcated peppermint, unfortunately both stems suspended so there was a bit of mucking around.

Once through at one point I was able to work my way up the right stem, then chocked it to get through the left stem.

All Limby action today.

It was getting pretty big by the time I arrived at the butt, Limby has a 25in bar. Mostly dry too.

Spent the last week cleaning up after crazy storm that hit us. I'm in yarra valley area and had no power for a couple of days. But nothing to complain about compared to the poor buggers in the Dandenong Ranges near us that will be without power for at least another 3 weeks....they have called in the army to assist with the clean up now...20210612_153304.jpgIMG-20210612-WA0007.jpg73f59aa0e14c4ab18be1ba4d950f2644.jpg40854b0cd6444d2f8cbcdaab131b32e1.jpg20210614_102343.jpg20210614_161344.jpg20210614_142732.jpg20210614_172628.jpgIMG-20210614-WA0050.jpgIMG-20210614-WA0052.jpg

No shortage of firewood.

I always enjoy seeing the types of equipment others use around the world.
Funny seeing Ace, I follow them on YouTube, they do some very big trees.
When the video first started I was like what are they doing on the wrong side of the road :lol:.
Be careful out there, storm damage is some of the worst cutting you can do :oops:.
 
Happy Father’s Day to all of you!

Brunch of chicken fried steak and eggs here. Steak and shrimp for dinner. Rainy day so we’ll be doing some house cleaning inside.
Happy Father's day to all the fathers we have....... work had eggs, bacon, and hash browns for breakfast to day. Lol love the new job, hate working weekends.

Man those are big rounds.
 
Thanks for all the pics, love it! I'll be spending Father's Day on a diet of sipping clear liquids which does include black coffee (how I like it). To all the dads and grand dad's out there, have a great day!

That's some serious storm damage. Was it thunderstorms and straight line winds or tornadoes? Be safe, that's some big wood you're working with!
