It’s also known (by some) not to load up the stove entirely with manzanita, it’ll burn too hot. A long time ago my cousin did that, and they had all the windows and doors open to cool the house down.

I pushed through a lot of it making the water tank road.
I’ll pull some out too. You don’t want manzanita stumps where you might drive a car or pickup, it’ll destroy the tires. Ask me how I know.
I did a lot of thinning here, I don’t want it so thick that you can’t walk through.
When the loader was down for the engine swap, we hauled it to the burn pile with the trailer. Not my preferred method.
You can see some manzanita in the burn pile, we have to wait a long time to get near enough to push stuff in to where the fire is. Too hot, even with a long pusher stick.
Hadn’t heard that, it reminds me of SanFrancisco. People from there call it The City.
How do mountains move around?
I can’t believe you did that, lol
What don‘t you believe? I won’t do that with my loader, I don’t want it to get crushed. Maybe not likely, but stranger things have happened.

Very carefully.
What cut was that? I bet it turned out great.
Bone in Boston butt. It was awesome, had the neighbor over for dinner. Didn’t take any pics shredded, we were hungry!
Thanks Steve, and everyone else.@rarefish383. Happy birthday Joe!!
Little over 4 hours I was smoking on the higher side 250-275 this way the skin gets nice and crispy

Snowpack melted for me to set up. Rails coming tomorrow so I can mill some beams for a tiny cabin build.
How big is a tiny cabin?

I prefer 100 year averages.
If that is a long bed you can carry 6 at a time. Put the tailgate down and double stack them. Then strap them all together and down to the bed corners. I have 10 of those and love using them for my split wood. If you get some liners you can cut them diagonally and use them for covers.

Small enough to fit on a trailer
Careful doing that kind of crap when the tree leans heavily towards the tractor. I've seen too many videos of things going wrong real quickly. That was one of the reasons why I bought a logging winch. My tractor is way too valuable to be playing games with it. Not to mention my life.
Happy Birthday Joe
This one is for you Stihl guys. I have a MS210C that won't idle for ****. I took the original carb apart and soaked it for a week in carb cleaner. Put it back together and the saw just doesn't idle right no matter what I do to it. It revs up great and WOT is fine. When idleing it the revs go up and down slightly and it makes the chain spin. The motor is running like it is in a loping mode. If I lower the rpm's it stalls. I picked up a China carb and have the same issue with that carb. Turning the H and L screws does affect the saw running with either carb installed. Could it be an air leak? If I bring the rpm's up off idle the saw runs great but the chain is also spinning.
Sounds like an air leak to me.
