WOW! First we've been above freezing for some time now.
Put my Husky 394XP to work today in the blue sky and sunshine and bucked lengths to split and stack. I had 4 Ash trees I felled over Thanksgiving and this is the first opportunity I've had to buck them up. Had to plow the snow from around them to get some footing but hey ... I got out and cut them up. Worked up a bit of a sweat in the process and was wearing only a long sleeve T-shirt.
We've been pretty chilly for late fall and had quite a bit of snow to boot. Winter doesn't officially start for 2 more days. I ran a whole tank of gas through the 394 and it ran out when I ran out of wood to cut. Great timing. I tell ya that's as big a saw as I ever want to use bucking logs. Cutting son-of-gun with a fresh chain but a bit on the heavy side. That's the last I will use it this season so I will clean it and put it away until next cutting season.
The warming trend is supposed to continue through the weekend with rain the next 3 days and TEMPS IN THE 50s!!!. I have some time off over the Christmas break. If the word Christmas offended anyone tough ****. It's my holiday not yours. I hate this Happy Holidays crap. The Holiday is Christmas. I will get the wood split and stacked and hopefully post a few pics in the process.
The wife actually had the front door wide open today getting a change of air in the house. Had a fire but didn't really need it. Us Northerners are a pretty hardy bunch.
