Same Old, Same Old

I did a little chainsaw work today for our deer hunters, including a cull black cherry that endangered them in a prime location for hunting. I had a peaceful walk to spot trees that ought to be blocked up for firewood. One was a nice 10" diameter walnut that had the entire top knocked out by weather. Another is a recently fallen ash sawlog that will be prime firewood. This is prime time to make wood right now.  The weather is moderate and the ground is not muddy. Maybe we can get a few cords in the barn before we have snow. Back To The Old Grind!

Do you cut up any of the cherry or walnut for boards?

We had a timber sale in 2012. We have to cut a few trees that make sawlogs, and I give those to a neighbor with a hobby sawmill. Here's one we did for him recently. We were cutting trees that were too close to a barn. https://studio.youtube.com/video/tObxW31SD0M/edit
