Cutting some wind falls from the thunderstorm last week. It was supposed to fall to the south but Decided to go north, trees just don't listen like they use to back in Washington. Anyway the local country hardware store had what I needed. It's 72 partly cloudy and a great day to clean the back 40. Posting for no reason at all except for general BS. The 16" echo has been a great saw last seven years and still going

I had to call the local tree service to take out trees last year. One was a pine on my side lot that had a pine beetle infestation and later on a storm split half of one of the large oak trees in same area. It was more than I could handle. Hope 2023 will be a better year.

Yeah, I’m a regular Paul Bunyan out away from any buildings but I had three trees to take out near my shop and was happy to pay a guy to drop them. Of course once they're on the ground this Paul Bunyan is all over them. HA!
Old brass, glad you got everything “straightened” out.
