I am saddened to hear we lost Jinman...
I watched the same movie as Drew about the Franklin Co. Bootleggers on Saturday
Yesterday I broke out the Stihl Farmboss and dropped a large and very dead mimosa folia, a 50' sweet gum, and some nuisance dogwoods. Some of the wood is destined for the wood stove, much of it for the bonfire.
Limbing with a 20" farmboss is exhausting... I am so sore today...
Be well all,
David

MS 290 with a 20" bar. I bought it back in Spring of 2011 I believe...
It is an awesome saw (better than I am).
But by 4:30pm yesterday I think it weighed 2,000 lbs...

Good Morning. 1130, partly cloudy, 91F {110 heat index} with 68% humidity. Forecast high of 92F with 80% chance of thunderstorms this afternoon, and a low of 71F tonight.
I have my lifting and the rest of my AM workout done, and a couple of chores ahead that require me cranking the truck. While I'm out I think I will drive over to the pond and see how the water level is doing. The purple hull peas also need picking again. I was able to give away Friday's picking, so at least I didn't have to shell them.
David {MFW} the trunks of those dogwoods make good ax, hoe and shovel handles. The are very strong, but have a little give to them. My blind great uncle used to keep everyone in the neighborhood supplied with handles he carved from dogwood trees.
Drew, I hate you had to give your tractor away. Tractors are the one item where my Want verses Need meter is a little out of whack. But glad you were able to give it back to your Friends. They will think of you every time they mow.
Hope everyone has a good day.

and the rest makes wonderful firewood and kindling; great hardwood.
but always sad to see a dogwood go, but they don't seem to be very long lived and at least once we had to replant all of them on the farm I grew up on when they all died of some blight. But oh the firewood.
Stopped raining here for a bit but looks to start up again. All this water is headed North up the coast.
they just put a flood watch up here for another one to three inches after 3.34 inches yesterday

75F and partly cloudy @ 20:00 ...
On the first cup ... have to get moving here in a few and run down to Harbor Freight for an 8" C clamp to do the last weld on the conduit driver cup bit ...
Wife picked up the ground bar @ Home Depot earlier today.
Got the MMM taken off and the loader put back on this morning.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 56° with mostly clear skies. Heading to 77° with a mix of sun and clouds. Back to cutting lawn again. It should slow down growing later this week. Temperatures will be in the sixties.
Good Morning All.

It's hard to believe summer is over Fall appears to have fallen early for sure. With the abundant rain we have had the leaves should be beautiful

Feel some better today but still no taste and lots of coughing. Wife is now entering the rough stage of this sickness. Hopefully nobody on here gets this it's the sickest I've been in a long time

66 this AM when I left for the retired day job. Saw the moon last night, big bright, took a deep breath and enjoyed the light on the pastures. No moon this AM, cloudy. Looked at the drainage gully as I left, thanks to my neighbor "landscaping" his yard over the last few years, I got a ton of water coming through my hay field, and the tractors are making huge ruts out there. If it dries up some more, I have got to figure out a way to move the water along. I just shake my head at the way some people think. Anyway, I will have to get the boots on and the weed whacker ready.
