Not tractor related, but another logging death

Man killed in Auburn logging accident
This happened about a mile from where I grew up, we used to ride bicycles and snowsleds in the gravel pits.

People in that industry should switch pay rates with cops, as for a dangerous profession if you ask me.

My lady friend was screaming at me on the weekend as I was cutting down a tree. She seemed to think there was some danger, as there was a group of trees leaning against each other. Anyway, I was oblivious to her screaming and fortunately nothing bad happened.

Any time a person who is not working on a job is there, they need to be far enough away to be clear of any movement planned or not. A simple observer often has no idea of the danger or possible danger nor how large the area is. Had friend whose son who grew up around big rigs got killed basically same way. Very sad.
