It's been a great summer camping, going to kids ball games and currently doing the fair(daughter is a big "rabbit rancher"), but it finally got dry enough in my woods to haul a couple loads of ash out. And let me tell ya... It felt great! Although half soggy bucked 20" rounds of ash don't split for rabbit poo with the fiskers
Wondertool so I had to break down and use the power splitter for the first time in a year. I felt so guilty I whacked a sweaty hour the next night on the last 8 rounds but the stacks are now seasoning the last 3 months before winter. Enough rambling. I'll see if I have a pic or two worth posting. Add some of your own so I know what the AS boys have been up to!

Warms my heart to see a child being brought up to pee off the deck.

As my mother still loves to tell people..."Well Ben was tree trained before he peed in the toilet." Thanks Mom.

Looks like you are having a good time with the family.
 
Wife did some babysitting for a couple of little boys. They had a potty tree and a potty rock in their back yard. Life is good in the country.
 
Other day I took the dog out and realized I had to pee too.

I thought about it after, "You might me a Redneck" haha.

Now I just need to learn how to do the "walking poops" haha. (Actually annoying my dog does that, makes cleaning up the yard before mowing a pain!)
 
I haven't done anything with my wood piles yet but I did look at the heap today and think "I've got to bring the tractor home and start stacking on pallets and get ready"
The wood in the heap isn't for this winter but I would like to neaten it up.

When the kids had a senior high school party for graduation, one of the moms collected a treasured photo from each of the parents of the kids past, and had them blown up black/white poster size. They were all displayed together where everyone could guess who went with which photo. Lots of fun.
