...fluidity of movement. By golly Bob, that's just downright poetic.

PS...your education is showing but since you're a pretty good cutter we won't hold it against you.

Ha! I was on an exhaustion high. My body had given up, but my brain still saw the colors. A few weeks off of normal logging operations and i am WAY out of shape.

Sweet gum and yellow pine are the only trees that listen to me at all.

Maybe you should let yer wife talk to them first?

Thats true. Basswood doesn't chair but will pull like mad. Aspen too. They will split, just not chair prone. I feel pretty old n stiff by the time i go to bed every night.

hahahaha.......just wait a few more years lol.

haha yeah sure is fun, no limbs until the top log and I only sharpen once in the morning keeps me going until lunch, I'm running my own skidder now so I skid for the rest of the day.

First time I cut spruce though brittle and flexible at the same time took a little bit to get used to it, I lost a tree over backwards wedging to aggressively and I've pulled some nice swings at the same time..I'm getting in the groove now and definitely enjoying spruce now.

I know of a couple in Wisconsin. They look more like Eastside DF though.

Yep I've seen some stands here too. Biggest one maybe 30" on the stump. Probably only 75' tall or so.
