I DON'T EVEN BURN WOOD
I was at the shop today where I helped a friend install a owb and was eyeing up lots of trees we need to cut down before winter. It's going to be a while before I get to cut again. :msp_angry:

Everything I cut was red oak larger than 20", most between 25 and 30". I had no noodle all of it into manageable sized pieces. Needed a BIG saw for todays project, Sarah spent the day honing her skidsteer skills.

I DID run the 2153 through a few small logs, but I really need the skid steer practice...I've some challenges with the whole hand eye foot coordination. :msp_unsure:
It was also nice to have a visit from dieselfitter! We very much enjoyed taking a sawing/splitting break to get to know a fellow AS'r a little better!

Was too busy cutting to take many photos, but . . .
I am running my dads echo twin cyl in this picture. What a smooth running saw. Scott got it running again, thanks Scott. I am on my way to my dads right now to surprise him with it, he lives exactly 100 miles from me. We are gonna do a little shooting this afternoon. Always a good time hanging out with the old man, he like chainsaws and guns, wonder where I picked up my habits.

One pic from Saturday. Scott seems to almost like climbing the elevator to un jam it:
While we were working, my buddy was down on Lake Pepin fishing, 28 1/2" 'eye:

Just got home nice 9 hour drive. Didn't have to stop for gas once and enjoyed using the heater for an hour or so. I had a blast it was pretty awesome to see those big white pines. Long night's shooting the breeze and talking about saws. Learned some stuff ate some good food and picked up a couple projects. Never fails if there's room in the car I manage to bring more saws home.:msp_w00t:

Just left my dads house. We talked about chainsaws and guns, and we ran the echo twin, and I shot a remington model 700 .350 and a winchester .25wssm. I think I'm gonna use tba winchester for deer hunting this year. Had a good time hanging out with my dad.

Thanks Sarah and Andy, it was nice to take a break and visit. I got back to work after our visit and got 12 stumps ground this weekend.
If you've never been to Andy and Sarah's, it pretty neat. They have plenty of toys to play with, too many to list. Their hard work has been well rewarded. I don't know where they find the time to keep everything maintained let alone time to go out and play with it.

My face is broken Scott. That's the most I've smiled in a long time. Piped 064 cutting firewood was the most legal fun a guy could have.
I had fun this weekend. Thanks to everyone who made it and thanks to Scott for a place to stay and for the food. Got to put a few more faces to names as well. Got some pictures I'll try to get up tomorrow. Try to see if I can make it for another weekend but I'll just have to wait and see.
