Near perfect day.

Snowmobile delivered me to the mill, tractor started right up, 13hp was happily purring away, log deck loaded.

Freshly sharpened band, chucking out 2x6's like a handful of spaghetti.

Then it happened.

Realized after an hour I wasn't wearing my long underwear. Too darn cold today to be without em!

But spending some extra time last night sharpening that band made that pine like butter

That'll motivate you to keep moving. Congratulations on a good day. They're the ones that keep us going on the tough days!

I was milling for a woodworker a couple of years ago. His spine was so arthritic, he looked like a question mark when he walked. I was hitting nails, the engine was running rough, and the solenoid for the hydraulic power feed (TimberHarvester) went out, and I was trying to finish up pushing it by hand. I muttered something about it being a bad day, and he just quietly asked, "would you like to trade one of your bad days for one of my good ones?" I shut up and went back to work.

Now that is something for us all to remember. Crane
