well, I don't know about the others reading this thread... but if nothing else... imo, you clearly have a way of taking good care of equipment. I never seen a tractor with 500 hrs looking like it just won
in the local Sunday Show n Shine down at the park for Best Paint! ... and a trailer to match! I mite be tempted to call 'foul' lol 
but if the claw is a month old... kinda blows that theory out of the water... 
why the seat don't even look like ever been sat in. and footwells, no mud, no sawdust... just shiny n new looking black! well... what can I say?! pix speaks for itself...
Hi Nomad, I'm from Lancaster County too, grew up along the river, and my Dad still lives there on a hill top overlooking the Safe Harbor Dam and Turkey Point:
I visit him regularly, and cut firewood for him. But, I moved to northern Chester County almost 40 years ago where I stumble around on this wooded hilltop every day now.
During summers in highschool I worked as a very unskilled laborer building the Middle Creek Water Fowl museum, which must be in your Brickerville back yard.
By the way, were you at the PA GTG last Spring, might have met you there? And, are you or FarmerSteve aware of another GTG this year?

Getting the itch. Guy from work already asking about some firewood for next year. Supposed to freeze hard tonight -9c so maybe (puhleeeese gawd!) the ground will be hard enough for me to get to my downed trees.
In the meantime I have been rebuilding my boat trailer and have replaced the transom wood on the "SS Wood Nazi" I'm getting close to completion on that project too. Scored a good deal on a trolling motor (sorry @chipper1 ) and a battery. Looking forward to trying it out!

With the new "desk job" Im getting a little soft, I need the outdoors to fill my lungs again. I can't wait for spring, the cabin, and the smell of two stroke!

Be careful. A desk can kill you just as sure as a rotten tree. LOL
Nice afternoon in the woods.
Cut some trees, did some timed cuts (having issues uploading the video), and enjoyed the fresh air.
Started with this mostly dead aspen.
Then this maple that was slowly tipping over.
This maple was dead and mangled and the big birch finished off the one decent limb.
This threw me for a loop but saw was ok. Luckily had another saw to free it.

Can't forget the saws and scenery.
nice foto essay there, svk. enjoyed the show. I have been there... same snow, same pines, same trees, same snow covered, untracked road... years ago... with my dad deer hunting... as a youth... Oregon I think it was... same scenes... only the times have changed.
ps: I could feel the cold in the pix filtering on down to here in grow zone 9a... we did get hail today... nice sunny snow pix. I like nice sunny and mountainside snow pix...
that heart-shaped chunk would be a keeper for me... I would have to have it around camp for awhile... just to look at it often. quite a twist to how it grew!
There's a couple feet of that heart shaped wood. I'll bring it home next time and see what I might be able to make with it.
When I dropped the bigger birch there was a total white out as it swiped the snow off nearby trees.
Heck yeah!
I've got the walleyes dialed in until mayfly hatch. Some good pike lakes too if you want some pickling filets.
Hey, what is that white stuff??? Never mind, we may get some tomorrow! All the flowers have started blooming here already, and the Spring Peepers are in full concert! They were so loud outside the house I was at in North Salem on Thursday night you would not believe it!
Cleaned up the saws last night and left them on the floor in the sauna overnight to dry off.
Back in the garage, until next time.
