Time well spent. Believe me when I say those memories made will mean a lot as you go on through life. The best memories I have with my father are of times spent in the outdoors. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

There were some locals here who used to enjoy traveling to Idaho to hunt but they’ve pretty much given up on that now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

When I was younger there were a couple of older gentlemen living in our small town and I would take fire wood to them. It was always a fun time when I went down with a load. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s called a Jaw Boss. Works on the smaller logs to keep them off the ground. Saves on chain wear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I normally cut on the homestead, but the state forestry opened up some cutting areas close to home. Hard to pass up good wood that is easy to get to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got a couple of 757s but don’t run them often as there isn’t much big wood available. If nothing else I think they sound great when they are running. I have run a 36” bar with a skip tooth before but it really rips with a 24”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Been trying that a little at a time. Some of these today were really beaky so went back and adjusted to try and remove some of it. Seems a little adjustment goes a long way with these. I’m having fun if nothing else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can see where having decent eyesight would be very helpful. Struggling here with old eyes that never were good to begin with. Since I had the wheel so thin and didn’t have any more 3/8 to play with I tried to do a .325. Still a little beak but to my untrained eyes I am hoping it was a step...
