Evening all! just got back from a family road trip to Florida. Took the kids to Disney and Universal Studios. I'll never go back to Disney... Those _$$-hats are acting more like communist china every day. But, we stayed over night on the way down in Gulf-Shores Alabama, and I will definitely go back there again! Also went to Cocoa Beach and swam for a bit, and that was great! Hayden is having another surgery this Thursday, (although Arthroscopic this time!!) because some of that tumor came back. We figured between the 'rona panic, and the pending surgery, we were getting the heck outta Dodge for a bit and enjoy some down time.
Dad and I also have been cutting Hedge on a property in a good friend's family that's only 8 miles away. I've hauled 2x dump trailers out and His Uncle has hauled 4x loads with a 6x10' dump. It's been a chore and a half though, as a tornado messed a lot of the canopies up, and entangled them. To remove one, you have to fell it, (about 1/2 way), make a cut about 2 log lengths up from the stump and cut through again to drop the butt on the ground, then hook on with the tractor and pull the m'fer outward, until it's on the ground... But, there's probably 12 more loads I'm going to knock out (or more), so it is what it is... Definitely a lot of analysis though, prior to making a felling cut, sizing up not only the tree, but the surrounding trees, an cutting escape paths.
How's everyone doing? Congrats Steve on your Daughter's wedding!!! I am both looking forward to and dreading that day myself.
