Log Jam

August is a time for those late summer blooming flowers on the north coast to come to life. My front walk looks decorative and there is a sweet flowery scent along it.

Straight-Jacket download hose darn ash borer beetles blew out more than a couple dozen ash trees on my lot. To guard against a tree falling on the Amoka loft and smashing my windsurfers to smithereens I’ve called in the big boys. Amber Tree service has a 100 foot crane that can lift them around and control where they fall at. If you look close you’ll see a worker dangling from the crane end.
Having a wood burner I wanted the wood so now it’s time to fire up the chain saw and get busy. I’m now shopping for a wood splitter. In the past I just split logs up with a sledge axe but I’m not getting any younger so it’s time for hydralic power. Below you can see the on the right the small mountain of logs awaiting me. On the left the workers stacked all the small branches and trimmings which will be an equal challenging task to cut up. If I don’t answer the phone this fall .. well you know where I’m at.
