Whooo wheeeee we are having fun. I was allowed to play Paul Bunion (not to be confused with Paul Bunyan) for three and a half hours. We got most of the back yard cleared, except for some big branches leaning on the 8 foot Stockade fence. Possibility of injury is about 10% chance, so screw it let the pros handle it. Old geezer here ready to let a pro show me how to do it. It will be way cheaper than a ER visit.
We have one 12 or 15 foot long pile out by the curb. The good news is we have a wide front yard along the street. We will need it. The front yard starts tomorrow and all weekend likely.
The new chain saw is of course not here, but my trusty 35 year old 8 inch electric chain saw is still a real cutup. So far I have been cutting mostly Crape Myrtle and Lace Bark Elm. Both are pretty soft wood. The lace bark elm that is in our neighbors yard dropped a lot of limbs. It is really amazing how much a small limb covered in leaves and packed FULL of seeds weighs. Astonishingly heavy.
