Finally cut up and split a Chestnut Oak that had fallen down about a year ago. It took WAY longer then I thought it would, but the wood will be really good in a year or two to use as Log home materials. About 24% water content now. We filled the entire wood shed that Patrick built last summer and put the rest up on pallets.

Dad & Mom also came down today and helped with the processing of a tree I cut down last week. We pulled the main trunk out with a chain and cut it up into sizes ready for the splitter. Great to have someone helping; otherwise, I would have had to continually switch from tractor to chainsaw to attaching chains all day. Afterwards Dad gave the new ATV a spin and then we relaxed on the porch enjoying the warm weather and a few cigar.
