I

Dropped a 27" white pine behind my house 2 years ago. I know the feeling of relief you must be feeling right now! I did it myself though and it took a few days to unclench. I pulled it down with my work truck... with paper dealership plates still on it. It was 15' from the back of my house... 😅 i did it semi right though. I had a 150' arborists rope and a snatch block.. went perfectly but by golly that was terrifying lol
I know what you mean, I have dropped countless hardwoods for firewood, but only dropped 3 tree's that could have hit anything, it was an accelerated heart beat moment

We need to build a wall along the border to keep their smoke, geese and black flies out. It’s an all out assault!

It's a different animal when it could end up in your living room 😂
 
KEVINS GETTING ACROS???? 😍

Side thought... i never really expected myself to become such a stick head when I first started and said I was "only going for LPS and easy sps" but now look at me..
I took his "stick boy" insult lightly when i said my AIO is SPS, guess its payback time
