A friend of ours has about 30 acres and this last windstorm we had blew down about 25 trees on his place...wind gusts over 80 mph recorded in Lakeside for that storm. We helped him rebuild a shed that got destroyed so he is letting us get some firewood from the fir trees that blew down.
Was a pretty easy load to get since the trees were already down!
A couple of trees we will be removing

You have your work ahead cutting, splitting and stacking. Great captures of the woodpecker.
Great series. Lot of work done and more to go. Great hearing of people helping their neighbors. Beautiful shots of the blue jays. Mahalo for sharing.

A lot of work, but it should split fairly easily. I enjoy heating with firewood.

Thats one thing I don't miss!!!!
Nice set of images
That’s work--did a little of that myself the other day.
Very nice set Cindy - that's a nice load of wood!
When you are retired, Cindy, "work" is a four letter word (LOL). I am happy to see your hubby using a Stihl. I had mine for over 30 years until we moved "urban." My old neighbor is still using it.

It's not to bad....we have been cutting firewood for years so we have a system down pat! It was fun watching that woodpecker work too.

Thanks JoAnne....it's not as hard as it looks and we enjoy being outside.
That looks like lots of warm, winter nights to come.
