3-19-2026 Made significant progress today. Thank God I did not become a squishy today!

This morning I was quite nervous going out to cut the logs into section and then pieces to remove them from the hillside beside the State Route, because of the slope of the hill and being they were laying on top of each other crisscrossed. I asked a neighbor to text me every few hours to make sure I was not pinned under a log. Thank God it all went well.

THIS WAS MY SURVEY BEFORE STARTING ANY THE CUTS.

FIRST CUT TO END OF THE DAY LOOK.

MY WOOD PILES HAVE GROWN!

@HumanEarth Well, you and @Levenrack were all snow bound and I could not wait for the thaw! LOL

Obviously, I worked smarter

@HumanEarth I cannot have a timber farm and be afraid of my work/craft. I took a solid Seven days scoping and figuring all the bad things to be/stand and not to do before hitting it the wise and smart way.

@HumanEarth Damn it! Sorry about that.

I cut those large round chunks and rolled them downhill when no cars were coming, hand rolled them across the state route and did a short squat to lift them into the bed of my UTV to save my back. That manly lift and carry shit is for 16- to 20-year-olds. The UTV bed was roughly 1 to 12 inches higher than the road surface off to the side of the road.
