Power like I have never known

 Look at the size of this saw!! It is much more power full than It looks! ms660 I believe..I bought this for the tree service guy to do some work for me and remove some very large trees..To trade in Labor is Honorable Beyond Measure...

So the very temporary trio is as you see it,only to be torn apart tomorrow!!I gotta tell ya I thought the ms 290 was the best saw I have ever known..Now I realize that it is merely a trim saw..I actually felt pain in my hands holding the 660..I nearky was crushed because I cut the tree down so fast it didnt have time to lean into the notch.It was a huge barber chair and was full of bees..They were very docile and will be captured tomorrow by some local bee keepers..
How beautiful this was to have for such a short time!!

I cant think of a better example to show where the Corps says to place rock.Ignore the limb in the water ,it is only temporary but the cove created from the rushing waters of the storm drain is a great place to stack some rock..I have sent in a request and I am sure to here a response soon enough...I wish I could afford limestone,it would have a better look.I shall place rubble here carefully in case I get some big natural rocks..

Huge Hollow Oak

 That is a c60 grain truck under this 13 foot 9 inch circumference oak tree.My friend and your local tree guy is going to drop this as whole as possible..
I must see this and I actually worked out a trade with him to get other trees fell and stumps ground..
Ps he is a heck of a cook and is soon to be for hire as such..
Pss he will be roasting a hog for my stepsons wedding when he returns from China with his fiance ( Jake Pinnick wudangswords.com.)Not good with Links so this is all I got tonight...Look it up though,Jake is living an extraordinary life that makes so proud of him.Go Jacob and Ling Ling..lil shout out and we wish you home soon and safe!!!

Look how blue this wood has become inside the tree,I guess it is because there is metal inside the tree..I have heard it many times but this is the first time I have seen it.

Flat tire

Thank you Kiesters for saving my but when it came to replacing my tractor tires.I welcome your generosity and thank you for your support.
I suggest to look at this company next time you need a mechanic..I cant say enough good things about them,My lady has always used them for her car repair and nobody else..Two nearly new tires for the Hoe will be on tomorrow.
Man I am so thankful..I love it when I run into good people who see what I am trying to do here..

some stuff

 I seem to get a little to brave at times,I can see where a cab would be much safer..

Look what this tree root has done to live in this litterfull site..

where to begin

how do you say all the things that have happened when you have a hard time keeping up..I guess we do a little breakdown..The first thing is that I have been so busy with work related issues  that I seem to drop writing so  I don't say something that may affect my job..I have been driving 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 and a half hours to work for the last couple of weeks.I just don't have the heart to do it anymore..I cant believe that I cannot find work closer.I just cannot take it anymore so I am on my own for a while...If I wouldn't have blown a tractor tire or needed to buy a 1400 dollar chainsaw to trade for getting some trees and stumps removed I would be in better shape..I will come out ahead a little on the trades I make ,but nothing unfair.
I don't  know how I am going to be able to afford to continue but that is the test like always..I am interested to see how this whole thing is going to work out with the elimination of the dry basin proposal( which I should post) and the reconstituted plan of removing all the trees and planting along the creek beds to form an impenetrable wall of PAW PAW trees,then planting the remaining clear area in either hybrid walnuts as sponsored retirement trees( you give me a little money up front and I get the tree to you choice of people a t its maturity after 25 to 30 years for a percentage of the log)..Or Plum trees.The walnuts are a potential gold mine for investors as well maintained forested veneer quality walnuts can bring upwards of 12 grand.The Paw Paw trees should produce enough fruit to keep up with expenses as well as stop persons from entering the creek because if you rough them up they smell terrible..I strongly encourage you to look up the paw paw and  look at ksu's research.I will share that they are not propagated by bees as much as mosquitoes and flies.They are used in cancer treatment,and they love creek  and river sides..Native Americans ate them and propagated them all over the U.S.  I cannot tell you every thing it would take hours..You can learn as much as you like from google.In my application they will allow for the creek to flourish  as it becomes a much more dense area. If I plant plumbs there will be lots of food and fruit within two years..
So The orchard is complete minus the paperwork and a lot of cash to get the areas cleaned up and planted..I am quite nervous how this is going to happen,but I am also excited as I know deep down that it will happen.I guess I can see a few cards that havent been played yet,I just hope that the deck isnt stacked..I am not a good gambler,but I know the game..I need good vibrations to make this thing happen,how could you not want to be a part of such an amazing plan.I still see this as a world wide change for the betterment of all man kind.Yea ,I know it could be bigger and more community driven than any other program in its category.A virtual United Way or Red Cross of Americas infrastructure.I dont think I see any application where this program wouldn't benefit everyone.I just think I am the wrong guy that was given this remarkable gift. I know help is out there,it has shown its face and reached out its hand.I am holding back for some reason,I believe it to be lack of funding or security in my job..Whatever the cause the solution is the same,I have to do the paperwork..

working in private

 so I havent posted much recently because my attitude hasnt been very good. I have been in a sort of funk.I have also just been struggling with what to do with the wet land areas. I guess I will make a decision soon.The rains have started to move back in now, but I ma sure I lost several trees to the drought.I hope everything starts to bounce back..I believe the mushrooms have died off and so have the soy beans..I got to go..Just thought I better get something up while I had a couple of minutes..
