Tree Trimming

We have a few days of weather conducive to working on the East Lot, so yesterday evening, Lisa broke out the extension cords and an electric saw to tackle some tree trimming.

Tree Trimming (Before)

This tree is very bushy and clearly has not been trimmed in years. Lisa went to work on it to clear much of the low-hanging branches so that we can access the area around the tree more easily.

Tree Trimming (After)

My job was to haul the stuff Lisa cut to the brush pile, except for a few pieces that are big enough to use as firewood. We spent about an hour clearing brush before calling it an evening.

Today, I got enough weeds cleared along the fence diving the the two lots that I could take the wheelbarrow all the way through. I forgot to get a picture of it before I started, but a massive amount of brush and weeds had grown up during the summer around the utility trailer, which we will need to (I hope) get pallets of Press-to-Logs from Big R. I spent and hour or so hacking away at the weeds, filling the wheelbarrow, and hauling it to the every-growing brush pile. Now I need to go remember to go buy a burn permit. Who knows? We might even have an opportunity to burn brush before spring.
