Back on course




I can understand why only about 2 percent of people who start blogs keep them up. Fall has been very busy (and I wish I found the time to post, because I could go back and see what was keeping me so occupied). But with Fall, closing up house in Maine, back in school, etc., these things just get pushed to the back burner.




Now I don't know if I should just continue on, or try and catch up (probably a combination of both).




One of the best things for my fall tasks has been getting a chain saw. We have lots of trees, and the forestation has gotten out of control in the past 20 years or so. I bought a 14" Poulan, and it did the job for a few trees, so while I got my money's worth, it was disappointing when it died so soon. My new one is a Stihl, with "Easy Start", and it is wonderful for people like me who are not managing a woodlot, but just want to clean up the landscape.




The pictures here are of a stray sapling that became a large tree while we weren't looking. Now it's firewood.
