    Shelby stanga is the reason I like to watch as well. Did you see that episode last season where a cottonmouth bit him a bunch of times? That guy is crazy beans for sure.

    Cat Rescuers Beware

    That makes me think of the plankton in sponge bob square pants. Maybe they have already taken over the world.

    Orchids

    That white one looks like mother goose from my vantage. Here in Idaho, seems like winter was here only a few weeks. Now with the days getting noticeably longer seems as if spring is just around the corner. I just finished putting the finishing touches on two yards of compost. It's super...

    Video Games

    Gears of War I play when time allows. Sometimes get wrapped up in it but I can be just as neglectful when working on a garden idea or building a deck.

    Big Sur Trees, and a few other things

    Those kilns are cool. It would be cool to know some history on them. Along with old pictures of the men and environment.

    Let's Hear It For 3 Strand!

    I just do not like coming to the end and wishing I had more. Last one was 15, this one is 25. Maybe just whip up a 15 as well. Seem to like the 15 for most things. Then I have a 40' with a hitch climber and a distel that has not seen a lot of use lately.

    Whizzy

    While it did still fall where I faced it. My intention was to fall it elsewhere. I did think of it blowing right through the whizzy step so I guess it had a back up plan that worked beautifully.

    I think your right. Although I did wedge it off it's natural favor. What I attempted was to alter the fall, mid way through.

    Stig, I did. Not gun it more to the left because the eave. What I was trying to do is fall it along the eave then swing in under it. But it didn't work out and I still got a good fall only had to walk a little farther to the chipper.

    Like I said above with the tree species I think it was asking a lot with the brittle nature of sub alpine fir. Anywho, I'll try again sometime when the situation presents itself.

    For those that care about the building. It is scheduled for demo. So if I hit it, no big deal. Stig, I think putting a much smaller face in height would have gotten better results for what I was trying for. I was trying to swing it up under the eave there at the corner of the house. As it...
