Took down a crusty tree at my house yesterday. Bigleaf maple damaged by fire a long time ago. Fungi since then.
I need a bandsaw mill. This maple looks interesting.
My neighbors just put their house on the market, so I'm trying, more than usual to keep things tight and clean. Burned a brush pile, and chips a couple accumulated piles, trailers unloaded, larger trailer and mini-loader at my neighbors for service, lawn mowed, some privacy fencing started to compliment my privacy trees, in consideration of my neighbor's sale, and my own interest.
Weekend with the kid. Going to build some planter boxes and plant seeds for the first annual garden. Carrots, Cucumbers, giant pumpkins, flowers, something else. We'll get some 'starts', too.
Going to work on 2-wheeler skills. She's about there. I let go a few seconds at a time. Riding slightly uphill helps. Being able to instinctively-balance while pushing pedals and wiggling one's body, without accelerating too fast, is good. Practicing a lot on braking. A bit of hand-brake while pedalling downhill helps.
I built the first sanctioned-US Forest Service Log Ride on a mountain biking trail, I was told by the USFS engineer. My boss, the engineer, and I had to do a test run, for safety sake, on the whole trail. The engineer taught me that log-rides are way easier while pedalling and dragging a rear brake. Like magic.
