Tony vs Nature. Tony is the VICTOR!

Technically nature had already won in the battle for this tree which turned out to be stone cold dead when we bought the place (unbeknownst to us because it was still wintertime during our closing). The other big tree on our property is also dead and is going to be disassembled some future weekend.

This is Tony's second week of tree cutting. Our neighbor Charles came over and committed four hours in the heat to helping with his chainsaw. Tony used my Mom's chainsaw which is featured in the second pic.






With the tree in front of our house and this one Tony has made quite a pile of firewood. Not that we ever use our fireplace, but it is nice to have.
