    Irene took this old oak down in my backyard before she headed north. Made a bit of a crash. Lotsa firewood here. I might need a new chainsaw before this is all over.

    Note to GRM staff: My GRM T-shirt is in a deplorable state, and I could use a new one.

    Are you referring to the brace on my right knee? Old running injury. It acts up every now and then. I figured as long as I was being a lumberjack, that the extra support was probably a good thing.

    That's going to take a while.

    As straight as it is you might call a mill and see if they will buy it from you. There is some mighty pretty lumber in that tree.

    I actually went out and had a scone because of this thread, though it wasn't buttered.

    When I saw the tread title, I thought this was going to be the subject.
