Bit of a sluggish day today, in part thanks to drizzle on what was forecast to be a dry day. Tree work really needs to be getting done though as buds are breaking on some already.
So, this morning I sharpened and adjusted the chainsaw blade, mixed up fuel and got the saw started and warmed up since it hasn’t been used for a few months. I had one tree that was overhanging various outbuildings including a greenhouse taken down professionally in January, but the next most urgent ones to be dealt with (also overhanging outbuildings) weren’t so big that I felt I couldn’t fell them myself, using a rope to pull them against the lean.
And so it was. Firewood for next winter from the trunks. The rest can go through the chipper and will be used for paths in the veggie plot.
