Heritage Tree - Treated Respectfully

So - I’ve told about the heritage tree we had to get cut down. I told about the permit required - I’ve told so much - how much do I need to tell. Rhetorical that question is.

Here are some images from today followed by a link to the original article about the heritage tree:

We worked our asses off to get this piece in position - and the 10000-lb winch helped a lot.

The fella there is one hell of a hard worker - and his daughter attends the same high-school as my wife did - Go figure!

Hard work pays off I reckon.

Now here is the first story about this tree.

One thing leads to another I reckon - no doubt on that!

Here is an edit today:

~~ OK - lets observe the first cut made 82 seconds of video ~~

And now - later in the process:

Professionally done on that first log and to be fair - let me share this as well.

So what you see there all came from the one big log at the bottom of the tree. Oh my - there is some “sweet” Southern Red Oak - from a tree struck by lightening there - and I paid the fella with the mobile sawmill to come and treat said tree with respect.
