Stan, I can only imagine that age plays a role in reducing ones enthusiasm to process and handle firewood. Reason I say that is that when the weather and conditions are ideal, harvesting trees from deadfall, blowdown, or diseased, damaged or trees that need to come down, for my firewood needs is something I really enjoy doing. Sure its work, but its a good kind of work, and as long as I can keep things at comfortable work height, its no real bother to me so far.
I've got just enough under cover to last most of a winter, but have logs to gather all over this place and trees to fall etc.
To catch up, I'll use some of my vacation time, seeing I've accumulated and or earned 5 weeks worth and have kept it intact so far this year. I don't have the time otherwise, but I can take advantage of it because my place of work is 7.3 miles away and I can keep the stove going round the clock for just the cost of me processing wood of my land. I can only hope to be able to keep doing my own firewood until old age, whatever age that is LOL !

I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
