the benefits of excercise

2 Replies, 346 Views

I exercise during one season of the year, normally. Spring is when I lay in my supply of firewood for the winter after next. This time I found a huge oak tree that had fallen over, tipping up a root ball about 15' across. the trunk was 24" diameter 35' up to the first fork. The upper limbs are as big as some of the trees I usually cut for firewood. I brought the tree up the hill with my tractor in 5' lengths, because that's all I could lift with a boom on the rear of the tractor. I calculated that those 5' logs weigh approximately 1,500 pounds each. When cut to stove length (20") each log weighs about 500 pounds. Using a vertical splitter, I have to wrestle those 500 pound logs onto the base plate to split them. So yeah, I'm getting some exercise.
