It's been awhile since I made a post... a lot has happened. I swear I've been trying to get info up for you all to read, but our internet has been a buggah. We have a Verizon Access Card. It sucks don't get one. It seems like every time I try to get online, the "device is not inserted". Um, yes it is. I'll get on with this post (while the darn thing is working).
We had a couple trees break in a wind storm last fall. John Eldon came over and fell what was left standing and bucked it into movable pieces. We are so grateful for his man skills. He's a great friend.
Then we let the wood sit for ages...
In January or February, we moved the logs and limbs out from the overgrowth. Timber mowed the tangled uluhe and increased out backyard about a third. It had the chance to grow... but there hasn't been much rain so the area is still just dirt.
I finished making nice stacks for Eddie, the wood chip man, to come over. He drove a HUGE truck and one scary powerful machine into the back yard. Mark came over to help Timber and Eddie chuck the wood into the chipper. They chipped all the piles in about 2 hours. It was quite a physical task. I am glad Mark came over to help. I am really glad the guys were safe.
The trees made an entire dump truck full of wood chips. We are going to use that pile of chips to mulch around our fruit trees.
Done, and done. Well, it will take us awhile to distribute the chips. At the rate the project has progresses, we might have it done by the fall.
