TIMBERRRR

Last week we were driving home from Wellman and had to stop at my parents to get something. We came at just the right time because they just happened to be chainsawing down a 100-year-old pine tree that had gotten struck by lightning a few years ago and was dead. Denver was enthralled! I stayed for awhile then left to get the groceries home and make lunch and Steve went there on his way from work to lunch and got in on the action, too. Denver couldn't wait to tell me all about it when he got home! What a fun experience for a very outdoorsy and explorative little boy!

Ready to pull it down with the big cable.
