Yeah, that's a decent sized tree! Glad it went where he planned.

Is there anyplace where you could have
that tree milled into lumber ?

It's not very hard wood, and rots easily. Not worth the effort.

They generally do go where he plans, unless it's been dead a long time. Very hard to predict where a dead tree will fall, as they don't always rot evenly. This one had some dead branches, but the tree was alive.

yeah, around here we have red pine.
it is no good for exterior building. but
I had a pile of it that I used for building
shelves in the garage..
deer hunting is going on around here.
this morning a doe and her spring fawn
ran across the road where I have never seen
a deer cross in the 50 plus years we lived out here.
something pushed them out of their comfort zone.
our doe and her two fawns are still hanging around
our yard. IDK if the buck is still here.

Hope you all had a great holiday!
Went to Lowes and bought 2 ceiling fans, a step stool and a metal flower thing. I was supposed to get labs drawn today but lab was closed. I tried to call, but it just kept ringing busy.
Hoping it doesn't rain this weekend. Hubby wouldn't let me put tarps down to try to keep the ground dry where my studio will go. Supposed to be delivered Monday.
