Yesterday my son and I went out to our lease to gather firewood. I found a half dozen hickory trees that had been down for many years. Good and dry , long with 12" bases down to 4". Jarrod cut and I loaded. He started on the last one and it was wedged between 2 trees at the small end. It looked straight at about 25' long and I stood back behind him 6' next to the fallen tree while made the 1st cut. All of a sudden the tree released its engery. It throw me about 4 feet. If I had been standing about 2-3' from it it probably would have broke both my legs beneath the knee from the energy snap.
Defiantly a wake up call.
Today is my 40 anniversary and I'm thanking God I can enjoy this day.
