In my case it wasn't the chainsaw, it was the hauling by hand. 300 cords is about right. I have been doing this for 28 years. Have an MRI and Neurologist appointment on May 31. Looks like might have nerve damage. Most frustrating part is I was doing 90 minutes a day on the elliptical and had dropped 17 pounds. I have twelve cords of red oak sitting on my property i have to get done somehow by next winter.

Bring your steel toe boots, jeans and heavy long sleeve shirts and a pair of HD Leather gloves...when would you like to start?


That almost describes what I wear to work everyday. Workboots, carhartt pants, collared shirt. I run a 144 acre campus for a private school. Since we started building non-stop I'm mostly in an office all day.

That's why I hope to sell 1M Cap Gorillas ( www.capgorilla.com ) and buy a square somewhere with better weather, hunting, and fishing.

Cowboy, if I was 40 years younger I would take you up on it.
MLotzii, I have the hunting and fishing, but the weather sucks four months out of the year. This year, more like six months. I am kicking around checking out New Mexico for a getaway for winters. Anybody have any inputs or comments? Always been curious about the Mogollon rim area, ever since I read every Louis La'Mour book cover to cover.

I lived in NM for a while, NO WAY, take a pass on that. Liberal govt, poor state, Indian lands, dirty, dusty. And I lived in Santa Fe...

My impression for the short time I traveled there was that it was full of people who didn't get along with Texans. :cowboy:
I have some tool collecting friends there, all scientist types with very Utopian outlooks, the debate can get lively at times!
If you gave me a choice I'd find a spot in Texas, very strong on property rights!

Two notes: The new email newsletter system automatically sends that T-shirt solicitation 90-days or so after someone joins the newsletter.

Lastly, I've often thought how great it would be to live on the Great Lakes during the Summer, and Texas coast during the summers.

Here is some property I owned and WAS going to build a house on it when I retired. This is the north side of Lake Whitney Texas. The property is called White Bluff it sets on White Bluff Ranch. I could walk out to the edge of my property and water about about 110 feet STRAIGHT down. I actually owned the White Bluff of White Bluff Ranch

THEN I got married

Took my wife there and said this is where we are going to build our home...she looked at me and said you must be crazy we are out in the middle of nowhere, I am not living here...so I sold it and cried when I did...

no kidding, brought tears to my eyes to let it go, but wife was just too much of a city girl to come to the country that fast I guess. She called home: Paris, London, Madrid, LA, Miami and NYC and suddenly I want to build a house in the middle of Texas on some huge lake...But dear, Dallas is only an 1 1/2 hr away. The good news is she finally figured out that living out in the country is a much better life but it took 10 years of convincing...so we are finally here, just not on the lake which I really miss.
