Today we had two pine trees west of the house cut down. They were mostly dead and we decided to have them taken out and plant one new tree in their place. It's amazing how much shade even a mostly dead tree provides as I already miss the two trees. Now we (Jim) has the fun job of playing with his chain saw and cutting it up. They say you get warmed twice 1) when cutting the wood and 2) when sitting by the fire burning it. I think we'll get warmed three ways if we have to cut this up in this heat and humidity.
