This weekend was rainy and wet - the perfect time to cut trees and remove stumps. We're clearing out some of the big pines in the front yard to open it up. The ground was saturated - standing water in the holes, so it was easy digging.
A come-along between stumps helped lift-n-loosen them.

The stumps came out eventually, so we put down 2 other trees and limbed them.
The kids are out this week for Christmas vacation - being bored is worse than anything, so we have plenty of work to avoid boredom.
yeah!
