A week after we closed on the property, Me, Eric and Todd all went to work. We had to clear a driveway just to gain access to the place. We worked hard, fast and furious. I can't tell you how many times I tripped over the stumps that Todd left sticking out of the ground. I had suggested that we leave a foot or so to tie on to when we pull them up. Todd decided to cut them at a sharp angle like spikes sticking out of the ground. After a few near failed suicide attempts while tripping over them and falling hard to the ground, we decided to cut them off at ground level.
Here's a picture of the clearing after we were done. Remember the picture of the "For Sale" sign? This is the same spot after we cleared the trees and briars.
In the process of working on the clearing one day, the Grand-sons all wanted chairs to sit on. Well...I did have a chainsaw in my hand...
A cedar stump makes an interesting chair.
Here's a riddle for you. How do you stump three smart little boys?
Answer: Give them all one to sit on.
