CHAINSAW

No self respectin' Ouachita Mountain Boy wants to be caught without his chainsaw. And true to form, we brought ours to the Rocky Mountains with us. We've had it for quite some time now. It's a Johnsered Professional model, 21" roller bar, compression release and all. Most of our kin folks prefer a Stihl saw. We like Stihl ok, but got a deal on this one. Any how, the point is, give a Redneck a chainsaw and a bit of time and there is no tellin' what you will wind up with.
The Cajun Birdman and I walked away from camp, saw in hand, found a tree big enough to catch our intrest, and the chips began to fly ! Soon we were examining the burl of the slabs of wood we had cut, and were talking about how pretty they were.
We decided that they were just too nice to bust up into fire wood right away. So, they became temporary tables !
Betty enjoys the extra table space around the campfire. Tables today, firewood tomorrow !

Phew! For a moment, I feared a sad tale about a tree, a ladder, and a chainsaw!
