Cedar tree murder

It was a sad day around here.  We had to cut down a cedar tree in our pasture since it was leaning and it increased it's lean every rain storm this spring. It looked like we were going to lose it anyways.  Instead of a big hole in the ground with huge roots sticking up or the cedar falling on our goats or cows, we decided that we needed to be pro-active and chop it down.





Now getting your chain saw out and revving it up to chop down a tree is really cool if your a guy.......as for me, I spent the few short minutes it took to saw it down in prayer that no one would get hurt.

We all stood around that tree about in tears.  It took a lot of years for it to get as big as it did to provide shade and shelter for human and animal alike and in no time at all it was destroyed.

So now we will have plenty of kindling and fire wood to keep us warm next winter and the goats have a new "toy" to jump on.
