Red maple work

Our long-time readers will recall the big double trunk red maple that blew down in July 2013.  We cut much of it a while back.  Today, we took out about 24 more feet of the two trunks (that had stood back up during our original cutting operation).  This is another half cord of wood!  The pieces are standing in preparation for splitting.

This wood is within easy sight of the house; unlike the big ash project, this will be easy to get home.  Note the baby oak in the middle of the third picture.  We took out a bunch of weeds around it today so the little one can grow to heights similar to some other oaks on this part of Hardwood Hermitage.
