Walks and work in winter

Walks since the ice storm thankfully show very limited tree damage from the ice storm.  Snow covered wood in the forest reminds one of the ceaseless task here to keep the firewood supply in mind.

Although not the most preferred tree here, black cherry has a place.  This double trunk stands near a key walking trail, with snowy conifers in the background.

The bowsaw went to work yesterday and today.  Pictured below is a downed white ash spring pole.  The current ice storm did not cause the lean in the tree.
