Downed Tree

We have been having violent thunderstorms, not too surprising given the high temps and humidity.  Last night we had a tree come down in the storm and it ended up partly across the driveway.  It was a large beech and they are all sick by the time they get that large so it is not too surprising that it fell.  But the wood seems to be good, so we'll get lots of firewood.

Here is my trusty lumberman starting the long process of cutting it up.  Then I get to split the wood.
