Look out for a crazy English guy wielding one of these......
Neil's newest plaything.....a gigantic chainsaw. No sooner than he had this thing out of the shop and into the back of the car we were headed out into the middle of the woods on a pretty chilly day, up some logging road in search of suitable "decorative" stumps for use at Breakers.
We had been given some top secret information from an unnamed source as to a good spot for stumps and boy was that unnamed source right! Piles and piles of beautiful wood abandoned by loggers and left to rot.
Neil had the most fun he's had in ages while I watched out for cougars, wolves and bears. The kids? Oh yeah, they sat in the car watching a Charlie and Lola DVD.
No live trees were harmed in the making of our stumps.
I was starting to need the toilet and Neil became slightly delirious with testosterone and logging adrenaline and began beating his chest and making guttural noises. At that point I thought we ought to call it a day and haul our load home.
